Microphone??

[Ted Turner]

Hi,
I have my microphone plugged into my sound card. When I speak into it, I
can hear it coming through the speakers, but when I use a program such as
sound recorder, the program doesn't detect anything coming through the
microphone. All the settings (i.e volume and recording volume, mute etc) are
all ok but it doesnt seem to detect anything coming from the microphone. I
wish record myself playing the guitar in a music program I have bought but
it does the same. When I used to Have Win ME it worked but for some reason
XP doesn't work. It must have heard my guitar skills and doesn't want to
record it. LOL Thanks everyone.

In Sound Recorder, go to Edit/Audio Properties, and double check that the
sound card is set as default source for recording.

If you have a Creative Labs card (Soundblaster family), try using their
recorder. It can be set to record "anything" that is coming through the
card.
