C-media makes a nice card and it's only around $13. Get a small speaker
for
it and pipe JAWS to free up your internal. The fact is that's pretty much
what I do on all of my systems.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Adding a second sound card
Hi All,
I'm using Jaws 13 and Vista on a laptop. Right now I have only the
internal
sound card. I want to add an external sound card. I went to Amazon,
thinking
this would just be a simple purchase, but of course, there are tons of
choices, and I have no clue what I need. I was initially looking for a USB
external card. Then I also saw there are cards that connect to speakers,
and
then several items called "adaptors" showed up in the results list, too.
Actually, there were only a couple options for USB sound cards amidst the
long list, and customer ratings weren't all that good. I don't need
anything
with lots of bells and whistles, and I don't care where I order from. I
just
went to Amazon because I thought I could make a quick purchase and be
done.
I simply want to be able to have Jaws coming from a sound card separate
from
music or sporting events so I can control the volumes separately. Any
pointers on how to make a selection would be a big help.
Thank you,
Shari
