No Sound Recorder



I'm trying to transfer cassette tape files to my computer so I can re-record
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 wondering if this could be a problem arising from a Windows Update? 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?
