Denny thanks, one problem/question..I did what you said, however when I got to config.sys it said
file created by the System Config Utility as a place holder for Cofig.sys. Actual Config.sys has been saved under the name Config.tsh. Is it ok to go into note pad then open config.tsh and make the changes there? Also is all this really necessary, soound card seems fine. Like, if it ain't broke don't fix it??
That is a new one on me. Given that fact I think I'd go with the "if it ain't broke" line of reasoning. I did find a reference to that filename which says "Dell computers use Config.tsh" which is curious because mine doesn't.
On the other hand, someday if you're feeling adventurous, you might try the change in Config.tsh just to see what happens. (At worst, since you know what you did, you can always go into the file and delete the additions.)

Didn't know that. As a card-carrying DOS dinosaur I always used either sysedit or a word processor for autoexec.bat and config.sys. Thanks for the info.
