Onboard sound disabled because M-audio provides MIDI in/out and handling
from the card. Onboard audio does not. Suggest other card that has MIDI
handling with 2 in/2 out and I'd get it. Creative had one but it was only
stage one, I have been unhappy with Creative since they lied about
Vista-compatible drivers. Also Creative MIDI card is out of production.
Tried UEFI and it does not work on my computer, I have to reflash BIOS for
MBR setup. Back to square one. Suggestions welcome.
