SoundMax motherboard sound - usable?

I keep having Vegas & Acid only lockups with my EMU 1820m Vegas 6 combo and latest drivers/versions are worse than it use to be.

I yanked the EMU and Vegas seems happier but the SoundMax on my ASUS mobo seems to be a little weird. Center volume is low and can't figure out if it's got some driver alternations to the the analog outs...

Anyone using it for surround mixing successfully?

2 of these types of q's lately?

I reccomend getting a professional audio card based on I/O needs you have.

That's probably good advice but after plunking down $500 on emu setup (which I'm moving to another machine for DAW work), I'm just wanting something simple for surround mixing.
