The sound card rear connections are as follows: *digital out for 5.1 support (6 channel SPDIF output) *Line in *Mic in *sb1394 Firewire port *telephone answering device in *analog/digital cd audio in *15 pin MIDI/joystick port extension header *and all the 6.1 plugs for speakers. The Live drive connections are as follows: *headphone out (1/4 stereo jack with front (and software) volume control *line in 2 (1/4 stereo jack, shared mic in 2) * mic in 2 (1/4 jack with gain control) also there is a jumper to switch between two different types of mic (cant remember what they are just remember one is called "dynamic") *midi in (mini din) *midi out (mini din) *optical SPDIF in and out *coaxial SPDIF in and out *stereo auxiliary in (2x RCA/Coaxial Jack * sb1394 port *infra-red receiver for remote (included with new batt :P) That’s all off the box. I did use it once for recording audio (using the RCA jacks) when I was capturing a show off tv through my vid card worked great! There’s a few cables that come with it to one plugs into the MIDI ports and converts it to a huge jack (don’t know what it is im not a sound buff)

As for it working with SP1 I’m not sure I haven’t dled SP1 since im on dial up. I called creative and asked them they said its recommended for it to run on SP1 in fact they cant help you to much with tech support unless you dl SP1 first supposedly it fixes most of the problems you could be having. I’m running it on xp without a single sp or any update whatsoever to xp and it works fine. The box says operating systems 2000 with SP3 or XP SP1, 98SE and ME.

*Im not really sure what to trade for. Maybe I shouldnt of put that up since im not certain yet..... Ive decided this is to much of a card for me and I dont need everything it comes with. Looking for a new santa cruiz card perhaps. So a sound card and cash to cover the rest would do it.
