Good catch - both the problem and TAG in wolf.=20

Probably is a good idea to have all the latest drivers for everything on =
the system as well...although I can't ever seem to find time to do so...

  After many hours of trying to Wolf TAG with no success I begin to =

  Wolf while running Windows 98.  XP was installed on the machine back =

  drive the Argo input level bar into the red but with XP the bar seemed =

  Wolf with Cool Edit gave similar results.  I could set recording input =
level=20
  just above -6 but that was the limit.  I told my youngest Son about =

  problem on which he quickly replied that I needed to update the sound =

  drivers for XP.  He then poked a few keys and voila! Argo would hit =

  Cool Edit could be driven to zero.  I recorded and processed TAG's =

  withe the following results:

  About an hour before this recording was made John put on a steady =
