use 2 soundcards....

I have one onboard and one as a card and they are both working...

no conflicts or problems whatsoever.

can I do anything with this combination, perhaps taking advantage of
this?

I have a similar setup where I have various devices plugged into 'Line-In"
like old audio cassette players and recorders and 'Phonograph'
players(Turntables) to different sound cards on one System. I have an Icon
on the desktop that allows me to switch cards and sound systems. One
computer can drive as many different combinations of sound systems both
external and internal from as many sound cars as there are PCI slots. The
easier way is with an external mixer that does the switching instead of
switching between sound cards which it the way I use the newer systems.
