Should all be good, except I don't think the Kx drivers are working for X-fi yet, so you may have to use your onboard sound instead. Otherwise, everything should work well.

iPC worked! As Ali C said, I have no sound. But also no Wifi. Everything else seems to work fine though.

Sometimes you have to hunt and peck for some of the drivers. I'd say this was the case for your wifi and your sound even if you went with the onboard.
