I am the proud owner of a new 10.5.7 hackintosh.

Everything is working great with my P5K deluxe board, except for audio. I have found different drivers for it, but am still unsure if it works.

I have purchased an optical SPDIF cable and connected it to my receiver, but cannot get any audio. I have the option under sound output in prefrences for either, Unknown, Headphones, or SPDIF. I have tried every one but cannot get it to work. I do not know if the drivers are working period, or just don't support the spdif. If so what is a good recommened sound card to use with 10.5.7, and are there any with the red/white (left and right) outlets.

Thanks and any help is appreciated.

P.S. Is it safe to donate to this site, I have donated to another site in the past and it was just kind of idk. But I would be proud to have the donor symbol in my name, for all the help this site has offered.
