MMmmm.... hopefully there's a jpg attached that may explain.

Hit your volume icon on the taskbar, choose "options", "properties", tick "recording", click "ok", then you get the recording control.

You may have a "what u hear" option. If not try "Wave Mix" or "Wave".

Hope this helps. When using Audacity to record you'll see the shape of the waves straight away so you know whether it's working or not.

Hope this helps.
