Thanks for the info. I'll try that in a few days. Meanwhile, I'm back
at the status quo ante with the card removed and thus running again
from Linux. I wouldn't at all be surprised that Windows can do bad
things for peripherals -(.- using undocumentedf features, etc.

It turns out that Debian/Ubuntu can't seem to make the Ensonic sound
card work anyway. Maybe it's a glitch in the newer kernel/alsa (in
comparison to RH), or the RH kernel/alsa has somespecific patch that
makes things work. I'll do a little more digging to see if I can make
the nforce onboard sound work.
