I've never seen a computer blow up so my vote is go for it ! That card sells for $.99 on eBay with various, outrageous amounts for shipping, so I don't think you have much to lose ? I'd give it a shot and not expect much. I doubt seriously that it could cause any damage. I googled the card and no caveats turned up. Plug it in and stand back !!!!!!!

It says something like Windows doesn't recognize the logo. Should I not install it or do you think it's OK to do so. The message makes one think my computer will blow up if I do so.
