Damn soundcard! - Wish I hadn't bought it... I recently purchased a SoundBlaster PCI64v sound card which is (imho) crap! It works (ish) under Windows, although I continually have to readjust the volume controls... It works under Dos for some games - although the sound quality if you are running in a Dos box is terrible... I havn't tried it under Linux yet - need to get round to downloading RedHat 6... It works under Allegro only if I am running in a Dos box with inevitable problems - poor quality, and timer resolution... So, what do I do? A. Purchase an original (and genuine) SoundBlaster Pro 2. B. Complain bitterly to Creative Labs about not giving Shawn the tech ref. C. Give up computers altogether and become a lawyer <g> D. Ask you lot, if anyone has solved the problem. If anyone has any ideas, or extensions to this list, it would be most appreciated. Thanks -- Alan McFarlane amcfarlane AT bigfoot DOT com
