Hi Pcuser1234,
There is one x1 slot and one x16, as well as two regular PCI slots. Why don't you open the case to see what's available?

Thank you very much osprey4, I was away, and I wanted to know how many slots it had. USB Sound cards consume less and I think they are cheaper.

If you are using windows 7 you can use Vista Drivers to get the soundmax working.
Try the 32 bit driver
in either case the driver MUST BE RUN as Administrator.
The driver at Dell Warns that Windows can not verify that the driver signature.
