Re: JAWS WITH AN EXTERNAL SOUND CARD #advisory

How can you lose your sound drivers, just by changing the default sound card? I don’t understand that one.
I have never had that happen in Windows 10 and change sound cards a lot.
All the best

Yes, you can. Be advised, however, that while setting another sound card as my default, I have lost my sound drivers, as well as the registry entries associated with my built-in sound card several times, and have needed sighted help to restore both the registry entries and the drivers. So:
1. Back up the registry before changing the default sound card. 2. Keep copies of your sound drivers.

I am about to install JAWS on an Aser laptop with Windows 10 and I want to be able to run a media program like Winamp and not have JAWS speak through the same speakers. Can I add an external USB sound card that I can plug speakers into for the music media and have JAWS speak through headphones plugged into the laptop's built in jack? I currently have a Windows 7 desktop with a Sound Blaster card that I play music through while JAWS speaks through the mother board sound jack.
