Hi Alonso Cortez,
Although you can test the configurations you're suggesting both
with the dual sound and gameport for the joystick, the best bet
is to upgrade to USB technology which has replaced gameports
for several years now, and to keep your power and resource
drain lower by using only your onboard audio instead of the old
PCI card. The feeback has a 50/50 chance of working, try it.

| || Hi Alonso Cortez,
||
|| Although you can most likely get that game adapter to work with a
|| Gameport <> USB adapter, the force feedback won't work at all.
||
|| Purchasing a Gameport <> USB adapter is just throwing good
|| money away on a technology which although once great is now
|| outdated.. hense why computer manufacturers don't include game
|| ports anymore.
