By default, Windows Sound Recorder is limited to recording a maximum of 60 seconds, but if Windows Sound Recorder works, then we can most likely help you to get Audacity working. If Windows Sound Recorder does not work, then the problem is not with Audacity, but with your computer sound system.
If the problem is with the computer sound system, check your cables, check that the sound card is installed correctly, check the Windows Mixer.
