VirtualDub can't record audio, no inputs/sources showing up

I'm using VirtualDub version 1.9.11 to screen capture video game play on my computer. It works amazing for video; however, I can't get my audio to record.

My motherboard is a Gigabyte ga-z77x-ud5h. And I have downloaded the latest audio drivers and even tried older drivers.

enter image description here Here is what my inputs look like, none...

enter image description here And here are what my sources look like, none...

Any clues on why I have no sources and no inputs? If I plug in a microphone I can get mic input, but that's it.

Solution

  • Solved. Had to enable Stereo mix which was disabled by defualt... why on earth would Windows 7 disable that by default is beyond me.
