Howdy,
I am using a Hercules sound board and do not have the snap, crackle
and pop mentioned with the Sound Blaster. I am on JAWS 5.0 and XP. The
motherboard is an Arbitron and the processor is AMD XP. I am not sure
the Hercules is quite as good as the Sound Blaster Live but am not sure.
CYS...

greetings
Problem:
With Windows XP and a Sound Blaster Live card, Eloquence causes a
crackling sound at the ends of words and sentences. This has been
reproduced on several computers running various combinations of
hardware
and software.
This affects JAWS 4.x and higher as well as MAGic 8.x
Solution:
There are two options for resolving this issue:
Option A:
Anti-Crackling Patch for Creative Labs SoundBlaster Live! and
Audigy-series drivers can be obtained at the following web site
courtesy
of third party developer George Breese:
http://www.georgebreese.com/net/software/#CREATIVE
It is advised that you carefully review the accompanying README
file
http://www.georgebreese.com/net/software/readmes/creative_patch_v010_rea
dme.
htm
prior to downloading and installing the patch. This driver set has
been
tested publicly with JAWS and reports are positive. It has not
been tested
by Freedom Scientific.
Option B:
A driver set is available by Gateway Computers which has been
tested with
both JAWS and MAGic and does eliminate the static or crackling
problem.
These drivers are available and can be downloaded from Gateway at
the
following URL.
http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/search.asp?fn=7512638.exe
Follow the download link and instructions provided. If the URL is
inoperative, you can go to the Gateway support site and search for
file
name 7512638.exe. This driver set was tested both publicly and
in-house
and eliminated the problem for both JAWS and MAGic. Note that this
will
replace your digital sound capabilities with analog audio only.
Hope this offers you some help.
