The sound cards were removed, the drivers were gone, you could not
select them because they were not there as an option. I looked in the
devices and they were gone, the only sound card in the system was the
Delta-44. I asked the PC to scan for new hardware and it would not
find the other cards, I got them to start working because their
drivers came as executable programs that would install the software
even if the card was not visible.
On several different PC's the Delta-44 software did exactly the same
thing. I was going to install the Delta in several PC's and see on
which it had the lowest noise, but that behavior put a stop to that.
I was planning to buy a second Delta-44 card, but now after that
obscene behavior by their software, it sealed it's own fate, I will
not ever buying another one again unless they fix their software. I
installed their drivers, and audio editing software.

I believe all of you are mistaking one thing for another. This is
trivially fixed if I am right. What happens sometimes when you
install a new card , such as the Delta 44, it becomes the default
sound card when you wanted the soundmax to continue to be the
default sound card.
Start -> Control Panel-> Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices
click on sound and audio device properties and adjust the record and
playback card on the audio tab to be the soundmax. It will again work.
Delta 44 does this every time I have installed one.

I have several ASUS motherboards, and I had no problem until I
installed a Delta-44 card, it took over and disabled all the built
in and a SB 24 live card. After re-installing the software it's working fine.

I do not believe this can possibly be correct and you got a misinformed
by an ASUS support person. I have an ASUS MB, and while they are all
different, they are not that different. I have the P4C800E Deluxe. It
has the soundmax on it.
Good luck.
