Is it possible to run a pci sound card and the onboard sound together? I am going to buy the creative x-fi music, which will cater for my 7.1 speakers, but that will leave me with no microphone input. I do not want to buy two pci cards. I've researched this around the net, but so far only found that: 'Yes it is possible, but not straightforward'. I could buy a USB mic but I'd prefer to use the onboard.
Thanks, PC
