I got a Plantronics USB headset that I have set up as the default recording
device but not for playback. I never needed a disk for it as it didn't have
one.

Hi,
I only use it for the screen reader, and a bit of Skype/other audio,
probably not a good all round sound card. I know of someone who uses this
as a dictation sound card though, as she gets predictable results on several
machines.
Thanks.
Andrew.

Hi Andrew,
Are the CMedia devices any good then? I use the Griffin Imic for this
purpose. Do the Cmedias shape up as an actual sound card?
Thanks.
All the best
Steve

Hi,
Using a USB sound device is a grate way to ensure you have sound as early as
possible in the install. It also works with many operating systems, the
ones I have tended to go for are the c-media devices, because they just work
out of the box, don't buy the Creative Labs ones as they try to do too much,
and thus require further drivers. They usually cost around £15-20, no more.
Thanks.
Andrew.
