You can easily record audio in Windows XP, using its build-in audio recorder. You can use that to record any audio the soundcard outputs. Now I'm using Windows 7. It doesn't work like this anymore. The standard build-in audio recorder in Win7 seems to be only capable of recording audio input (microphone, headset). I tried various audio recording software, including audacity or No23 and I was said I'm lacking certain drivers. My soundcard is "Realtek High Definition Audio" (I think). I've been looking for a solution to this for a long time... Please help me! Thank you.

Thanks to Dacicus, I now know a solution! Go to sound device management and in the "recording" tab, right-click and check "show disabled devices". In my case, "stereomix" popped up and I activated it. Now I can record audio from my computer. :) Problem solved.
