I bought a Labtec desktop microphone on ebay and plugged it into my sound
card, which is either a "C-Media PCI Audio Legacy Device" or a "CMI8738/C3DX
PCI Audio Device" -- both are listed in my systems, and I don't know which
one is the real one. The audio card already has functioning speakers plugged
into it. The speakers aren't labtec, they're some brand I bought at the
computer store.

Anyway, when I plugged the mic and spoke into it, the sound registered in
the speakers. But when I tried to record a test, first using audio recorder,
then using the program that came with my webcam, then using Windows Media
player, in all cases, it acted as though it recorded, but upon playback
there was silence. What could be wrong?
