IE Music
1. Do you mean "for example, music / singing" or do you mean "Internet Explorer music", or something else?
2. If you are recording with a microphone, what is the make / model and how is it connected to your computer?
3. How do your headphones connect to the computer?

I assume that you are wanting to hear the "live" microphone input while you sing.
Unfortunately built-in sound cards do not provide "direct monitoring", so the only way to hear the live input from the mic is to use "Software Playthrough", but routing the sound through the computer is slow and creates a very noticeable (and off-putting) delay. You can try it ("Transport menu > Transport Options > Software Playthrough") but I think you will be better off without it.
