Yes, I also changed a sound card in one of my ILM authorized machines and,
based upon what I had been hearing, feared that a problem I was experiencing
was due to FS's detection of a change in hardware. As things turned out, the
problem lay with SoundBlaster adjustments and nothing else. I will talk to
Sharon Spensor and Eric Damery tomorrow to get the straight dope on this, an
important issue to all of us. To say the least, I would have been more than
disappointed, had I discovered my problem, this morning, to have been of
Floridian origin.
