Shaun,
Are you quite sure this is a sound card issue? I really want to make
absolutely sure before I fork out some cash for a new card. I'm already in
debt (I hate these stupid credit cards hehe), so I really want to avoid
purchasing something I won't be needing. secondly, are you running xp or
vista? If you are running vista, can you use stereo mix and line in and all
that stuff with no problems? and lastly, which card do you recommend for
this Toshiba laptop? Should I perhaps just buy an external card? I have
absolutely no clue how to install a soundcard on a laptop, which would most
likely mean giving up even more cash to have someone install it if it isn't
external

I would recomend getting another card.
the hd card sounds rather cool when used, however I have had issues where
stuff didn't run right, ie teraformas, and sod and a couple other things.
Most things do run ok.
then there is the fact that there are 2 seperate input/output devices.
these are not linked and you get no mic sharing with playback and
recording.
The card also crackles loads and extra drivers seem to mangle this system
and make it even worse.

Hey all,
This soundcard is a realtek high definition audio. I have no clue what
realtek considers high definition audio but there you go lol. I've also
had many issues with it, such as not being able to use line-in cause that
option is non-existent, and not being able to unmute my microphone when
stereo mix is on. I have yet to find a solution for this issue and I've
been looking in hundreds of forums. This greatly annoys me since I was
planning on recording mk and sfiv reviews amung other things. I'd
appreciate if anyone could answer the following questions: first, is there
a fix for this issue I'm having? is it my soundcard acting up, or is it
Vista itself? I've heard many rumors that vista doesn't support line-in
and that it also lacks the ability to record both microphone output and
stereo mix, so I'd like confirmation from people using other cards with
vista. and second, do you guys know if this card supports surround sound?
Thomas, I know you said the headphones have 3 jacks you can
plug into the card. only problem here is I only have a headphone jack, and
another jack to the left which I presume is for the microphone. I'm using
an internal mic so not sure about this, and the only time I tried plugging
a microphone in there, the person I was talking to heard this loud
annoying sound. This is a toshiba laptop btw. If Vista's the culprit, then
I'll most likely uninstall it since all these audio problems are really
getting on my nerves, not to mention the ftp issue I've been having which
I mentioned on here months ago. still haven't managed to fix that either
*grin*. so any help at all you guys can provide would be much appreciated
as this computer's driving me insane.
