I think I just wasted more time & money! The motherboard only has PCI-E slots free, can anyone suggest a good relatively cheap Sound card, that will run in XP, just not SoundMAX.
Thanks.
Oh, I hate that message. I download usually an older driver pack from creative and install it with that, and then upgrade the drivers if I should encounter problems.

As far as the card itself goes:
Minimum System Requirements:
Microsoft® Windows Vista™, Microsoft Windows® XP (Professional x64 Edition, Service Pack 2 or Media Center Edition)
