Does Audigy2 have DOS drivers for use with older games ?

This is a discussion about Does Audigy2 have DOS drivers for use with older games ? in the Legacy OS category; Or could the old Live! DOS driver work ? Could someone please take a look into this one ? I'm confronted with buying this Soundcard but have lots of old DOS games that need a native DOS environment (no WinXP/2K/Me/98/95 DOS box or compatibility mode.

I'd really doubt it. It's pretty tough to find anything that works in just DOS anymore.

Have 2 soundcards, one for DOS games with DOS drivers and the Audigy 2 if worst comes to worst.
 
Other options could include using DOSbox, VirtualPC or the beta of VMWare 4 which I think has VESA support now.

OP
I'm sorry. Don't need no ISA cards anymore unless you can deliver some kind of PCI => ISA bridge....
 
Thanks,
