GuyPaddick Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Hi, I recently installed Windows 7 onto my computer, which is a brand new computer. I make lots of videos on YouTube for a game i play, and I need Stereo Mix to record the game audio. This worked fine on my old laptop but now i don't seem to have it at all on this new computer. Yes i have tried showing disabled and disconnected devices but it still didn't show. I had a good look through the internet and was told i need to update my drivers, or get an XP version my the audio driver, for Stereo Mix to be available, can somebody run me through this? My motherboard is a GIGABYTE H81M-D2V, i went on the website to try and find the XP drivers for motherboard but the only operating system drivers they seemed to have were variations of windows 7 and windows 8, along with Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 64bit and Windows Server 2012 64bit. I have no clue now how i would go about finding the correct driver for my motherboard, that definitely supports Stereo Mix, and also how i would go about installing it. Can anybody lend me some help and a very thorough tutorial on how i would go about doing this? Thank you very much. P.S This is a link to my motherboard on the manufacturers website. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4668#dl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I don't understand why you want to install XP drivers on to a Win 7 machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 I do not quite understand how somebody can give you the "advice" to install a driver that doesn't even exist... What is your current driver for your audio device? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyPaddick Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 NVIDIA High Definition Audio, i believe it is built in with the graphics card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyPaddick Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 So any help as to how i can get Stereo Mix working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 We still don't know your driver version. Also, what exactly means "not working"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyPaddick Posted February 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Well usually there is an option to turn it on to use it, it seems it is not available at all on my computer. If you right click on the Sound button in your bottom right of you screen, and press recording devices, it should show up, if not, right click again and ensure that "Show disabled devices" and "Show disconnected devices" are there. Stereo Mix should appear, but it doesn't for me, i am not sure why, and curious as to how i could resolve this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
