Audio driver: which PCI sound cards are natively supported?

[Guest Andrea.Treggia]

I have a customer with a Windows Server 2003 SBS Standard with Windows Audio

service activated.

I *must* install a PCI audio card on this server.

I have read that some Creative Sound Blaster is not supported but that

someone

has installed the Windows XP drivers. I don't like very much this strategy

and I prefere the use of the native drivers.

 

I can't found on the HCL a PCI audio card that I can buy in Italy.

I have tryed a Creative CT4790 that work fine, but the customer's server do

not support PCI card at 5V, only 3.3V.

 

Now the question:

Which sound cards are supported from the native audio drivers of Windows 2003

server SBS?

 

Very much thanks for the reply.

Just pick one. Usually if the OS don't support it, it will include the

drivers on a disk.

I have been surpised by how many drivers that Server 2003 has.
