I want to be able to preview my mixes in my headphones.

My sound card has 6 jacks, one green, one blue, one black, one pink, one yellow and one grey. Additionally, I have a microphone and a headphone jack in the front. I can use my 2.1 speakers or my headphones on the headphone jack in the front or the green jack in the back. I can not, however use both at the same time (same sound, not a preview). Ive tried plugging both into all the other jacks, with all the different sound setups under config. Im assuming my sound card is at least a 4.1.

Thanks in advance!

on sound options choose

input :none
output : headphones

card : your card 4.1 or better

and then assign channels for main and headphones this way you can choose what output for it to come out :)

which model is your card?

Connect speakers and headphones in the rear panel of your sound card.
Green (Front) --> speakers
Black or Grey (Rear) ---> Headphones

Be sure you have enabled from the sound setup of Windows, your sound card setup (4.1 or more).
