Couldn't you turn off the sound card on the motherboard?  Then when the Audigy 
is installed,
performance shouldn't be affected because additional IRQ's that the motherboard 
sound card was using
will be freed up.

You are right though, Jim doesn't really need to have the Audigy installed.  I 
to have     a sound
card on my motherboard.  However, I have turned it off in the bios.  I elected 
to put in a Sound
Blaster Platinum because I new that when performing a clean install of Windows 
XP home, XP would
find the audio drivers.  I would therefore have speech enabled from the 
earliest opportunity.
