I imagine he followed the instructions in the previous post.

maybe not
lots of folks post that something else fixed their problem
after they got clues from the replies

There is a saying "If at first you don't succeed, RTFM"

All I did was to listen to the question, then suggest a safe starting point and indicate to the user the appropriate part of the documentation.
It can be useful to other users when, as in this case, there is a resolution to a problem at the end of the topic.

Still having problems getting Audacity to recognize the usb input

1) Plug in the USB interface and reboot the computer.
2) click "Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound" (if you're using "Classic View" there's a direct link to "Sound" in the Control Panel), then click on the "Recording" tab.
3) Check that the USB device is enabled as a Recording device as indicated here (scroll down to the picture below the blue text box) http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer ... trol_Panel

If this was not the solution that worked for wgdefoore, then hopefully he will come back and clarify what did work, but unless/until wgdefoore does so, let's just assume that the official Audacity documentation is correct.
