Hi, ok if she is using xp then have her get the latest driver from the creative web sight and install it. See if that helps there are some issues with the driver that ships with xp. I my self still use these drivers but I am using the card for music not for speech and so the issues do not really effect me. One of the issues is a real bad crackle when ever you switch from a wave file or based file to software speech. It also does this when muting speech and tends to stutter.
