Sorry if this post is in the wrong forum but I'm stumped!
Some one emailed me the answer to an internal sound card problem I was having (thanks Aireckzoser!) but does anyone know how to do this: QUOTE "That sound is coming from your powerbook, 9 times out of 10 you have the black Powerbook, I had that problem before, and I found out that it was the OSX OS, to get rid of the sound you have to reinstall your hold Operating system so I hope you have OSX install CD. The Problem came from trying to run a standalone VSTi using your internal soundcard at 16bit." Also please please help: if I do the above, will I lose everything on my computer??? -------------------- |

If you drop the OSX install disk in - It will 'give you the option' of doing an archive and install when it detects an "operating" OS on your Mac...
Be Careful though! ie: READ EVERYTHING... I think the selections are on a "customize" page in the first or second screen... It won't tell you - But you have to LOOK for it... Lastly, I think the default is the "Archive and Install" selection... This essentailly renames your personal folders and your preferences within the OS (For you old OS9'rs - "Unblesses the system folder"), Keeps them available on your hard drive - Then installs a fresh copy of OSX in the standard "folder name" of "system"... Did this answer your question? Riverdog -------------------- |
