Wow - mom and pop situations need sound cards? To replace their store CD player? To make sure they can hear well when they play games? To get bee-bopped when they make a mistake?
First thing they ask me to do when I set up a computer for a mom n pop - turn the distracting sounds OFF! They don't have time for games and don't want the extra distractions when they deal with a customer or a supplier. Some ask me twice if they really have to have a sound card at all.
Of course, your mom n pops might be different. Mine are sorta busy actually working, tryin to earn some money.
For my kids' computers I simply made sure I got a supported sound card - no biggee. (Of course, that's pretty tough for someone like Fred. Then he wouldn't be able to write a contraversial review. )
