Well, it's fixed, for now anyway haha.  I couldn't ever get it to work
with the onboard audio as mentioned/shown earlier in this thread.  So I
tried a creative labs SB pci card I had from bout 4 years ago and it
worked right off the bat.  Will try later with the onboard and see if
can ever get it to work.

Thanks for the help though,
