Hi listers I seem to remember that a useful application was discussed on this list which I now need to use on my computer. The application was a small program that on start-up changed your audio settings back to their original saved settings. I now need this as my cleaning lady keeps pressing the top of my new SoundBlaster live external soundcard and muting the volume. So if I could just do a quick restart the audio would always be re-initialised with the volume not muted. Steve Green
