Thanks, John.. We did that on the Modem and it worked fine. We happened
to have the drivers on a CD. Will have her run Aida32 and see if we can
find drivers for the sound card just in case before we start working on the
sound card. I was hoping that procedure would also work for the sound card
on Windows 98.. I forgot about the SFC on Windows 98 too. Thanks for your
input.. Cy

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
