I've been searching the web for a while now trying to find some solution to disable the onboard sound and I'm getting nothing.
Any suggestions on this or am I stuck using the **** onboard sound card?

I'm not sure I understand the question. I checked the manual and the option to disable onboard audio is well documented. It's in BIOS under Advanced, Onboard Devices Configuration. Do you mean that it's hidden or greyed out in your board?

if you have a soundcard, you can always select in in the audio devices panel, you don't have to use it. i leave mine enabled and i still use an M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 for output.

When I go to disable onboard sound the motherboard freezes up on NVRAM check, that is the problem with disabling onboard sound. I'm getting a lot of stuttering on playing audio on occasion. I figure its the onboard sound card causing issues.

It's a problem specific to the 405 BIOS. You can leave it enabled in the BIOS and disable it via Windows Device Manager.
