e-mu 1820m unusual microphone question

Hey, i don't know if this is the best forum to ask this in, but it's the weekend and i can't call emu tech support.

I have a headset with a mic that i use when playing games online to talk to people. The headset has a stereo (two red rings) 1/8 jack for the microphone. The problem is that the emu cards and the audiodock don't have any 1/8 inputs. It has 6 1/4 inputs though.

PreSonus Eureka AD192 with EMU1820M sync issue

I am using the SPDIF out on my PreSonus Eureka to my EMU1820M SPDIF in. My host is set for 44Khz and my Eureka is set for the same. I am getting a low level crackle on my audio. If I set the Eureka to 88KHz it goes away but the tone suffers a tad.
Does anyone know If I need to use the BNC world clock to sync the EUreka to the EMUs 44Khz?

Thanks

E-MU 1820m

I have heard very good things about the E-MU 1820m and am seriously thinking about buying it. My PC meets all the system requirements, my processor is 2.70 GHz but it is a celeron processor. Someone else mentioned that there might be a compatibility issue between celeron processor and this soundcard. Does anyone have experience or heard about this?
