JAW's, Eloquence and Sound Cards?

Hi,

I run JFW 5.1, XP Home via Eloquence on a soundblaster Live Card.  The Card 
is now very very old and is making  loud explosive popping and crackling 
sounds, particularly when trying to read a fully loaded buffer of text that 
is unpunctuated.

I've tried many many times to get the correct update drivers for the 
Soundblaster, but with no success at all.  Even the Techy at the local 
Screwdriver Shop has had no success.

So, I'm contemplating getting a new and better sound card, but I'm aware 
there's some issue with JAW's and sound cards that's to do with the number 
of channels.  That is, to hear both JAWS Eloquence voice and other system 
sounds or music.

Is there any advice out there on what's a good high quality Card, that maybe 
gives surround sound etc, but still happily works with JAW's Eloquence 
voice?

Thanks,

Flyon Thewall
