It sounds like you saw a bad install of drivers and other things on the first attempt. Something may have been missing or gone on incomplete with Windows itself. But at least you know it was software not hardware there.

Well it only took 9 pages to get it working, we are just that good :p

At least you got it going, it sucks having to return a board only to get a new one back and possibly have the same problem.

I knew it wasn't simply installing either SP1 or SP2 that caused the problem there. My first XP disk was an annoyance with having to download the SP2 and install that separately. But the last two builds still had onboard sound work without any problem until disabled for a Creative model. But the news is good there now with no need to rma anything!

Keep an eye out for a good deal on an XP disk with SP2 included if you have no plans for Vista? But that may turn out to be a topic for another thread sometime? I use the onboard seen on board mainly for emergencies if a card goes bad here. I still have to use an expansion card for other things like monitoring video captures with sound and of course running the EAX effects in games. That is where you may want to look at adding in a good card.
