Try Redmond, WA! The Microsoft Bulletin Board has the driver that you are looking for. If you don't know the number to their bulletin board call Microsoft and get the Technical support staff to tell you. Microsoft has a 1-800-number that has all of their phone numbers listed. If you don't have that call 1-800-555-1212 and get the number from information. By the way, that driver will stop all other processes dead in their tracks from the moment it starts emitting sound until is is done. So if you are running a communications program or some other timing related program it will probably get trashed if you are using that sound driver. A minor detail otherwise. When you get it please post it on internet for the benifit of the rest of us. Thank you.
