My mobo is an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe.

The problem I am having is being able to use my new Kinyo KY-100 surround sound headphones AND have a microphone hooked-up.

Since these headphones only have analog connections (3), I have to use NVSWAP to change my usual ports to those supporting front, subwoofer, and surround connections. When you do this, the MIC input port becomes one of those three.

The problem is that I would still like to be able to use my mic since I use VOIP for the online game I play quite a bit - Battlefield 1942.
I noticed the mobo has onboard connections for another mic, but will I be able to use this to jury-rig a connection for my mic AND still be able to use it?

Any suggestions? TIA!!!
