| 1389126 | 2014-11-28 03:17:00 | Have you tried right clicking in the blank space of the recording device panel then ensuring that Both View Disabled Devices and View Disconnected Devices options are checked? Stereo mix is often hidden in there, If it still is not apparent you will have to use a driver that supports it, often older Vista or XP drivers. More details here www.howtogeek.com Both ticked Dave and that link was where I read about having to use old drivers. Usually its update your drivers, not backdate them. :illogical |

| 1389127 | 2014-11-28 03:29:00 | Sorry my advice wasn't any help. I think the reasoning behind them disabling stereo mix in newer drivers, was that it made it possible to make your own high quality recordings of whatever you like. They can't be allowing that, eh? :( So either it's a driver roll back or nothing it would appear. |

You could be right Dave, but as you can see from my previous post Realtek have provided working drivers, but a 120meg download no less. To think we used to put our drivers on a floppy. :D |

| 1389131 | 2014-11-28 21:17:00 | So had you been using the generic Microsoft driver? Hard to believe anything fitted on a floppy these days, although there is an entire operating system written in assembly that will fit on one, http://www.menuetos.net/ In fact with the requirements of todays mobile computing, such an OS (and applications of course) written entirely in assembly, would seem to be the best option Less storage required for the code by a huge factor Lower machine overheads, which would mean faster and more energy efficient phones, watches etc. Only problem would be convincing the present generations of developers to make the change back to lower level languages. |

| 1389132 | 2014-11-29 00:13:00 | For a desktop I had, I'm sure I had to have a short double male (3.5 mm connector) cable connected between the sound card and a input (line in or microphone maybe) to record. A similar solution is described here (www.niharsworld.com) but also using a splitter. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
