Ok...now things are beginning to click a bit. are running Alsa sound server? if it is running, turn it off via Mandrake Control Center. what you're experiencing sounds all too familiar, but it's been a little while since I personally have had to deal with it. I _do_ know that turning off the Alsa server is part of the problem/solution. also, what kind of card do you have? -- daRmaTTeR R L U: #186492 When ever people annoy me I remember, "Vengence is mine saith the Lord."
