Fred,

What exactly is the problem?
Your computer becomes slow?

Maybe disable the Wavemax audio driver.
Open the startmenu, type:
services.msc
Tab when this program opens and you are in a list.
Find the Wavemax audio driver. I don' have the exact name, something
with Wavemax I thought.
Right click on it and choose properties.
Set startup type: disable.

Your sound will still work without this driver.

Kind regards, Marten

Bill, you are right in what I said. The computer works fine but just very

It shows up as SoundBlaster Play in device manager. Nothing fancy. It was
selected by a local tech and has given me no problems since. The RealTech
went squirlly everytime there was a Dell update and sometimes disappeared
completely, leaveing me to try to hear Jaws from the internal speaker.

The Dell Pro support is worth the cost. I had the same North American tech
every time and she took all the time needed to finally locate the problem.

Bill, you are right in what I said. The computer works fine but just very
basey audio and practically no treble. The problem is not my speakers as I
use two computers with one set of speakers. I thought of calling the
microsoft help line but the problem seemed to have started during dell
updates and I thought dell might have the solution. I have been working on
this problem now for about a month. Anyway, thanks to all that has or will
try to help me. I can be contacted off the list as I do not want to clutter
up the list.

Thanks again,

Hi, Marten. Fred wrote the following:

The problem is very basey audio

So, Fred is saying that his audio has too much bass, and not enough treble.

Fred,

What exactly is the problem?
Your computer becomes slow?

Maybe disable the Wavemax audio driver.
Open the startmenu, type:
services.msc
Tab when this program opens and you are in a list.
Find the Wavemax audio driver. I don' have the exact name, something with
Wavemax I thought.
Right click on it and choose properties.
Set startup type: disable.

Your sound will still work without this driver.

Kind regards, Marten

It shows up as SoundBlaster Play in device manager. Nothing fancy. It was
selected by a local tech and has given me no problems since. The RealTech
went squirlly everytime there was a Dell update and sometimes disappeared
completely, leaveing me to try to hear Jaws from the internal speaker.

The Dell Pro support is worth the cost. I had the same North American tech
every time and she took all the time needed to finally locate the problem.

Hey there, Tony, which usb sound blaster card did you go with? Appologize
for not introducing myself, I'm Brian Zolo and I'm located in Gahana, Ohio.
Feel free to call me BZ, grin! I'd sure like to get some better sound out
of this dell inspiron 5502 which has 16 gigs of ram but realtek just doesn't
do good sound justice, grin! Have a great day and sure look forward to your
reply. BZ!

I had a similar problem with my Dell sound a few years ago. After many
calls to Dell Pro support and a new motherboard we finally gave up on the
onboard sound and added a Sound Blaster card.

Hi, Fred. On your Dell computer, have you gone into Properties for the
selected playback device, to make sure that all special effects are turned
off? This would be in the Spacial Sound tab of Properties for the selected
playback device.
