Solve : Hopeless Newbie needs help with sound card?

Answer»

I'm taking a stab at putting a BAREBONES together.  My mobo is Biostar uATX T6100-939 w/ Athlon 64
3700+ San Diego core.  OK, the BASIC question: what happens with the onboard sound if I install a good
sound card?  Same question for an add-on video card.  Thanks for any INPUT. :-?You would need to disable the onboard sound in the BIOS. Usually that is not NECESSARY with a video card, but check your manual.Thanks.  I'm sure that question is so basic that the specs I've been reading fail to address this.
So I can PROCEDE with new sound and video cards, and the mobo can be set up to disregard the
onboard sound and video, and accept the cards.  Accurate statement?100% true. Just make sure you have the right type of slot for the video card you will be adding.  Checked that out, at least.  PCI-E for the video and a PCI for the sound.  Thanks very much
for the help. You're welcome and post back if any further questions.
