Hi John; I ran into this problem with my desktop computers as well but, the problem wasn't the sound card. the problem was running a PS2 keyboard, plugged into a USB port via a, PS2 to USB adaptor / converter. When using the keyboard without the, PS2 to USB adaptor, & plugged straight into a PS2 port, I didn't have any problems. Are you by any chance using a PS2 keyboard through a USB port? Take care. Mike

It's one of the Creative Labs Sound Blasters and I have found something that I just can't correct. My laptop computer has a good sound card in it but the speaker is so small, that it's a joke. I have plugged the unit into independent speakers and I have run it, using this sound card with USB. I'm a pretty fast typist and I have found that when I get free wheeling along, the sound card gets lost and misses parts of the words I'm typing. I have jaws set on Word recognition rather than single character. I tried going into the Jaws system to make sure that the card was properly syncronized but nothing seems to help. The same problem does not occur when I use the on board sound card in the laptop. Just as an experiment, I loaded the drivers into my desktop and connected the USB card. I got the same annoying results and I just can't figure out why. Any ideas would be most welcoem.
