Thanks for the help! Hi Tim. Could you verify something? I only use my Audigy2 soundcard, and have the onboard card disabled with the jumpers on the MOBO. Do you still have your onboard card enabled? If so, and you're now able to play midi files, the fact that Laura still has her onboard card enabled, has nothing to do with her inability to play midi files. Glad you got yours working. Nigel.
