    Steve:

I thought I did this, but maybe not.

How do you know what the computer's on board sound card is?

I realize that  you may not be able to answer this, since you don't have my 
computer to work with, but I guess I need to know that for sure before doing 
anything.

Any tips, hints, or tricks you can give me would be helpful.

This is very similar to the problem I had earlier when trying to get the 
TS590 ARCP590 software to work with the USB virtual comport, which I 
ultimately gave up on in favor of a second USB to serial converter.

For Whatever reason, it just seems much harder to get Windows 7 to 
co-operate here with interchanging sound cards.

Maybe I need to find some computer geek at the University to come over here 
and figure this thing out.  (grin)
