Even if you can't disable it in the bios you can in windows. So you can still put a pci sound card in and it will work.

When I go into a computer store I lose all means of reason for some reason.

TUSL2-C will also come without audio, and even if you dont disable the onboard audio in BIOS you can certainly add another card in a PCI slot and use it. set the preferred device as this card in Multimedia Properties in the Control Panel. you will just loose on a IRQ. its precious.

YOu can use a sound card in ANY motherboard, regardless of whether or not it has onboard sound. In fact, you can run most soundcards and onboard sound simultaneously. I don't get onboard sound because I know I'm not going to use it. If you don't like the onboard sound, disable it. I recommend if you get the TUSL2-C with onboard sound, and would rather use your Creative card, go for it!
