Hello, can it really be this hard? I'm used to the Windows XP way of doing
things, where the volume control has check boxes to select whether the line
in or the microphone port is used. If I now work in Windows 7, I have to
click on speakers in the system tray and go down a list of several
nondescript options that say microphone. Line in is at the bottom, and when
I select it and hit properties, sometimes I get the listen tab, along with
the levels tab, but sometimes not. When I don't get this set of tabs, I hear
no noise from my recording source, and only have the general tab. I think
I'll have to reboot to get these settings to show up. Also, when things are
working, how can I switch to using the microphone rather than the line in
port, such as when I want to do voice chats? I used to just keep the volume
control open and could switch back and forth in a few seconds. Am I just not
going about it the right way, or has Microsoft really made it complicated
and arduous? I have made a dual-boot system, with both XP and Windows 7, but
I prefer to keep going in Windows 7, since it's working pretty well for the
most part.
