It is generally believed that Windows is so much easier than Linux.
THAT IS NOT TRUE AT ALL and you have just given one example.......

You have to find the Windows drive routine for the Delta44, then
you have to install it properly using the Windows tools. 
You also have to install the AC97 properly under Windows;-)

"Can not query hardware under windows" is a statement from 
me (the programmer.) I can not. I can just get the text string that
describes the card but I do not know how to find out what
capabilities it might have. The user has to know............
