I have had a look at a few:

Also i don't want to spend to much - no more than $40AU.

The brand name is in question there not being familiar with it. Turtle Beach, Creative, and at one time Pine were the three top brands. Have any links for vendors you can buy through?

You may still have to go slightly over $40AU there since the selection is limited. The Creative Audigy and X-Fi items are the ones seen there with one as low as $19. The last build saw great results for XP with the Audigy 4 Pro model while the X-Fi now gets more of the Vista support. Both still see Vista as well as XP drivers and provide good sound.
