 We now know that the sound card on the machine is a Sound Blaster Live! and the

-Soundcard Matrix</uri> page and select Creative Labs from the drop down menu.
-You will be taken to the Creative Labs matrix page where you can see that the SB
-Live! uses the <c>emu10k1</c> module. That is the information we need for now.
