Windows 7 - Audacity - Unable to record

[tomharrish]

Since I have started using Windows 7 I can no longer record radio shows, etc from my PC using Audacity, (or anything else for that matter!)

Previously this was a simple matter of opening Audacity, making sure the correct input was being used and pressing the record button.

When I right click the speaker icon in the taskbar and open "Recording Devices" I see two Microphones and one CD Audio, nothing else.

I have read, elsewhere, conflicting reports about Microsoft bowing to pressure and making direct recording no longer possible. Is this the problem or is it something else?

Audacity is my application of choice for recording and editing and I would like to stick with it if I can.

Any advice/ideas/comments?
