Hi, welcome to TSF

Before you can install your new sound card you have to uninstall the onboard sound software in Control Panel > Add or remove programs.
You also have to disable the onboard sound in BIOS.

Thanx Nicholas for replying so soon, I discovered the bit about disabling the onboard audio and I removed the new card, disabled the audio, installed the new card and I am being told by the driver disc that I need a "chip" of somekind and that my computer is not set up with this "chip" so I can't install the driver from the disc.

Is this the card you bought? http://ritmotech.com.au/satotech/pro...0511c531767d5e

What chip does it ask for?
