Sound Card
I have an integrated sound card on my comp. I was wondering if since I have and aftermarket sound card now and the intergrated one is disabled if I plug my headphones in a usb slot will that be using the integrated card or the aftermarker card?

Option 1: Run down to radioshack or walmart and pick up a splitter (Y adapter) and that will allow you to plug both your headphones and speakers into the line out put.
Option 2: Enable both sound cards and use your integrated sound for music and ventrillo and your aftermarket soundcard for games. I've done that before... Roger Wilco used to mess up the 3-d sound in games when it ran simutaneously on the same card.
Option 3: Upgrade your speakers to a set that has a mic output.
Option 4: Run the line out to an stereo amplifier and that will allow you to plug all your stuff in.
Good luck!
