[RESOLVED] Problem recording internet radio

[broadley]

I've been using Audiograbber 1.83 on my old desktop PC to record an internet radio show for listening to later on or burning to a CD to play in my car. I've just got a new Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop which plays internet radio and CDs fine, but when I try to record radio streams it doesn't work. It produces a file which doesn't give any sound. I tried downloading the original Audiograbber software from my old PC, thinking "If it works on that PC it should work on the new one", but it didn't.

I tried using Audacity, but found it too unfriendly to use (I'm new to recording audio on a PC, and in any case I don't need its features). In both cases there were no sound levels showing. I don't know if this is some sort of configuration problem, or maybe I'm missing something obvious.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
