Sciz,

Realtek HD Audio was a integrated sound chip on my Intel D102GGC2 mobo. No PCI sound card. Nothing special required. The Realtek HD manager was just part of the driver software that came straight from Realtek instead of some OEM or mobo manufacturer. I have a Intel 64 bit 3 GHz P4. The computer itself is a eMachines T5048A. Not the T5048 as it was labeled LOL, but that is ok. The T5048A is much better.

You can probably find a good cheap sound card at any computer store for what you need and want. Most of them are integrated into the mobo now.
