Connect your Bass Pod xt to your computer and run Line 6 Monkey. It will help you identify and install the required drivers.

+1 to Silverhead

Have you connected the Bass Podxt to the PC via USB ?

If you have never done this you will need drivers.

This is a Bass Podxt and there is no cd/mp3 input in the pod...only midi.....there is a Model Out along with headphones Out

I tried putting the the headphones out to the mic in on the PC but that didn't work (do I have to attach the USB too at the same time?)....I'll try again, this time with the USB connected.....do I have to go to the line6.com website too and if I do, what do I do on the website?

If I put the PC out to the Pod In then where do I plug my bass?

I'll try again.......

Otherwise, the Pod gets sold and I'll just get a mixer, that seems the easiest solution.....it's just that I'd like to use the effects and tuner on the Pod too

There are several methods. You don't mention what model Pod you have, bu if it uses a usb connection to your computer, it should become your soundcard when connected. Your computer tunes will play through the Pod, so connect your speakers/headphones to your Pod to monitor the sound.

Or, if your Pod has a cd/mp3 input you could route the headphone output from your PC into the cd/mp3 input.

Or, have you tried connecting the outputs (headphone out would be best) of your Pod to the microphone input on your PC?

Another alternative is to use a small mixer, and connect both your computer and your Pod outputs into separate mixer inputs.
