Do you suppose even the Dell onsite technician does not follow what
Dell tech insisted?

SB Audigy 2 ZS GEN4 No sound through microphone (3/11/05)
http://delltalk.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=dim_audio&message.id=56256

   Now a tech is sheduled to come to the house and replace the sound
   card. Just what I need a 7 day old system for which I paid extra
   for a high end sound card and now I'll have a refurbished one.

    I'm still having the same issue.  The Dell tech support (based in
    India I guess) does not reply anymore on email (even though I
    politely remind them). I got a reply to call the usual support
    phone number and want me to start all over again, as part of the
    wearing out strategy.
