Cannot record sound on Windows 7 Pro PC - An audio recording device cannot be found
When I try to record sound using the Windows Built-in Sound Recorder I get a Dialog box saying "An audio recording device cannot be found". I also get this in Audacity. I am trying to record sound from my CD Rom and it does not work. When I go into Control Panel > Sound and click on the recording tab all I see is Microphone and Line In - Nothing else. I have done the right click and seleceted "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices", nothing changes. I need to be able to record from my CD Rom and anyother sources.

Looks like Windows Update must have installed a generic Windows drive for the sound card. Downloaded a driver for the SoundMax sound card from Dell and installed it. Everything works now.
