Can you have two sound cards running at the same time?
I have a XFI 5.1 sound blaster as my external sound card, and real tech as
the one that is inside the computer.
What I want to do is have the real tech for my Jaws, and the sound blaster
for my music and games.
I have jaws 10, windows XP
Thanks for any help.

You have to set your default sound card for your computer sounds and then
if
you are using jaws 10 or 11, do the following.
press insert j for the jaws menu.
press u for utilities.
Press o for sound cards.
Now arrow down to the sound card that you want jaws to use and press enter
on it.
Bingo, You now have it set to use it's own sound card.

It seems to work fine for me as well although my turtle beach crackles
every
once in a while but to be fair it did that some times when it was the only
sound card.

That is kind of the thought process I was thinking, but wanted to get a
second opinion on my thoughts because they aren't always right.

The answer there is, you got all the stuff that works the sound card
to one source. yes, that lets jaws work better. your box will run
much nicer to, because the only thing using ram now is jaws. Built in
stuff eats at ram, because they give it none of its own. your
external card had memorey so works just fine to make sound good.

Hello all. I'm running Vista on an Acer laptop and jaws 11. Today, I
installed a SB live external. I directed all computer sounds to the sb
live
and the jaws speech and sounds to the real tech that is built into the
laptop. Nothing spectacular there, however, I have noticed that since
doing
this some of the lag in the computer, and a lot of jaws sluggishness has
gone away. I'm wondering if this is a normal result of having a dedicated
sound card for jaws, or if it's more something to do with the
configuration
of my computer. What ever the end result is, it's awesome.
