But I saw a photo of you and young feller, you don't look a thing like your avatar! If I can say so, you're a good looking hunk of stuff. Not at all like your avatar. I'm still trying to figure out the message in that.

You know she's easy going and forgiving but I feel like crap for messing up her computer. She'd just shrug it off and say it's not near as bad as ways she's messed it up, but I still feel bad and want to fix it before she gets back. <BR/><BR/>Incidentally, switching back and forth from my sign-in to her sign-in when monitoring her stuff, sometimes I forget to go back to Gadfly sign-in. Then if I go blog surfing and make a comment, it shows up under HER name! So if you get a comment that does NOT sound like her speech patterns or vocabulary - it's really me. Sorry about that. :)Gadflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06974330477668544785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17213045.post-61455827245709152792008-03-13T08:54:00.000-05:002008-03-13T08:54:00.000-05:00Hello, Gadfly.That was good advice above.I would a...Hello, Gadfly.<BR/>That was good advice above.<BR/>I would add that, in such circumstances, rebooting the computer is always a good place to start. It re-initializes everything, so you start with a clean slate. It also runs the Plug-and-Play detector.<BR/><BR/>So, if all else fails, go to the Control Panel. Click on the System icon, and go to the Device Manager tab. Remove the sound card from the hardware profile, then reboot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17213045.post-2208461121931474752008-03-13T06:22:00.000-05:002008-03-13T06:22:00.000-05:00Click Start->control panel->Sound, Speech, and Aud...Click Start<BR/>->control panel<BR/>->Sound, Speech, and Audio Devices<BR/>->click "Adjust System Volume<BR/>On the window that pops up, slight the bar all the way to the right<BR/><BR/>There may be an icon in the taskbar that looks like a little speaker.
