Hello Tink,
I don't know if you have tried this, but I also have an Audigy card and have
found that editing the JFW.ini file works, but I would not advise this
unless you are really sure of what you are doing, not saying that you
aren't, but I would not be correct unless I gave a warning. You need to go
into Jaws via your C drive and find the ini file. when you enter on this it
will open in notepad. cursor down the file until you hear synth1 drive =
elock, above this is where you need to edit. Just above this line you need
to put
Synth1Port=
followed by a space and then the exact name of the sound card you want jaws
to go to. Such as c:/name of card. Then save the changes and exit jaws
with insert F4, reload jaws and you should have the voice where you want it.
Just a warning, make sure there are no blank lines between the Synth1 port =
and the synth1 driver = or it may not work.
HTH
Audrey
