New description:

 Haiku fails to boot. The booting process goes fine, until the desktop is
 supposed to appear, but only the blue background appears and the mouse is
 frozen, the system can't even be rebooted with ctrl-alt-del. After
 removing my Soundblaster Card and reinstalling Haiku it boots beyond a
 dead blue screen.
