I have just purchased Nero 6 reloaded so I can record what I am
playing with my soundcard using Wave Editor


There are free applications out there that would do this. Audiograbber
is one, I think. And there's Total Recorder which is a lot cheaper than
the full version of Nero. I've just bought Nero myself though, but not
for its audio recording capabilities.


but I cannot get anything
to record at all. Everything else is OK and I have a moderm PC (Dell
Optiplex, WIN XP SP2 with all updates)


In Windows: go to Control Panel = Sound and Audio Devices Properties =
Audio tab, and choose the option you want in the Sound recording
drop-down list.

In Wave Editor: go to Options = Device Settings, and set the input
device to the same option as for Sound recording above.

Click record then click record again in the dialogue box.

In the dialogue box you see after clicking record the first time, the
audio levels should be going up and down if there's audio on the input
device you've just set. If there's not, check your cables.


My friend with WIN2K had problems since the last round of Windows
updates but eventually manged to solve it by reinstalling loads of
stuf but Ihave had no such luck


I've got XP with SP2, and it records okay.
