121296 2003-02-14 21:50:00 I have two PC's running XP Pro networked, and the Gateway PC (They're running ICS) has speakers attached.

However, from time to time, I wanna be able to listen to music or whatever on my PC, but its a real pain having to crawl behind the PC's and swap it over... and then there's the rest of the family, they dont really care how many plugs they pull out of the back of my PC - Provided they get the speakers back should I forget to put them back.

I want a piece of software that will basically let me 'borrow' the speakers in a sense.

Understand what I mean?

I want to use the sound card/speakers on the other PC to play sounds from my PC.

Thanks

121298 2003-02-15 00:25:00 Another way is to get a male to male jack cable and one goes from your spk out/line out to the other PC's line in .. but the PC who has the speakers have to stay on :) SKT174 (1319)
121299 2003-02-15 02:28:00 Okay, thanks.
The speakers are pretty much always on anyways :D

I'll give it a shot... Thanks :-)
