If you can't then likely there is a dodgy connection somewhere. If you are getting sound through from the mic, but just can't record it, then go: Control Panel>Multimedia Click the Audio tab and look at the bottom half with recording options. If there is a volume slider, crank it up full. If there is a 'Customize' or 'options' or 'advanced' button, click it and the recording mixer control panel should pop up. Check that the mic in/out options are enabled and up their volume sliders. Remember that depending on your mic, it may have a very specific 'gain threshold' such that below a certain level, you just get nothing coming through. This is especially true for cheap, nasty mics. If that doesn't work, mate I have no idea.	Guest (0)
