Hello,
The microphone input/the ability to record using the microphone at all with an integrated RealTek sound card in a Gateway pc appears to not be working - possibly due to some signal damage.
I needed a decent sound card, so I now just purchased a Santa Cruz sound card made by Turtle Beach.

I don't want to damage this new card and would like to know the correct way to set this up for use with Cakewalk Home Studio 2 and my Behringer Eurorack UB802 mixer/preamp.

The input and output on the RealTek still work, but, if possible - I would like to disable it and use the Santa Cruz as the primary sound card.
How do I 'disable' the onboard RealTek card?
Listed below are the cables I have; My main question here is: What is the correct way to set this up, using the cables I have and any other cables/adapters not listed?
If I need something else, please let me know. I would really appreciate any input on this. Thanks...ALOT.
All of the cables have male connectors.
The (parentheses) represent the number of connectors on each end.
The dotted lines '-------' represent the cable in between the two ends.
