Hello, Well, here is an update. I have an internal VIA AC'97 soundcard on my K7V motherboard, and newpcn recognize it under 4.2 and on that card, the sound is perfect, wheras the sound on my SBLive is alot less clearer and present constant static. So I downloaded the trial OSS version (http://www.opensound.com/) and was plaisantely surprised by the result. No more crackling. No more pops. No more statics. It's 30$, but it's worth it. I know that's not the perfect solution, but it shows that the current newpcm could be enhanced and that the problem I had were not hardware-related.
