Subject: [ddots-l] Hardware / Soundcard problem pls. help!

Hello all together,

I have an very technical problem here. I think that may be noone can help me here but because I think that everyone who can not order an accessible dancingdots workstation for what ever reson may run into that same problem. That's why I post this and hopefuly to get an solution.

The wole problem is about adding an sekend soundcard to the system I mean an highend soundcard for Music produktion for Sonar.

Please also see an description of Hardware used in my system below.

I have 2 Soundcards here that I need to use. The lo end card is an "Realtek AC.97 Audio"onboard soundcard. The 2th is an Emu 18 20 M. Both cards have been installed by my dealer but onestly I do not think if he has checked the highend card if it works proberly. So I got the system; installed Jaws and in the controlpanel there is only showing the Realtek soundcard and not the Emu 18 20 M.

What I found out after talking with a lot support people is that Windows is not supporting multiply Soundcards. But I know that there must be a way because the Dancingdots systems have 2. I need this 2 cards because one for Jaws talking output and the other for the music thinks. So the first question is how that works that I can have this 2 cards working?

Do I need an other highend soundcard as the Emu?

By talking to a few support people here in Germany I also found out that the Onboard soundcard can not run with an 2th sound card. I do not know if this is true but it has given me an other idear here: What if I disable the Onboard sound in the Bios and after that install the Emu card again and for the Jaws talking I connect an USB-head set that I have here. That may be the solution I think. What do you all think and know about such solutions and problems? I think everyone runs into that same problem because we all need an 2th sound card for the Jaws talking.

I need your help / comments / suggestions and if an technical person reads this then an technical atvice please:-)
