I'm sorry. I've never had a sound card conflict,except when I've clicked on a Web URL where the site started playing music, so I didn't think clearly about your situation. Good luck with this. thie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carl J.

While I can easily set up a speed key to start jaws, and I do, I cannot hear anything if they have sound muted. Hence, I can't hear all the prompts that would help me if I can't immediately hear jaws talk. Maybe FS could build in a speed key for reliably un-muting the sound card? -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Yardbird Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 2:45 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: un-muting jaws sound Hi, How about getting to the same set of controls a little more quickly by just pressing Insert F11 to put up your system tray list, hitting enter on the Volume option, and proceeding from there just as Michelle suggests? Just another possibility. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Salvas,Michel [NCR]" <Michel.Salvas@xxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 11:31 AM Subject: Re: un-muting jaws sound Hi, cjr, If you're talking about System sounds, here is the procedure. 1. From the Start menu, press S for Settings then C for Control Panel. 2. Press S until you get Sounds and Audio Devices and press ENTER. 3. Make sure the Volume page is selected. If not, press CTRL+TAB until you get it. 4. Press TAB until you get Device volume Mute and press SPACEBAR to uncheck it. 5. Press ENTER to close the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties dialog box.

Often I go to use a computer in our office and that person has the sound muted. Is there a way to reliably unmute the system with a jfw speed key or other method?
