Creative Labs warns that it's sblive series of cards aren't compatible
with SMP systems. Though i've had the S2460 motherboard and the only
trouble i have had was that EAX didn't work properly. A friend of mine
has an sblive with a dual celeron and he also has had this problem of
deadlocks with the SBLive. The audigy however is fully compatible.

Also, make sure you have an adequate power supply.
