I'm only shooting in the dark here, but I think any mainboard would only support one single gameport device, or is it possible to add another soundcard with another gameport and run multiple gameport devices?

Or is it possible to "hardwire" the two devices thru a single port, possibly using a "splitter" adapter?

Mainboard: Asus P5K-Premium, CPU=Intel E6850 @ x8x450fsb 3.6ghz, RAM: 4gb PC8500 Team Dark, Video: NV8800GT, HDD: 2x1Tb Samsung F3 RAID-0 + 1Tb F3, PSU: Antec 550 Basiq, OS: Win7x64, Display: 24" WS LCD

I know people that have used a splitter..

Also it should be possible to add another inexpensive sound card with gameports on it..

Also, there is a Gameport to USB adapter out there.... Wink
