It allowed me to record what I was hearing in my speakers/headphones. A year and a half ago, I purchased a dell XPS 410 computer that has Windows Vista 32-Bit installed. Now, I am unable to find What you Hear in the Sound section in the control panel. I clicked "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices", but still could not find What You Hear. Can anyone help me find this, or provide another method of recording exactly what I hear in my speakers/headphones? Thank you very much. Here are my computer specs (if needed): Processor: Intel® Core™2 CPU 6420 @ 2.13GHz 2.13 GHz 2GB RAM SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC ATI Radeon X1300/1550 Series Windows Vista 32-Bit
