codec? My current F 9 install apparently must have issues with the<br>
driver(s). The sounds this thing projects are like the sound effects<br>
from a really bad scifi flick from the 50's. What is supposed to be a<br>
click is a ring playing through a fuzzbox on an old stratocaster, with a<br>
little wow to it. I see lots of posts about related problems with these<br>
chips, but no solutions. If there ain't no fix, does anyone have any<br>
suggestions for a sound card? Most of the HCLs that I've dug through<br>
have recent posts of 2006, and I can't seem to find any of those in<br>
todays market.<br>
