Well recently i had popping in my speakers and i had just the soundcard onboard my Asus Motherboard. So I went and bought a soundblaster audigy. It fixed the popping. BUT now my mic wont work. Even though the sound comes from my speakers fine. I have a feeling it has to do with drivers for my onboard mobo interfereing with my new card. PLEASE HELP ME FIX MY MIC!! :(
 
Or in the Device Manager on many computers... Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager.

You have to dis-able the on-board audio in the bios.

Im in my bios in the advanced tab.
----------------------------------
ADVANCED:
JumperFree Configuration
LAN Cable Status
USB Configuration

CPU Configuration
Chipset
Onboard Devices Configuration
PCIPnP
Speech Configuration
-----------------------------------

So I clicked on Onboard Devices Configuration and I get this list

Configure __________ Super IO Chipset
-------------------------------------
Azalia Controller [Enabled]
Onboard 1394 Controller [Enabled]
Onboard PCIEX GbE LAN [Enabled]
LAN Option ROM [Enabled]
Onboard WIFI Controller [Enabled]
Detecting Device Time [Quick Mode]
Silicon Image Controller [Disabled]
Onboard Game/MIDI Port [Disabled]
-------------------------------------

I have no idea what to change to turn off my onboard sound.
 
Do it in the Device driver. Much easier.

Start->Settings->Control Panel->System->Hardware->Device Manager then scroll down... and select delete or disable
 
You don't have to disable anything.

In the sound Control Panel applet, make sure that you have set both your playback and recording default devices to the Audigy. Also, it should be pretty obvious to check that you have not muted the relevant input or set the recording volume too low.
 
The Azalia Controller is the onboard sound. Disable it if you want to disable onboard sound. I have a Gigabyte board with the same onboard audio controller.
