Robert thanks, very clear explanation, problem is, now I can't even record LOL. something is being recorder but it's not the tape it just seems to be the sound of the machine. I have windows 98 and jaws 3.5 and am trying to record with cdex but when I go to check the items you suggested jaws doesn't tell me whether an item is checked or unchecked. If I have both line in and mic checked then when I check the record volume one or other of these is muted . Any thoughts Tessa
