The below is more work then just editing the ini file. Note you will also find that some programs will not allow you to change witch card it uses for recording and playback. Windows messenger for example always uses the default card. Windows media also uses the default card. Skype last time I checked was the same way. So while this works there are disadvantages to this approach. Now if you are using a sapi five based device then setting where speech goes is the only approach. Now here is a question of my own. Does anyone know how to force a sapi 4 based device to go to the soundcard you want it to like sapi 5 does? The sapi 4 control panel used to do this but the sapi 5 control panel does not do this for both. It seems it only does it for five based devices. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of AB7HW Dick Lee Chrisman Sent: Wednesday, August 03, 2005 7:44 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Two sound card success, Method Ricque told me the method below and it worked. Several people also suggested this method. -____------_____------ This should work for an external soundcard, or internal soundcard. After you have installed the card, drivers, and any software, 1. go to the control panel, and select, sounds and audio devices. 2. when this dialogue opens, you will be in the volume tab, go to the audio tab. 3. here you will notice a default playback device combo box, one of your soundcards will be spoken. 4. arrow up or down, and you will hear the name of your other soundcard. Which ever one you have highlighted in the combo box will be your default playback device. 5. which ever card you have set as the default device, will be used by Jaws. 6. tab until you hear the default recording device combo box. Here you can select which card sound will be recorded thru. 7. To have your audio files, ie music files, use a different soundcard, simply go to your preferred player and tell it to use the card of your choice. I have checked this with several programs, Dick----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Speck" <dspeck@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, August 03, 2005 5:09 AM Subject: Re: Two sound card success! > We would like to know now, what was the suggestion that finally work > for you? > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "AB7HW Dick Lee Chrisman" <ab7hw@xxxxxxx> > To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 10:44 PM > Subject: Two sound card success! > > >> Two sound card success! >> >> Thanks to all of you that offered advice on installing two sound >> cards!
