Soundcards for WinXP

[agg123456789]

hey all. I have an aureal based sound card, so I need to get a new one for XP when it comes out. I also have an Abit KT7-RAID, with the 686A southbridge.... Is this one of the motherboards that has problems with Live! based cards? And if so, what options for soundcards do I have if I dont want to spend more than 50 bucks.....


Thanks.

you may happy to know tha txp happens to suport your aureal card. You may want to research this, but I am 90% sure it does.

Unfortunatly, yes it is supposed to... I popped my Turtle Beach Monteago II Plus into my brand spakin' new box, and it was a no go...

I downloaded the last Aureal set of windows 2000 Betas...and they also dident work.....nor did the NT 4's...


So, now that we KNOW that XP wont work, at least for me..... What options do I have?


Thanks

I just found the " Philips Rhythmic Edge" sound card at best buy for under 30 bucks..... Does anyone know if this is a good card, or if it will work under 2000/XP???


Thanks.

FWIW, I had no problem with my Vortex2-based Diamond MX-300. Sure, I don't think all the features of the chip were supported, but the sound worked at a minimum in XP.

I happened to snag a Santa Cruz for my new system anyway (giving away the box with the MX-300). The latest drivers from Turtle Beach have me pumping in XP as well.
