Hi Virii, Does that mean I can use multiple cards somehow? In theory, yes, in practice, it will depend on how well you can edit the MPXPLAY etc config. Of course at most one of the cards can use SB16/similar mode, but as you say: I figured it out. It figures the only card I know worked in

Well in Linux, I'm already using 2 sound outputs. The card, and the onboard audio AC97. In Linux I just switch to the AC97 when I want to use the headphones. What about DOS though? Can it handle having two sound cards, plus onboard audio? I don't think it would know the difference!! Does
