anothersoundcard
Hi,
There are two ways in which you can do it: assuming that you want Windows
Media Player to use another card not used by your screen reader:
The first option is go to your Start Menu; go to Control Panel; move to
Sound and Audio Devices; press enter.
Press Control plus Tab to the Audio page; tab to "Sound Playback audio
device" and arrow to choose the device to be used by Windows for all audio
output. After this, press Okay to apply your changes.
The other way is to change the sound card used by Jaws: of which I think
is the easiest way to do:
Open your Jaws menu by pressing JAWS+J; Arrow to Utilities; In the
Utilities menu, arrow to Sound Cards submenu using your right arrow. Here
you will see that Jaws uses the Windows default card. Arrow to the sound
card you want JAWS to use and press Enter on it. Changes will take place
immediately. This helps so that when Windows is using one sound card, JAWS
will be forced to use the other one unless you remove the one you assigned
to Jaws. In that case, Jaws will revert to the Windows default.
However, just make sure that the sound card you assign to Jaws is not the
one used by Windows anyway. You can get this info by opening the Sound and
Audio Devices as I stated above. Just see which one is being used for
sound playback: and then assign the other one to Jaws.
I hope this helps.
Take care,
Ishe

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Changing Windows Media Player to another
soundcard
Hi gang,
I'm using Windows XP Pro, Windows Media Player 11 and Jaws 11. I have 2
sound cards on my computer and would like to change Windows Media Player
to the second sound card. What would be the steps in doing this? Thanks
for your help.
