Beginner queries

Hello all,
This is my first post so please bear with me.
I have seen a couple of posts similar to this but the explaination that was given seemed to point to problems with Windows Vista. I am using XP so I will go ahead and ask my question.
I am trying to record myself playing my acoustic guitar so that I can upload the recording to a guitarist forum that I use. My problem is this:- the sound gets recorded but the playback is so quiet that it's almost not there. Any suggestions regarding this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I have no previous experience of using recording software so the explaination could well be a simple one. I hope so!

My set-up is not a sophisticated one. It's just my PC (Packard Bell, 3yrs old). It has a Realtek Sound Card and I am using a Labtech Mic to record with.
