All you have to do is:</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/01/15/how-to-enable-wave-out-recording-in-vista/"><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Select sound from the control panel.</LI>
