Hi, Kevin!  First, is it a Keynote VoiceCard, or a software
synthesizer?  If it's a KeyNote VoiceCard, you can use it as a synthesizer
both in DOS and Windows.  Don't know about the software synthesizer.  By
the way, the synthesizer (software) is copy-protected, so you may have to
be careful there.  The VoiceCard is a PCMCIA card, so unless you have
another laptop with PC Card slots, you're out of luck. Hope this
helps.--Matthew Chao (N1IBB.)
