Well,th delta cards work under 7 but not as well as they did under xp you 
can't push the latency as low.

Mileage differs with different motherboards, but this is a widely known 
fact.

Also the drivers aren't as accessible, takes more mousing around, I worked 
with these cards a lot when w7 first came out, I have 2 delta 10 10 the rack 
mounted ones, and 2 44s, these were my favorite cards for 12 years and took 
me from w98 all the way through xp which I still use a lot, and then I 
bought my mackie onyx 1640i.

I'm glad your 2496 is working ok for you, it's something to do with the 
clock, and that chipset, apparently the 24-192 which has a different chipset 
doesn't have the problem.

Too bad though hbecause being a pci based card it actually can go lower in 
latency than my newer mackie at a given setting, and though I love the onyx 
firewire board, in raw performance the older hardware actually does better 
under certain conditions.

This is under xp though.

But by it's nature a card based interface like the deltas get's higher 
priority on the pc than any external bus like usb or firewire.

So for pro sound cards usb is at bottom in desireability, then firewire and 
pci and then pci express as best but we don't have so many pci express cards 
which is a shame being the fastest lane in a modern pc.
