I want to connect my computer to a digital piano, which has MIDI, RCA and headphone ports. My x-fi sound card has a game port as an alternative to USB. What is the best kind of set-up for my situation?

Best option but probably nto the cheapest.
With what you have, I think a usb midi interface would be the way to go http://www.zzounds.com/cat--USB-MIDI-Interfaces--2434 It doesnt have to plug into sound card, any usb port will do (i believe)

How do you want to use it? Do you want to use the pianos sounds, or just the midi information?
