Sound recorder poor quality by Greg Johnson
I recently installed a new video card, ATI All in Wonder Radeon Pro 9000 with TV Tuner. While the case was open, I replaced my Firewire card with a combo USB 2..0/Firewire card. Now when I record wav files, the sound is skipping, scratchy, and garbled. I noticed that SB and the combo card...

Low volume & no sound... :NOT REALLY A SOULTION by Lenny
Well, if the right soundcard was not selected, then there would be no sound at all, right? (or wrong?) You're probably right, but it never hurts to eliminate all possible causes, and it's quickly accomplished anyway. :) But as it seems your problem is solved one can only congratulate you....

SBLive! A hog under XP? by Albert Finchly
Howdy. I don't know about other versions of Windows, but under XP the SBLive! (latest drivers) seem to be hogging "something". If I play CS (or any other FPS game) with the Soundblaster (as opposed to the onboard sound) enabled, then I get severe FPS drops. If I disable the SBLive! and enable...
