Windows 7 Recording Problems.

Hello,

Ive been searching for months for a solution to my problem but unfortunately ive been unable to solve this.

So i thought id try here.

I bought 2 sets of gaming headphones, one for myself and one for my girlfriend.

I did this because i work away and its much cheaper to talk over the internet than it is by phone.

She is using my pc which is running Windows Vista Ultimate and the recording is working fine over there.

Im using a slightly older pc which was running xp but is now on the BETA 7100 Build Windows 7.

I have the headphones on all the time the sound is great, but it just will not pick up anything in the recording devices, not even if I "Show disabled devices"

Its no where to be seen, its a line in and not a usb.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ben.
 
Its knocking on about 4 years old now i think,

Ive upgraded the RAM & Graphics card though.

Its still today not a bad system but i think the drivers may be out of date, but ive no clue how to get a hold of them.

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, much thanks.. It seems you have the 945 family chipset and the drivers are here:

Link Removed due to 404 Error

Not knowing what you were running exactly I chanced it and posted the 32bit version. if your running in 64bit then apologies..
 
Hmm.. maybe we should now look at your recording devices and make sure everything is ok in that department...
What are you using Goochington?
 
Could you look in Device manage and see if any entry has a yellow flag next to it on the PC that is not working correctly?
 
Yup, that would help..That way we can determine if a driver is missing or not... Good thinking there Reghakr :cool:
 
Could you go to Start > Run, and type msinfo32.

Expand the Components section and click on your video card. This will give us more details.

Is your network card running OK/

I would ckick on the entry and choose remove or uninstall.

Windows might pick up a driver for it on reboot.
