In order to use these, one must open the Sound controll panel, select "built-in" sound, click on "Options", and then select "External audio". This will provide a far superior sound to that obtained via the microphone port, and I have found the results when using the built-in audio to be much better then when using the audio capabilities of the Radius Video Vision Card.
