So basically, what has happened here is that you neglected to use an electronic condom (unbalanced to balanced transformer) to protect yourself. It only takes onetime and you're dead.
And remember, always put a condom on your microphone also.

update:

i've been bugging HP help all day
and after uninstalling the MOTU drivers with "Windows Install Clean UP", it was working !!!!!!!!! :icon_exclaim:

yet, i restarted the computer, and now it's not working anymore.
drivers have been re-installed, bios audio detection has been reset, different drivers installed...
what ever it was, it was the MOTU drivers that fucked it up, not the 48v
problem still isn't resolved... maybe it's "jack detection"

hopefully i've got patience to put up with these bozzos for another 6 hours of trouble shooting
god damned VISTA!!!!! (that's where i think the problem lies)

this sufferance cause by using recording gear with my wife's computer...
i usually keep em seperated for my own protection, looks like i'm the one who busted her stuff in this situation.

For $15, you can purchase a set of emergency CDs from Hewlett-Packard. It will allow you to reload the operating system plus all of the ancillary Hewlett-Packard included software and drivers, etc., etc.. Of course you will have to reload all of your personal software as it will make your computers a virgin again. Ask your wife if she would like that? Having her computer fixed or being a virgin again?
