I plan to use OpenAL in my programms. But until now I found no hardware implementation. Exists such an implementation??? If, where can I get it. If not, when will it give one??? THX

For what environment? OpenAL in Windows goes through DirectSound, so you get any acceleration that DirectSound gets. In other environments OpenAL can use a number of other backends, including: SDL, ESD, ALSA, Arts, and even a emu10k1 (the chip in Sound Blasters) backend. Find which backend is being used, then ask your question about that backend.

Im using a Sound Blaster Audigy on a Windows 98 system. But alGetString(AL_RENDERER) always returns Software.
