On my desktop machine, I can record whatever audio is being processed
by
selecting the Recording properties from the volume program located in
the bottom right tray.

On my laptop, which is a Compact Presario 2010US, I do not have that
feature.
I sometimes want to record what's going on in Realaudio and so on with
my
recording program (Soundforge), so how do I fix this?

Thanks.

You could install a software product that inserts an
audio "driver" whose only job is to capture the bit-
stream (and then pass it along through the remainder
of the normal chain). One such product is "Total
Recorder" from www.highcriteria.com $12
recommended

Thanks.

Can I just install some of the software that came with my
SB Live card? There is some interesting stuff there. Of course
the drivers I won't install because my laptop isn't using a Live
card, but the Desktop is and that must be why it records Wave.
