Skipping while recording
Whenever I try to record something on Audacity, over a track or not, it skips horribly. The backtrack is fine when it only plays, but during recording, it jumps so the result is skippy. I know for sure it's not my computer or the CPU usage, or the mic either. The mic has always worked fine, and I highly doubt that it would just suddenly start acting up (plus it works with other applications just fine). It's not my computer because it happened on 2 computers with the same version of Audacity, and one of those is a newly reformatted computer with nothing else on it besides system programs, and none of the unnecessary programs running, and I even set the resolution to 800x600. Please help, if you can.

Wait. What jumps? The playback or the recording? Or both? Can you post a little of the damaged recording somewhere so we can listen? (the forum doesn't support sound postings)
