Audacity Forum

I'm recording from my computer. I use speakers and a headphone.

I'm trying to record and there's no waveform but just a straight line. Why can't I record - it didn't have this problem before.

My sound works fine. No problem except when I try to record with Audacity. It just gives me the error message.

There isn't a recording device listed in the audacity preferences for some reason.

For some reasdon no recording device is showing on the audacity menu. This worked a week ago so what happened? I'd really like to start using this again soon.

Yes, the sound works.

But I've been using Audacity for awhile now, and didn't have a problem.

It says no audio devices are installed.

Any suggestions?

I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9500y PC. How do I know what my sound device is?
