Yeah, in theory .. but he is using BiaB 2006 .. and I don't remember what it could/couldn't do .. that was quite a while ago.

Clarification on his question would probably help also, like you said. There's a chance with the combination of XP/BiaB2006/AC97 card that he may need to use 'real-time' mix output (or WhatUHear) .. which was a bugger to set up sometimes on such a system.


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
