Sound Blaster Notebook

I want to buy a Sound Blaster X-Fi audio card for my laptop, but I want to know if I have the card in my laptop does the software stop and return to my backt default audio software for portable speakers?

Chances are the answer is no.

You will probably disable the sound card home when you install the Sound Blaster.

When the card if removed, it is possible that Windows will try to reactivate the original chip, but it is equally likely to give you an error message saying it could not start the map.
