Hi All

First time poster... thx in advance to any of you technical wizzards who might be able to help.

Just wondering if it is at all possible to have audio channelled through 2 usb ports on the same PC listening to the same audio. Unfortunately the headsets are different manufacturers. I dont know if that is relevant but i thought i would mention it.

I would love to be able to listen to music with my son at the same time while my little girl watches movies on my laptop... lol... You can see my dilemma?

I'd be extremely grateful to anyone who can help...

Windows XP Pro... C-Media Headset and Logitech Headset... both on USB... and i will download any media player the helps if anyone has a suggestion.

Thanks everyone.

It all depends on how many inputs/outputs are on your audio card. I know that you are plugging it through usb but even so the audio card will only be able to hold so many sound signals at one time. go to the control panel and double click 'sounds and audio devices' (with your headsets plugged in).

select the defualt sound inputs / outputs to your preference. To run two headsets you'll probably need a good audio card though.
