Have you updated your motherboard BIOS to 3R?  I was having problems with my
soundblaster live platinum 5.1 popping when capturing video clips with the WW
BIOS.  When I updated it to 3R, no more pops or crackles.  I know yours doesn't
work at all, but perhaps a BIOS update will help because 3R is supposed to fix a
whole slew of problems with the SoundBlaster compatibility issues.  For what
it's worth, I don't use the highpoint controller on my KT7A-RAID.  I only have
two hard drives and one of them is only 4.3 gigs @ 5400RPM.  I'm not sacrificing
25 gigs of space for a little extra speed.
