Just now i installed my sound blaster card and installed the cd that came with it , i dont hear any sound and my mic is not working i have unmuted the mic in sourrend mixer , but still nothing. Also im using a headset (planatronics audio .90's).

i have my connecters like this:

lineIn(mic connecter is here) lineout1(headset connecter is here) lineout2(nothing)
lineout3(nothing)


So can anyone help me? thanks

Have you been to Creative's website and downloaded the latest drivers for the card?

Well, I don't know that card, but the Audigy and earlier SB cards had a jack for the microphone. Line In is for another source.

Ditto.

the fact your bud hears music.. by any chance you mean you were playing a CD and you have the internal audio cable to your CD hooked to the card? That internal connector may be the line in connector (shared with the 1/8 rear jack line in), not the CD in connector and thats why he hears it.

Look for the mic in jack, mics dont work in the line in jack.
