I agree with the first answer if its working fine why change it the lan is working and changing the driver will not improve anything
as to the sound onboard sound is very poor quality keep using the sound blaster
I have used soundblaster for years there good quality

1) If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
2) You'll get much better performance from the Soundblaster. Onboard audio is usually notoriously poor quality.
Make sure you uninstall the Soundblaster and physically remove it from your system before you try to install the SiS driver.

yes in both cases you can go ahead and install. please make sure that you backup the previous drivers.
