Hi listers! I recently upgraded to Windows XP and since then I have a weird sound problem I hope someone can help me with. When there is some stronger system sound or when I play files online (sites such as Myspace or YouTube) the quality of JAWS gets lower; it's as if it was in sample rate of 22 kHz instead of 44 kHz. Then when I close the playing sites or the system sound finishes it gets back to normal. Now I noticed it also happens when I change the Winamp output to something else than the DirectSound output: as soon as I start playing a file JAWS quality gets worse but when I pause or stop it it gets back to normal. I have Windows XP Professional, SB Live 5.1 and JAWS 4.51; I first thought it was a JAWS problem and shortly tried version 7 and experienced the same, then I haven't kept the newer version for now due to the lack of space on my system HD, also JAWS 7 still doesn't have translations for Czech so I've kept this older version for now instead. When I had the very same programs in Windows 98 I never had these problems with JAWS, only now that I upgraded to XP; so I can only suspect it has something to do with the soundcard vs the system since both versions of JAWS I tried should be compatible with XP, right? Any ideas if there is some way to fix it? Thank you very much in advance. In case this is not totally on-topic you can write me privately, preferably at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Martina
