Sound cards
Calling all Course 6s? So I think the onboard sound in our desktop computer is dying. Hopefully I'm interpreting the symptoms correctly.
If so, it seems to me that my best solution is to buy a sound card. Am I right? If the onboard sound on the motherboard is malfunctioning, will that malfunction a sound card too, or can I just tell the onboard sound to shut up and let the sound card take over? (And how would I tell it that?) And what question am I not asking that I should be?
Also, grrrrrr.
