Hi Paul, Unfortunately you do not have a multi-channel card. Single channel cards only allow one mp3 or wav source to run through them. Multi-channels allow just what the name implies. I had to get rid of a creative labs PCI128 for the same reason. Got a sound blaster audigy for about 100 buckeroos at the time I snatched it and haven't looked back. Hopefully I am explaining this correctly if not I know that folks out hear can further clear this up.
