Some sound cards support ASIO, which is a driver that allows low latency within Cubase. I doubt that your sound card supports this. So, in order to get your soundcard to work, try going to the start>programs>steinberg>MME setup as well as the multimedia setup and adjusting settings in there. Within Cubase, try setting your card to direct x ASIO under Tools/Settings.
