+ADw-div class+AD0AIg-content+ACIAPg-Mark, +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-I assume you're running Win2k/XP? +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I recently had to switch to 2K only, as +ADw-br+AD4- GPL refused to start up under 98 after I added a USB2 card. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-The sound in 2K was, originally, awful - heavily distorted and worthless. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I +ADw-br+AD4- found that switching views via the replay screen would sometimes fix it, but +ADw-br+AD4- I wasn't satisfied with that. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-Then I remembered some advice I'd seen +ADw-br+AD4- somewhere about turning the audio acceleration features down, and tried it - +ADw-br+AD4- voila+ACE- +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I found that setting audio acceleration to the second-from-lowest +ADw-br+AD4- notch cured most of the audio quality problems I was having - I still get +ADw-br+AD4- occasional lockups that seem sound-related, but the sound quality is back to +ADw-br+AD4- what I was used to in Win98. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Not sure if this applies to your problem, but I figured I'd throw it out +ADw-br+AD4- there. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Rick +ADw-br+AD4APA-/div+AD4-
