5 Using Sound on Your PC Software Settings The operating system may change these settings when a card is installed or reinstalled in the following cases: • Another peripheral device is using the same I/O addresses, DMA channel, or interrupt setting as the sound card (known as a hardware conflict). • Another joystick/game connector is already in use in your system. Viewing the Software Settings All of the audio settings are software-configurable. There are no jumpers to set on the card. Plug and Play means you should never experience a conflict with the settings. You can view settings through the Device Manager, as follows: 1 Click the Start button and select Settings, then Control Panel. 2 Open System and click the Device Manager tab. 3 In the list of devices, expand the line Sound, video and game controllers. You will see the audio driver HP Audio Device. Select this and click Properties. 4 Click the Resources tab. Now you can view the settings. You may need to scroll the list to see all of the settings. Caution As many applications are designed to work with your default audio settings, you are advised not to change the settings unless you are very familiar with PC configuration. 5 To change a setting, first clear the checkbox Use Automatic Settings. Then select the resource type and click Change Settings. 6 Select a new setting using the scroll buttons and click OK. 7 Click OK again at the Properties window, and then click Yes at the confirmation message (but please read the message first!). 8 Click Close at the System Properties window. If you changed any settings, restart your PC for the changes to take effect. 73
