There's a good idea that I should have thought of on my own. I will try that before anything else, as I'm guessing it's the easiest. I did look at the headphone jack to see if there was a plug in it (I keep just a headphone plug with no wires with my PowerBook, so I can use it without sound when needed) but that's as far as i went.
