Hi,
I recommend putting that line in the .ini file. I also recommend downloading
NVDA, since that just about always pulls through and if jaws isn't coming
through the right soundcard, NVDA most certainly will.

Subject: Hope you can help with the iMic
Hi Donna, Gary, Alex, et al:
Y'all have been very kind and patient with me. Thanks ever so much! I
don't have individual email addresses so I can't go off-line. Sorry to
those who are disinterested. Here's the situation now that I have the
iMic:
I have a Dell laptop, Windows XP, with a SigmaTel Audio soundcard. I am
usually hooked up to a port replicator which also has its own sound card
called C-Media Headphone Set. I have Jaws 9.0 as the screen reader and
Goldwave as the sound recording program.
To start with, I assume that I should disconnect from the port replicator
and use my laptop with the SigmaTel Audio default card. So before
shutting
down, I should go into Control Panel, Sounds, Audio tab, and check the box
at the bottom that says use only default devices. I then do a shut down.
I attach the line outs from my tape deck into the iMic line in adaptor
plug
and plug that into the line in plug on the iMic. I flip the switch to
line
in on the side of the device. I then unplug the USB port replicator. I
plug in the iMic USB plug and restart the laptop computer.
Will I hear Jaws when it comes on? Do I plug in a set of headphones into
the output jack on the iMic? If I don't get any sound, I will have to
abort. The one thing that I will need to check is that my sound settings
in
control panel and Goldwave are on the iMic for the recording device and
that
the playback settings are on either the iMic for the headphones plugged
into
the iMic or without headphones on the SigmaTel card. But I can't do this
without Jaws.
In the old days when my old device was sometimes working, along with doing
the checkbox in the control panel sounds audio settings, I would bring up
the Jaws 9.0 ini file and insert the following at the last line before the
synth2 line:
Synth1Port=SigmaTel Audio
I don't know if I should do this or not. Some have advised that I do this
and some say it is not needed.
I hope that you can help. It's been a struggle to get back to eliminating
my vast tape and vinyl collection. This is all I am focused on besides my
job. It has become a quest of sorts. I wish I had a sighted person along
side that can help, but it ain't happening without much pleading. Besides
this isn't rocket science, or is it? Smiles!
Let me know what you think! You can contact me via any of the contact
points below.
Cheers,
Peter
