No Sound While recording

Ok i have a problem when recording from an external source via the soundcard.
I am using  A USB Sound Blaster X-Fi Go By Creative. This item is really cool and  is being used as the default soundcard. The problem i have is that when in record on clicking record button the sound is coming through but i am unable to monior it and hearing nothing. As soon as recording is completed the section is then displayed onto the appropriate box and i can play the recoding back no problem. But how am i supposed to monitor exactly what the instrument i am playing sounds like? This being a guitar. I have treid to go through the set up but i still have no audio so that i can monitor what is being recorded.
Any help please Thankyou

Its ok i managed to get the sound after. It was due to the fact that the new sound card had not been configured. As of which it is now and i have sound however this leads me to my next question. But this one is solved. However i will leave the question as it is in case any other newbie like me cannot figure it? Hope what i found helps someone maybe.
