Well, as for the hardware incompatibility. I have not heard this, but
even if it were true, it would simply require changing of code in the BIOS to add support. There should be a BIOS update if this were the case. Second, I would suggest a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 (you can decide if Audigy 2 is worth the extra money, otherwise go with the original Audigy). Finally, Sound Blaster Live are decent cards, but are going to be outdated very soon as Creative is looking to release their Audigy 3 here pretty soon. I would wait for that and then get an Audigy 2 after the prices drop  Nathan McNulty Jerry Wong wrote: > I heard that there is problem in using K7 mobo with sound blaster live.
