I have a realtek audio hd sound card. Works fine, except that the stereo mix is greyed out. Loads of other people have problems similar, and i have all the up to date drivers.

Now their is a driver missing on my device manger, called windows audio bus. Im not even sure if i have this on my computer because xp hasn't re installed it at any point during boot up etc.

Now could these problems be related, and is their anyway to solve the stereo mix function.

THank you.

Did you just reinstall xp? and if so, what service pack?

SP3.

I will also mention that all audio works fine, its just i can't record/ even change stereo settings :p

The Windows Audio Bus is the high definition bus driver needed for your Realtek.

The UAA bus driver and

net framework 2.0 should be installed for your audio first, then your sound drivers for Sp3.

Ok just installed that, went fine, but steroe mix is still greyed out. Is this just somthing my card isn't compatable with.

Typically when something is greyed out, it is a driver issue (typically corrupt or incorrect drivers) or an item not supported by hardware.
