    This solution of activating Stereo Mix works in Vista, but it simply doesn’t work in Windows 7. Period. I have searched and searched the web for a solution to system recording for Windows 7, but to date found no viable solution. If anybody has really solved the Stereo Mix issue with Windows 7, please enlighten.
