Ive searched google and this forum and have found no solid answer for my frustrating problem.
In previous OS I've pluged in my mic and go 'test test' and I would hear myself, in real time, through the speakers.
Vista does not do this apparetnly/
To make matters worse, the mic will not feed through the stereo mix (because it wont come through the speakers?).
I definetly have all this enabled, all hidden things revealed. I've rolled back teh drivers for the sound card, updated them, updated them again, shut down, restarted, tried a million different settings and STILL no mic for stereo mix or speakers.
I can see the green bars going when I speak, and it works in programs like skype.
But this stereo mix is a big problem. I similcast an internet radio and TV show. In order to broadcast the audio from the music videos I play on the TV show over the Shoutcast radio server, I need stereo mix. However, I also need full use of my mic because a tv and radio show without a mic is pretty boring.
Has ANYONE found a solution to this problem or should I just downgrade to XP, which runs my audio settings without hassle.
I have Vista home premium 32bit on a toshiba laptop with a realtek high def audio soundcard. I am trying to use front jack mic but there is also a built in mic.

A little tedious but it gets the job done. Good thing I don't need to do this very often!
