Hi Don, it's alt-S; however, if the device isn't working, or isn't enabled, then the "set as default" command button will be disabled. one thing I do, to keep this from happening to me, is to disable all other devices other than the one I'm using; that way, as I said above, you aren't given the opportunity to set the wrong device as the default. You need to have the option "show disabled devices" enabled though, so you can then re-enable these when you need to. FYI, I also wanted to mention you can set a device as the default, and enable or disable it, by right clicking it and using the context menu which comes up. this menu also has choices for showing you disabled devices. hth, Chip

In noodling around and trying to make Windows Media Center use my main sound card which feeds my stereo I managed choose the wrong device and now have a very quiet pc. I am pretty sure I can get to the list of sound cards and I know that the one I want is three of three but I can't seem to find the make default button. If the button does not have an underlined letter for hot keying, perhaps you could tell me how many tabs. Or I can wait till that cute girl gets home from work and get some sighted assistance, but that would leave me with lots of non productive time! Thanks!
