My computer also has a headphone/mic jack on the front of the the PC. Will this card support those jacks as well if I disconnect them from the MB?

I don't think so. The audio jacks (both front and back) that came with the computer are hard wired to the motherboard and once you enable the sound card, those are disabled. I bought the card my built in sound card failed. I was hoping the new card supported EQ function but it does not thus the audio/music sound like crap. I eventually swapped computers with my wife and gave her the Creative card as she can't hear the difference. I was disappointed the this card performance.

I tested it on my computer and it doesn't work. Probably, it can be easily fixed with a few wires.

I don't see how that would be possible. The jack in your PC is what it is, no matter what you plug into it.

This cable will not do that for you. I bought this because I have 2 PC's side by side and I wanted to connect them to the same set of headphones. Your headphones with mic should have 2 separate plugs coming off of it and they would have to each be plugged into the proper holes.

Probably not -- the PC would need a stereo mic input jack, and most PC mic inputs are mono. If it worked at all on a mono input jack, you would not be getting both of the mic's channels.

No. The only compatibility would be to get 2 channel audio. The mic would not work and neither would any of the other channels. This is designed to be used with a 7.1 soundcard on a PC.

I have purchased it, to use it with my headphone and while this card is plugged in it's the sound card that outputs the signal.We also use it on a server at work. The server did not have a sound card on the motherboard(build in) nor and external car. This card gave sound to this PC.

No one makes a sound card like that anymore really, I'm building a new comp and I'm looking for a built in mobo. But if you must get one read the reviews. The soundblasters don't have the 7.1 jacks for the tiamats.

I mostly use this card for headphones, however I would guess no to your question. Maybe if you plug the front panel audio into this card and plug your other speakers in up there would you maybe be able to do that. maybe ask on like head-fi.org as they will probably know much more than me. I also, do not own this sound card anymore, as my new motherboard did not have a pci connector :/ Some people might not agree, but after purchasing my new xonar essence stx, I would say this card is hardly any different sounding.

I have an older HP Pavilion laptop that doesn't "see" my onboard soundcard. The USB external soundcard is a soundcard itself, so it replaces the onboard card. It works great on my laptop - simply plug it in and attach headphones or external powered speakers. It won't make the laptop speakers work, so you have to have separate speakers or headphones/earbuds. I don't your PC, but it worked great for me.

This card will do a couple of functions that others will not. You must have the right drivers. I will not tell you in this review, contact me directly.

If you have the USB version technically you don't the card for anything if you have the analog one yes you can plug it using the 3-pin XLRM-type to standard 1/8" jack. Good Choice with the Audio-Tech, one of the best Mics in the market by the way.

I honestly don't know. I have several audio cards and have never bothered to use any of their digital features. I bought this card only because my onboard audio failed and I needed something to use in place of it. Sorry.

It should no problem. You might need to move your hdd caddys around. The card is reference size .

It uses a single "standard HD audio block" https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive?downloadById=e491314f-3dbc-4cb9-a906-7ed90d18dc55&attachment=0 that is either on your main board, (some mainboards may have two HD Pin blocks. If your's does then you will have no problem with the installation. If your mainboard has only a single block, then you will have to buy a 2.50 - 6.00 inline HD "Y" adapter; or similar. As far as your card goes, they used to make 4 pin aux - HD adapters, but I am not sure if they still do or not. By the looks of your card, you would not be able to directly connect the dashboard to it, (other then the above stated) It is a good dashboard, that I have not had any problems with at all, but the lack of the extra adapters, was it's only drawback.

Only for the two USB 3 ports to work. Everything else will work fine. If you do not have a USB 3 connection on your motherboard, you can get a pci-e USB 3 card for cheap (~ $10)and use that. Just make sure that it also has the internal connectors.

This sound card connects to laptop with USB. You can also use your headphones. I never tried microphone. But It should be compatible.

Yes, but I'd be more concerned about why your motherboard's SATA ports no longer work. This card connects through a slot on the motherboard, and if your motherboard has problems, there may be problems in connecting this card as well.
