Simple soundcard problem (I hope!)

Topic Simple soundcard problem (I hope!)
Right I have just upgraded my PC. Simple question hopefully, I have the same soundcard installed (Soundblaster live).
I was running a source through my line-in on the soundcard with no problems until I upgraded it. Now when I select "Line in" as my recording source it simply cuts it out and I obviously can't record from there.
I am getting frustrated with it now, someone must be able to help?
It's got to be something really simple!

Cheers.

Firstly get good drivers for your card. I wouldn't trust anything ready installed drivers on Windows (even XP). Good drivers for SB live can be found for example from http://come.to/sblive. The software for these drivers doesn't maybe look the neatest, or even simple but the guys making the drivers have achieved latencys of even 2 ms. Which is great! If you still can't get the line-in to work you might have to change some of the software cable patching. This can done in a window found somewhere from Mixer-> DSP (or something from there)

I tried the site, don't work!

Thing is, with the drivers.... is that gonna fix it then?
Cause I can hear the sound coming through fine, when I select Line In as my source to record from that's when it cuts out!

Beefy-

I have seen this before, long ago when I used a SB. You have to enable the card to monitor the record source. It was under something like "Advanced Options" or something, and I think you had to select something like "What you hear" or something like that.

Basically, you have to enable the full duplex mode of the card in the software.
