THE SOUND STILL ISN'T WORKING! I bought a Phillips sound card (I know, a cheapo) but, after I installed it, I was expecting to have my ears filled with the sweet sound of SUCCESS (being able to hear anything.) BUT NOTHING! \ To recap, I bought a system that has AC97 sound onboard, it wasn't working, even after MANY attemps to configure it - altering the BIOS - using different speakers etc. Even though in the "System Manager" it appears and it looks like it's playing ("Sound Recorder" shows that a sound is being played) You hear zilch. I'm pretty frustrated because I had waited so long for the system initially (over two months, there were different complications) and it took awhile to get different programs/hardware/a dual boot/ etc. figured out and I didn't have a whole lot of ambition left. So, I just thought I'd install a sound card and be done with it. Well, the sound card "appears" and it looks like it's playing just like AC97 did but, again nothing. I've tried disabling "onboard sound" - "onboard modem" - "onboard LAN" but it doesn't seem to matter. I hope to figure out a solution because I REALLY don't want to send it off. After all the configuring/systems/programs/hardware and being around Cmas I probably wouldn't see it again before the new year. And then I'd have to start from scratch?! O.K., I could probably save alot but I'd still have to to back to using the phone for awhile and also, brave the hoards at the mall. It would't be pretty. So, PLEEAASSE, put your mind's to work and give me an early present. I'd love it and after all it is the season and it'll warm your heart and because "you better watch out" cause you never know who's "watching!" THANKS!
