Hi! There has to be a better solution than keep an old machine around. Even a cheap USB sound card might be better than that. Also updating drivers is very important. I had this same problem a while back with my windows 7 esktop. I do not have a dedicated separate sound card just the one that is on the mother board.

Steve, you have it pegged correctly.  Yes, my previous experiences
have involved Windows XP Professional, while all of the issues I am
trying to overcome here are with a Windows 7 notebook.  Yes, I too
have had that funny separation occur involving JAWS coming out of a
different output channel from the one where multimedia content is
playing.  I've not figured that one out, either.

I've not tried direct sound recording yet with a Windows 7 desktop
that has a separate, dedicated sound card.  So far I've used only this
notebook with built-in, integrated sound.  Regardless of the cause, a
third-party software solution is logical to try; but the one which
appears to work, according to testimonials I have read, seems to be
inaccessible.

Ultimately, my solution might look like keeping an older XP PC or
netbook around just to make and process simple sound recordings, as
well as other functions that don't necessarily require a lot of
memory-intensive multitasking.  My Windows 7 notebook is fast, and its
function above all is to perform tasks related to profitable work.
For this, I am satisfied it will do just fine.
