When I received the sound card and have infected everything worked perfectly. Plug and play as it should be. Only once you the map once again sets out and infects (which is common in a laptop) set the sound and can be activated only in stereo and not 5.1. Update, drivers and various tricks of forums have since not helpful. If it works then the sound is clean and the quality of properly. Unfortunately they do not always do that. The two microphone inputs for stereo recordings are awesome. At this point, the map keeps its promises.
Conclusion: If you replace a laptop soundcard will not suitable. But in order perfectly to expand the recording functions of a desktop PC.
