You posted in a forum that doesn’t tell us anything about you. Win7? Vista? Laptop?
Newer Windows machines may not give you the tools to record internet audio. They’re business machines intended for the corporate user. Did you go through our instructions?

Its a desktop…about 5-7 years old and i do have windows 7 and i did follow the guide it didnt help any…could there be something wrong with my speakers? or something
Topic moved to the Windows forum.
You probably do not have a valid recording device enabled.
See here for how to enable “Stereo Mix”, if available, or for alternative workarounds if it is not available on your computer: Missing features - Audacity Support
I tried all of that, didnt work…im thinking theres something wrong with my speakers because when i go to see all of my devices that are on my computer…my speakers aint one of them 
That possibility is covered in the link that I posted.
