If you have WIN95 or 98, it has a "Sound Recorder" that will record or play wav files. You could use either the mic or line input on your audio card. The mic is a "mono" input and the line is normally a "stereo" input. Just make a cable (or get an adapter) with a minature plug on one end that will plug into the sound card.

There's other ways and software to record, but the sound recorder is the simplest way to do it.

The problem with Windows Sound Recorder is that it has a time limit. Unless they have changed it lately, you can only record a minute at a time. I believe it shuts off after 60 seconds. There are several inexpensive software sound recorders that work just fine.

Windows sound recorder does stop after 60sec., but if you save and push record again, soundrecorder will append to the end of the previously saved file as many times as you need i guess...Wav's do get kinda large tho..
