Thank you Don and Brian. I believe it is all figured out now. When I receive my new system, I'll give it a try. Thank you Mark F. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Don Moore Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 7:43 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: 2 sound cards Hi Mark, You must edit the jfw.ini file to tell JAWS to use the different sound card. For example, I use my SoundBlaster Odigy sound card for most sounds on my computer, but I tell JAWS to use the onboard sound card, which is a RealTech card, by inserting the following line into the jfw.ini file of the JAWS version I am using: Synth1Port=Realtek HD Audio rear output This line must be inserted in the new jfw.ini file each time I upgrade to a new version of JAWS; otherwise, JAWS will run off the SoundBlaster card just like everything else on my PC. The line must be inserted just above the first line that starts with Synth2. The path for the jfw.ini file for JAWS 9.0 is: C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific\Jaws\9.0\jfw.ini Hope this helps, Don ----- Original Message ----- From: MarkF <mailto:mfurness@xxxxxxxxx> To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 6:09 PM Subject: 2 sound cards What is the trick to have Jaws use one out of 2 ssound cards?
