Default Re: Audio is only comping from my monitor, and not my audio interface

We cannot guess what your monitor speakers or others are actually connected to and how. That "what is it connected to" is what you set the playback engine to in Pro Tools.

What *exact* (e.g. make/model/part number) audio interface/sound card/chipset is installed in the computer that you are hoping for Pro Tools to use? And does it have a native ASIO driver for that interface/chipset? Did you install that driver (and what exact version did you install, ideally provide a link to the driver download you used) ? If not ASIO4ALL is the best you can do (it wraps any old Windows WDM audio driver and makes it looks like ASIO).

If building an DAW/audio PC and you want to use the internal soundcard/chipset the first thing to do is make sure that has a native ASIO driver. Does yours? What is shown under Windows device manager for that device/driver?

ASIO4ALL frequently sucks. But even if you are stuck with ASIO4ALL on all your audio interfaces you should be able to configure it to work with what you need. You need to read up on using the ASIO4ALL control panel in the ASIO4ALL documentation, found online.
