Windows 98 uses an old driver model that won't allow a lot of things to work, especially USB products. Probably why the uca didn't work.
There is a small green stereo mini-jack on the sound card or motherboard. It's a line level stereo out. You just need the right adapter cable.
... and then the wheel fell off.

if u wanna run stereo u will need 1/8 tip ring sleeve "stereo" on one end and then (2) tip sleeve "mono's" on the other end unless u have a single stereo input jack on your mixer

unless running in mono doesnt bother u. u might miss some important parts of the music though in mono, depending how it is mixed
