Hi Stuart,
here is my interpretation of the problem:
usually when I record something with CE and the recorded file is
"empty", I have chosen the record input incorrectly. So I check the
Volume controls -> properties -> recording. If the correct input is
not chosen, CE records silence. You can save this file and play back,
but there is no audio signal in there.
Maybe with installing XP the default settings of sound card changed.
Saving the file is other thing, I suppose. I normally use "Save
as...", to be sure of destination and format of a file.
All the best,
Veljo
