His wife was She Who Must Be Obeyed! <BR/><BR/>It's just so lovely when husbands in a long term marriage, kind of morph into that way of thinking. Makes life so much more smoother and all. For all. -evil grin-<BR/><BR/>But today happens to be my husband's Birthday and he doesn't really need anything so... I am giving him ... -drum roll please- a whole day of not nagging or being bitchy or pushing on him! Does that not sound like Heaven, to any married man?!?

I have a sound card where all the connectors are the same color (gold) and just have miniscule pictures to determine which are which - Pain in the arse.<BR/><BR/>If it is software related it can be a big pain in the behind as well. I'd go into your device manager (generally if you right click on 'My Computer' there is a devices tab which will give you access to the device manager).<BR/><BR/>Once in there, find the sound card, select it and remove it. Then restart your computer. It should automatically install the necessary drivers from scratch. Worst case scenario you might need either your driver CD or a quick trip to the manufacturer's website to download a new driver.<BR/><BR/>Let me know if any of this helps. :)TomboCheckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11076931481931258301noreply@blogger.com
