- What we need here is some enterprising soul that will write a TSR
- or a device driver to redirect speaker output to the (card-of-choice)
- once (card-of-choice) is installed. This could be loaded on boot and
- all sound should then come out thru the card.
-
- I am amazed that sound card manufacturers don't provide this with
- their own cards.

- The solution still requires a sound card. To increase the volume
- of your in-board speaker, you will have to somehow increase the signal,
- which is basically what an AMP does. By the time you spend money on
- some kind of AMP, install it, replace the blown speaker, etc... You
- probably should just buy the sound card... ;-)
