good morning, and welcome to mixvibes fourm, (need a smiley sipping coffie),the topic of sound cards , should get you on your way, ,a little more info as to what you are expericening and what not happening , would help, use a sound blaster x-fi platium fality 7.1 on my PC,. in essences you have to go into preferences/ audio. and see what options you have to set up your outputs to go to main and to cue/headphones.

IM using the soundblaster surround 5.1 pro.
I have windows 7.
I have a gateway ms2285 with Amd athlon x2 m300
I have no clue what to do.
the sound card has a speaker and headphone input but when i put my headphones in the headphone jack the speakers turn off and i need both to work.

Okay, excuse me. I did not want to be impolite!!! There are often users posting threads four or five times to say it is urgent. So again: excuse me!!!!

I understand

the sound card, headphone it is set up to turn one or the other off when you use it, the heaphone should be connected to one of the pair of out put from the sound card. you have to go into preferences/audio in the Cross program and assign the headphone/monitor section to a pair of speaker out puts, and the main out to your amp if you assign the main out to front right/left then assign the headphone to rear right/left, it might be trail and error to find out which pair of outputs go to headphones/monitor i can use the sound blaster x-fi platium fatailaty 7.1 by itself, or i use the home 7 sound doggle to monitor with.( by using asio4all to add then together), check the fourm search tab for sound cards, multi channell sc, using to sc. also the tips and tut section for instruction in seting up asio 4all. pleanty of options and choices for a solution

Ive been looking thru the posts and I cant find this asio4all post or whatever. I dont understand what exactly that is.???

in the section tips and tutorial under the heading of ASIO4ALL is the info you are seeking Not sure if your sound blaster is installed inside your computer or external asi4all is used to add soundcards together Does your computer have multichannel soundcard outputs if it does, then try to route thru the audio section of Cross the outputs for main and headphones. If your soundblaster soundcard is external/usb hooked up then you might need asio4all
