soundcard help

[FireBrick]

Looked in Newsgroups for a sound card group and found nothing.
Hope someone here can help.

I have two soundcards.
The onboard NVIDIA motherboard sound system.
and
A Santa Cruz 5 card.

I wish to use the Santa Cruz card for a amateur radio function
and
Use the motherboard NVIDIA sound card for music and windows sound events.

I can make each card work for everything
But can't figure out how to separate them.

Please and thank you.

Windows was not designed to use two sound cards.Best option is to make
a profile for each use and change to the profile you want.

Not really.Just make two user profiles which you can boot to or in XP
you can use,"Fast Switching"

Well I wanted to use BOTH at the same time.
The one application uses the sound card to receive and send radio teletype.
I wanted to use the other soundcard to 'beep' when a message containing
keywords
came in or when a Windows event took place.

But that's for the suggestions anyway.

You may be able to get them both working but it's really fiddlely and
basically you are a,"Frontiersman" when you try this.It's you versus
Windows<grin>
