On board Sound and Card Sound

[Glen]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

Can the onboard sound device (Motherboard) and a Sound card (SB16PCI) be used
in Windows XP at the same time (One set to Windows Sounds and Media and the
other set to be used with an independant program? When I go to Sound Devices
in control panel it only has the SB Soundcard in its list and not the on
board sound device. I need both of them in the list so I can chose which one
to use.. Is there anyway to do this.???

I also forgot to mention it (Onboard Sound) is set to Auto ( there is only
Auto and Disable).

On board sound is disabled when a PCI sound card is detected AFAIK.

So in order to have the use of to sound devices on there I would have to put
2 sound cards in the computer since the onboard on automaticcaly disables.
Right?

Google search got me this document. Sorry, but I was wrong previously. It
appears as if you can use the on board soundcard as well as a PCI soundcard
as WinXp supports multiple sound.
