Hi Steve, thanks for geting back. The other thing about the PC is that it does not have a sound blaster soundcard, so will that give me any problems. There is a soundcard but I can't remember what it is. I'm thinking of starting up with the freedombox on my girlfriends machine, as my machine is running win98 with a copy of jfw 3.5. It just makes sense to keep things apart.
