Sound Recording

[Guest]

My problem is that: i have plugged my microphone into the mic input and can
clearly hear my voice coming through the speakers yet when I press record on
programs such as sound recorder it doesnt pick anything up. This is true of
all audio programs. My computer is only 2 weeks old so Im thinking that
possibly something isnt configured correctly as surely all new computers
sound cards would allow audio capturing? please could somebody help?!

In whatever app you're using to record, check that microphone is selected as
the audio input - other options are line-in or CD or.....
