The key here is having a computer that runs one of the older operating systems. You can't easily walk into a store and buy an old W7 machine anymore. Everything there is W10.

BUT... you can do what I and some others here have done. Build your own machine and buy a copy of one of the older OS's on the internet. You can still find XP and W7 easily. Build your own box and install your favorite OS and you'll be able to use that old card for a long time.

Depending on how tech oriented you are, you could also do a dual boot option on one of the newer boxes. Install XP or W7 as the secondary boot option. Problem solved or... perhaps a whole new set of problems.

The point is, install it on the machine you have, load the latest driver and see if it works. The worst that could happen is it doesn't work and it screws other things up so set a recovery point before proceeding and give it a try.
