Supercell

Are you sure winnt is what you need?

Its the card that your speakers are plugged into. It will have a column of 3.5mm sockets for mic, line in, line out/spk, and usually a 15 pin D joystick port.

However, you may have onboard sound where the connectors are on a riser card or on the panel used for kb/mouse/USB/serial/parallel - in that case you should check your motherboard manual or manufacturer's web site for details.

err yeah the thing your speakers plug into????

look on the card, get the model number off it, type that in in deja.com and you'll have the details then.

if it's on the mobo just ****in replace it cos onboard audio is the worst.

i was thinkin' of buying a new sound card cause it was working b4 and it was ****e so any brand or whatever is good and cheap?

depends what yer after in a card.
What do u use it for?

I've used just about every card I can think of off the top of my head, so maybe I can help

Personally running an sblive platinum 5.1, but putting an audigy in there soon.

Get a basic card. live if u can (they come fairly cheap for just cards, espesh if you get an OEM one).
