If you have a smartphone or tablet, get an app called "TuneIn". It allows you to listen to any internet radio stream, and will allow you to record that stream to your device for listening later. I think it records in mp3 format, so with Android and jailbroken iPhones, you could transfer the recordings to a computer or mp3 player, but I would just listen directly from the device.

I listen to Rush on KSCO and KXNT on TuneIn.

Have you reinstalled the audio drivers?
Are any codecs missing?
Microsoft and Fraunhoffer got into a tiff and Win7 “officially” cannot rip any cd’s to mp3 because the codec Fraunhoffer II S is not allowed.
[There are ways around it, obviously. Fail hard Microsoft, fail hard.]

Make certain the drivers and codecs are present.

I use Audacity. Records anything your computer is running or anything your listening to. Free. Then you can export to MP3.

Try plugging it into the other ‘hole’. Some computers have a Line-in next to the regular audio port.

If that doesn’t work, try reinstalling the drivers.

This assumes you have done a full restart.

If you can get your internet station on Shoutcast, use Winamp with the Streamripper plugin and you will have no need of microphones.

Check your device manger ( win 7 );

See if any devices have a yellow exclamation point next to them, especially audio. May have to go to the manufacturer’s website to download the correct driver or codecs. Windows update doesn't do everything.

You may simply have to adjust the volume control on one of the devices. There should be an audio system “mixer” that can be found from the Windows “control panel” that lets you adjust the volumes.

This may sound rather trivial, but did you go to the sound mixer in windows and make sure that the line input is turned on and the volume turned up? You can find the sound mixer in the windows start bar, not far from the clock. You may need to look in the file menus of the sound mixer to switch to the recording controls.

1. Find the audio settings folder and look at what devices are selected for line in. There may be a windows default that may not match and utilize your hardware.

2. You might have to install the drivers. You usually have to manually install your hardware specific drivers when you reinstall the OS. The drivers disk is typically on a separate disk or you can visit the computer vendor website and download and then install them.

Good luck!
