if you can not turn off your onboard EQ then it must be needing to be on so it can be used as a preamp.
the only way to tell is to try and find its controls
and while there look for any mention of freq's that it uses.
and compair them to media monkey's EQ freq's
then just use media monkeys freq's that DON'T match the onborad's Eq.
and adjust your mm EQ to make your sound better.
if you can turn off your onboard then turn it off and check monkeys eq.
then turn monkeys eq off and test your on board eq that is the only way to find which is better.
i have a turtle beach sound card here. so i adjusted this winxp to match what the sound card eq did not have. and i adjusted the sound card and use both.
but on the win98 computer i don't have an sound card EQ, so i use the media monkey's EQ Presets.
it seems that any one that makes an Eq for the computer sound players.
always picks different freq's to put on their default Eq. so each one is either better or worse depending on your hearing of the different Freq's.
