let me add a little caveat comment, John. Although the sound cards
including the USB versions are quite accessible, the software included with
the more recent versions of this product most assuredly is not Jaws
friendly. I have a relatively new USB card which works beautifully but it
comes with some new software called the "Tool Box" which contains all kinds
of really interesting mixing and editing software. Unfortunately, many of
the controls on these screens will not read at all.
That is most regrettable and I have already made my views known to the
manufacturer, Creative Labs.
Man, that is so frustrating!

Hi Pete,
I have one here which likes all flavors of Windows including Vista. It
likes
Linux too but on to your question.
The only configuration you need to do is under Sounds & Audio in Control
Panel.
There you can set which one of the devices is your primary soundcard after
you install it and the drivers it needs.
Putting in the card involves the same steps as you would go through for
any
PCI card.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Is Sound Blaster Audigy Jaws Friendly?
Hello all.
I recently purchased a computer with a Realtek soundcard built in to the
motherboard. I am dissatisfied with the sound quality and am thinking of
buying Sound blaster.
My questions are these.
1. Is this a Jaws Friendly device? In other words Will I easily be able
to
configure it using Jaws and Windows XP?
2. What is involved in physically installing the card in to my machine?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Pete
