Sound Card for Notebook


I just got the Audigy 2ZS Notebook THX PCIMCIA Sound Card. I am dual booting, XP installation went smoothly but when I tried running FC3 with it in my computer seemed to stall on "Initializing Hardware....audio" I waited about 3-5 minutes with nothing happening. I then turned the computer on with the PCIMCIA card out then inserted the card after booted, my computer froze. Any suggestions on how to get my card to work? The sound is crisp and I just got my 5.1 speaker system ready....now I just need it working in FC3. Thanks

It sounds (no pun intended) to me like you're missing the driver module for the card.

You could check the sound card manufacturer's website to see if they offer one. If not, you'll need to do some googling. It's also possible there isn't one, but I'd search around before coming to that conclusion.
