Mic problems

Hardware and technical stuff
1

When I use my mic in vista 64 I can here myself talk and I can’t find a way to get it to stop. The only mic controls I can find is on, off and volume, oh and concert hall sound effects. This becomes very annoying because not only do I hear myself but every other damn noise that is being made. My current sound card is a USB2 X-Fi 5.1. I like the card overall but this mic thing drives me crazy. Any ideas on how to get it to stop.
