Thanks for getting back to me so quickly Willie. That is what I did with my Dell when I got home this evening. Took me a while to find documentation on the audigy card and I never did find anything on the firewire part of the card but I got the right color code for the inputs. It still wasn’t working until I activated the correct input on the windows mixer but then Victory was Mine! I still may try to get the firewire working for my laptop so I can be mobile but in the end I will probably save up a couple of bucks and spring for an M audio unit for $150 to $200 unless I hear of something better.
Thanks again
Mark
