I have opened three hidden files for autoexec.nt which refet to sound blaster. One of the lines seems to refer to 16 bit, without mentioning the word "bit". All three autoexec files were modified 8/18/02 - I assume this is when my XP computer was built. Now what do I do to get rid of the annoying message.
