Does anyone know if there are any problems with using a Sound Blaster Live
sound card (CT4870) on the A7N8X Deluxe Rev. 2.0 board? I would like to
have both enabled at the same time since I'm planning on using the on board
audio for my main 5.1 speaker set in the room where the computer is and
connecting the Sound Blaster Live to speakers setup in the kitchen.
Apparently you can configure WinAmp to play to a specific audio device, so
this way I can have different music playing in the office and kitchen. Also
is there any problem with having the on board joystick port as well as the
Sound Blaster Live joystick port enabled? I have two joysticks and it would
just be so much easier to just leave both of them plugged in all the time.

Thanks,
Harry

I use the combo and it's fine..
In v3 winamp you can choose the device under Audio/DirectSound
