Just read these posts and I have a boxed Turtle Beach Pinnacle, but I'm not sure if everything is still there. I'll see if I can dig it out and see if there's a code you can use.

Thank you! The number is on the product registration card, if you have one.

Found it!
I'll send it to you in a PM first, so you may try it.

Just wanted to thank CHiLL72 publicly for his effort. Unfortunately, the code didn't work because it went with the CD-ROM accompanying the Pinnacle Pro Studio package and not the one that came with the regular Pinnacle card. This code I need looks something like this: PIN200-XXX-XXX-002.

By the way: If anyone is looking for the Montego II, there is a dealer on eBay who has a couple of these sound cards new in blister for sale: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SEALED-TURTLE-BE … mMAAOSwdxJaqViW

I was able to pickup a single Montego II card for $5 yesterday and it works. Not sure if it was the real one or one that came with a Dell but it matches the pictures.

What's the difference between the real and the Dell one? Is the one from Dell worse in some ways?
Any way to tell them apart?

it's probably the exact same thing without the Turtle Beach logos printed on the PCB, I had an OEM Montego II that came in a plastic blister packaging together with manual and CD, just without the carboard box. It was the exact same card, it even had the TB part number and logo in the back.

The drivers from the Turtle Beach with Turtle Beach Montego II recive the message: Your Vortex adapter is not plugged into the primary PCI bus?

I had the same issue, resolved it in plugging the card into a different PCI slot.
