No special "driver" needed for a PCI slot.. but the device
in the slot may require one. The primary motherboard driver will provide info for all features present, including chipset, device slot, USB and such. While the driver version for XP may be nearly identical to that for Win 7 or 8, certain signatures and parsing may cause non-acceptance to the newer OS versions.
There is an old rule.. if the OS inception date is newer than the device, likely there is an appropriate driver in the OS install library. But if the device is newer than the OS inception date, OEM supplied drivers may be mandated.
Any reason that you don't want to use the on-board sound? Should be nearly as good as what the SB Live! card could produce.. but no game port. You can get
USB to MIDI/game port adapters at not much cost. The popularity of a MIDI/game port connection is not as popular today, due to USB enhancements. Yet many sound cards do have them included.. for the digital music device aficionado.
F@H.. to solve mankind's maladies.. in our lifetimes!
