I have to ask why you are needing to use NT?

But as to your USB sound card, as long as you can get the hardware 
vendor to create the drivers for NT, you would be OK. Since the driver 
model for NT is different from the operating systems that the iMic 
currently says it supports, getting the device to operate under NT is 
likely not going to be possible without vendor support for the EOL NT 
operating system.

With devices like sound cards and USB interfaces, it's all about the 
operating system (usually specific) drivers.
