Sound recorder will not play back sound from the speaker and am not sure it is even recording...There are 3 sound plugs (on pc) one is for the speaker and have tried the other two for the mike. One acts as an amamplifier over the speakers and is still active when trying to play back. The other doesn't seem to do anything...was trying this out to test mike for netmeeting (where mike is not heard) phones etc. This is a new system and there have been many problems with win98 setup (an updated version) inc. misreporting of file size, constant corruption of files, reg errors, crosslinking etc. That windows has gotta go...right now I just want to find out if the mike will work on this sys.....any tips would be greatly appriciated. Thanks. Katie

check the sound icon on the taskbar check if the michrphone mixer is installed or if it is muted if your whole sound card doesn't work try going to startmenu/settings/controlpanel/system/devicemanager/sound,video,gamecontrolers select the sound card click properties,resources their could be a conflict with the sound card

Hi, I lost my sound recorder with the win98 upgrade. I had to delete my soundblaster device go out to http://www.sblive.com and get the latest soundblaster drivers and reinstall...now it works fine! Hope this helps
