Ouch is right! I wouldn't do that. ;-)
Among other things, NT wants to be the big kid on the block and will grab the
Master Boot Record if you install it after linux.
If I were you, I'd do some research on Google to determine the provenance of
your card. Then once you've narrowed it down to a few likely candidates, run
sndconfig and try out different drivers. You'll know immediately if you're
successful because sndconfig plays a sound file of LInus Torvalds saying, "My
name is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce linux "leeenoooks"."
Cheers.
