I recently purchased an OEM version of the SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 for a
computer I was building at home (the full title is CREATIVE SOUNDBLASTER
LIVE! DE 5.1 OEM and the part # is SB0220). When it came time to install
the
card, I noticed that there was no CD IN connector on the board.

I've never seen a sound card without a CD-in either. However, you do not
need any CD audio cables nowadays. Just enable Digital CD audio extraction.
Depending on your OS its either in the Control Panel/Multimedia/CD Music or
Device Manager/CDROM drives/Property of the drive.

Correct.This was a feature added by MS from WMP 7 and later however it
also means that the Wave volume fader also controls the CD audio
volume.Error Correction should also be applied.
