I want to record what is playing on my pc. The make and model is Lead 3d sound 5.1.It has a mike and headphone port in the usb card which if I plug into is playing back the sound.

I am using a laptop that didnt seem to have a seperate soundcard so I have bought a usb soundcard, how do you record from this as recording device says Microphone usb but I get an error when I use this? I dont actually want to record from the microphone of the usb soundcard but from the soundcard it...
