This was never said,

However..... why generate empty process usage? why throw a spanner in the works for audio problems etc? He is never going to use the on board card, so why have it enabled, using ram and resources it doesnt need to!

Please bear in mind, ramrod is building a performance machine. Not just some box to bog down with crap

All he needs to do is fit a small pc speaker to hear the beeps if something should go wrong, and he can ignore the ac97 P.O.S that comes on the board
