I have a Dell Dimension 9150. It came with a SigmaTel audio card that supports 7.1 surround sound. Now, I am a dj from years ago, and thought of getting back into it. A friend of mine leant me some virtual dj software to see if it would get the spark back in me. The idea is to have the main music play through the speakers, and cue the song I'm going to play next through the headphones. I have a 2.1 speaker system which is plugged in the back. The headphone jack on the front overrides all sound from the speakers. Is it possible to set this up to where I can hear one thing in the headphones and another through the speakers....I'm sure there is settings within the software itself, but I'm curious to know if there are advance setting for the sound card as well. In my advanced settings it is selected to "desktop speakers". If you need more info on the computer, soundcard, or software, I would be happy to oblige. Thanks in advance!!

I tried every manageable connection between the speakers and headphones that I could think of with no luck. I haven't messed with the settings yet...I was hoping you guys could help me with that.

I take it this can't be done by the lack of replies....did I not explain correctly?

Hi Dose, sorry for the lack of response.

Unfortunately it's a sound card driver limitation that you can't do that without the aid of 3rd party software.

I've never seen the option at any rate.

Ok, thanks anyway!!
