I've read all over on the internet but none of the solutions help me. I use Stereo Mix to send sounds over MSN using the record button as well as using the mic. The mic works fine in 7 and stereo mix used to work in windowsxp and vista but now in windows 7 on the same machine (Acer 4420 notebook) there is no stereo mix. I go into the sound control panel then right click and say
Show disabled devices
Show disconnected devices
and all that shows up is the monitor microphone, the microphone sound card jack and line-in. I need Stereo Mix to work in Windows 7.
I've written for help on the microsoft answers board twice now and they ignored me, I've asked on yahoo answers, they ignored me. I even wrote to realtek and they have ignored me as well twice now, I will be contacting the better business bureau to complain about customer service if I cannot reach a solution. I have been trying to find a solution for a month now!

HI , to all my friends here is the answer to streo mix ,just download the DriverMax and then update the realtek high definatin audio drive restart and u will see streo mix in recording device make sure u hv chek the "Show Disabled devices and Show Disconnected devices there u go enjoy streo mix in ur laptop :)))) its really works make sure when u go to streo mix properties check the box " Listern to this device" then in play back device slect Speakers /High Defination Audio
then click OK .... then in microphone go in properties( dont chek the box " listern to this device ") and then in Playback through this device select ( Default playback device )
I dont know how to mess with drivers and such tech stuff. I'm just one of those poor fools that buys something and expects it to work as claimed by the vendor. I should have known better. I should have known that both microsoft , toshiba etc a just theiving Bxxxxxxxds who's only concern is their bottom line, not customer satisfaction.
