Hey guys,
my new computer arrived two days ago, which is running just fine. 
I only have one major problem though; I am using a Logitech USB Digital Precision Gaming headset, so it uses its own sound device instead of the onboard motherboard sound device......thingy.
Anyways, to the point; my new sound card works just fine with my headset, although just the sound. The headset consists out of two plugs, green (sound) and pink (microphone), which I can then plug into a little box thing, which has a USB cable on the other end, so that's how it's a USB headset.
When I plug my microphone into the soundcard, my microphone doesn't work anymore. The +20dB microphone boost is turned on, and all sliders are on max. Any ideas? 
Soundcard: Creative XFI ExtremeMusic
Thanks in advance.
