I also find that most integrated sound cards in motherboards work well for the most part. Just got to make sure it is a well known brand. I also wouldn't bother spending too much $$$ for a sound card. Unless your a diehard gamer, then it may be handy to get one of the better ones.Warhead wrote: Well christmas is approaching. Might just get myself a new soundcard that is a retail model and not an OEM model.

WEll, My mobo is brand new so I might give the onboard sound a try. I believe it is by Realtek based on the drivers I installed with it. I was always under the impression that you needed a sound card simply because onboard sound does sound as well.

WOOOOT I now have it fixed ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
After digging through the dell site I found that you should be able to get sound drivers to update using Creatives autoupdate. I did that and Warzone now has sound and does not crash. ;D
