Hi Neville, I've pasted below instructions for telling Jaws which sound card to 
use, posted to the list earlier in the year. I've never had this problem, so 
haven't needed to test it.
                good luck,
                    John.
The following was written for a Soundblaster card. Just substitute your 
sound card for that one.
1. Using My Computer or Windows Explorer, browse your hard drive to the 
currently running version of JAWS and find the jfw.ini file in that folder.

2. Press ENTER to open.

3. You should find some lines that read:

Synth1Name=eloq

Synth1LongName=Eloquence for JAWS

Synth1Driver=eloq

The number doesn't matter, it may be 1, 2, or 3, but it must be the same for 
all entries for Eloquence.

4. Add the following line after the driver line: Synth1Port=SB Live! Wave 
Device Of course, you need to make sure that the synth number matches the 
other

lines, so that if the Driver line read:

Sytn3Driver=eloq

Then the port line would read:

Synth3Port=SB Live! Wave Device

The text after the = sign in the Port line comes from Control Panel/Sound & 
Multimedia/Audio tab It must be one of the entries that can be chosen for 
Preferred

Playback device.

5. Save your changes and exit Notepad.
