i don't recommend creative SB pci cards for use in DOS. it's great in windows 
and linux, but it is a pain to setup in dos. if you already have it, then go 
for it. here are two websites to help you setup your SBPCI:

if you have to buy an old soundcard, buy ESS audiodrives (solo, maestro, 
allegro) series. you only need two lines to load the driver: one each for 
config.sys and autoexec.bat. you can put both in a batchfile if you use 
devload.com to load the .sys driver.

some motherboards come with onboard VIA ac97 audio with SBpro emulation, get 
that.
