I know most sound cards have a midi/gameport on them. Is there a way to use this? I am sure there is but I am not sure where to start.

Click to expand...

Havent seen a recent sound blaster with a gameport.
Besides I think gameports are completely replaced by USB, I dont think there is still a joystick on the market that connects through the gameport (at least I hope not ;) ).
 
I don't think game controlers use them anymore... but I know they are still sometimes used for midi. Don't know about soundcards carrying them... but my Asus A8N Deluxe mobo has a midi/gameport built onto it. No idea how to access them programatically though... sorry.
