Hi Nicol, Well, it all depends on the software that came with your sound card. However, I've got a Soundmax AC-97 onboard sound card in the desktop I'm using at the moment. Under Windows XP I would do something like press control+escape to open the Start Menu, go to the Windows Control Pannel, and then find the Soundmax icon. If you have a Realtech or something else the icon should be named appropriately for your sound card or manufacturer. Anyway, once I click on the Soundmax icon in the Windows Control Pannel I have a dialog that pops up with settings for that sound card. First is a listbox with some presets such as headphones, stereo, 5.1 surround sound, etc. Since I mostly use stereo headphones I select stereo headphones from the presets. The next listbox is a list of DSP effects such as Cave, Forest, Hallway, Underwater, etc. Basically, the DSP effects just adds echo or changes the way things sound on your sound card. I generally leave it set to None. Click on Ok and you should be good to go. However, as I said these directions largely depend on your sound card and sound card software. This is just a quick example of the software that came with my desktop computer's sound card before I eraced XP and installed Ubuntu Linux on it. I'd also recommend upgrading to service pack 3. Service pack 2 is quite old, and there are a number of bug fixes, security updates, etc in service pack 3 I'd highly recommend having.
