I probably have the same card as you, I just went out and bought a
soundblaster 16PCI because my new motherboard doesn't have any ISA slots.
Unfortunately, the card is detected and does play sound, but it is soo
distorted you can't really recognize anything.  I was just wondering if
you hard this distortion problem as well, I haven't seen anything on the
lists about it until now.

Thanks,
Andrew
