Hi Big Jim ~ As you can tell, I am "technologically challenged". Grin. I thought 7 was merely something that made Vista work better...so it has actually replaced it. OK.

I have Audacity 1.2.6, which still seems to work fine, for the little I know how to do: record guitar and voice together w/ a Behringer condenser mic straight into the computer, one time through. The computer person thinks (now) that something(someone) got in during an authorized Microsoft upgrade...and this (somehow) resulted in pieces of Media Player departing. What do you use instead of Media Player?

Thank you again. It's very nice of you to take the time. Kate
