Just how to pick the right sound card and how to find out if it will work with your pc. Thanks. And if it helps, im running a Gateway, Windows Vista laptop, brand new and hevily modded. And I think I will run the sound card I get on the family computer I use most of the time, so that way everyone can enjoy it. The family computer has upgraded speakers but thats not even worth mentioning, its a Sony Vaio-RB. We're running windows XP on it.

Thanks for the help

You're pretty much screwed for sound cards, unless your model has a space for a small form-factor sound, which will probably end up running to your original plugs anyway.

But, in regards to "modding" a notebook soundcard, I guess you can do this:
Step 1.) Buy this: Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS for Notebook


Step 2.) Buy this:
Your Glitzy Gem Phone Complete Design Kit (Princess Pink) [294-deco-PKRIB] : Strapya World of Japan, International Store, Japanese Cell Phone Straps, Gadgets and Keitai Accessory store


Step 3.) Place "bling kit" on sound card.

Step 4.) Prepare for ridicule

But, honestly, there's likely nothing you can do to modify such a small component. Even on desktops, I don't really the point. What would there be to gain from upping anything on a sound card?
