i just drove and bought me a new sound card, i have a onboard sound card on the MB but i do not have a Gameport.

i got a creative sound blaster 4.1 digital.

i disabled the on board sound card and poped in the creative one.

results:
when first booting with the new sound card windows recognise and install it by himself - it didnt even used the creative driver cd, which kinda pisses me off.

i get the following massege from the gameport:

I seem to recall Windows XP does not support gameport. Can't say much more then that. Don't have XP. There is allot of threads RE XP and gameport stuff in this section. Might wanna do a search.

You didn't say if you were using XP or not. You might try disabling the OB sound in the BIOS, since I am guessing you just did it in Device Manager.
