Hi Jerry, thanks for the reply,

NO I didn't read the manual as my dad gave me the PC about 2 years ago and
he'd had it about 2 years then. I have had to learn from scartch really but
I`m learning a lot, slowly but surely.

However, I`m not sure how to find out what sound card is in my system ? I
have no idea ? There were no CD's with this PC apart from XP Home Ed 1 inc
service pack 1, but I`ve just re-installed a new XP home ed @ inc Service
Pack 2. I still (as you can tell) have a hell of a lot to learn !!!!

Any advice is always appreciated,

Caz xx
