Did you happen to try uninstalling and then reinstalling Roxio, just to see
if that action, in and of itself, might possibly resolve it?

I'm trying to transfer cassette tape files to my computer so I can

to CDs.
I'm running XP Pro SP2 (OEM), and have built in 7.1 channel HD audio
built
into the ASUS motherboard (custom built computer). When I go to start>
all
programs> accessories> entertainment, the only thing listed is Windows
Media Player. There is no sound recorder as there was on my old
computer.
I tried to install it by clicking on "Add/remove Windows Components",
but
there was no "Entertainment Category". It didn't matter whether I did
this
from the control panel or from the Windows install screen from the OEM
disc. I tried reinstalling the "Accessories and Utilities" but that
didn't help -
still no sound recorder.
I also checked the OEM disc from my old computer (which my hubby has)
and it
didn't have the "entertainment" category either, but the sound recorder
is
shown in the all programs> accessories> entertainment category. I'm
pretty
sure it was always there, meaning I didn't install it later.
I checked the line in on the back of the computer by creating a loop and
it
is active and working properly.
I'm thinking this could be a problem arising from a Windows Update. I
had
audio problems with my last computer after updating, but I haven't a
clue as
to which update caused it.
I tried my old computer and it now doesn't recognize the line in or the
tape
deck. It was fine when I first did this, but I only got a few of my
tapes
transferred. Not sure when it stopped working though.
Can anyone please help me to fix this?

For a free audio application, you can try Audacity.
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Or look for sndrec32.exe on your machine.

I do have sndrec32.exe in my Windows> system32 folder (also an icon for it
in the system tray grouped with other sound apps under the Realtek Sound
Manager icon ). I'm not looking for a free audio app. I have Roxio and
Nero.
A recorder can't record what it can't hear. That's the problem. The tape
deck
should play through the line in and be transmitted to the computer
speakers
but it isn't. It stopped working on my old computer after some Microsoft
updates, but I'm not sure when.
I just installed the latest Realtek driver for the built-in sound on the
motherboard and it didn't fix the problem.
