cannot overdub

Hello to all!

I am hoping you can help me with my problem. I have a Dell 8935 and I am running Windows 10. The audacity program I have loaded is 2.3.3

I cannot overdub anything over my initial track. The program will freeze and it will shut down.

Here is what I have done to this point.

I brought it to a computer tek and he

Ran complete diagnostics of the system, everything is fine.
updated all drivers pertaining to sound
privacy in settings: microphone is enabled.
I have ran it with the anti virus off

Is there a compatability issue with windows 10 and this version of audacity. I have no problems running my wifes computer in windows 7.

Can Anyone point the direction I need to take, or offer any suggestions.

ANy help is greatly appreciated and very welcome!!!!
