I´m working some tracks at a friends house, and one day he tells me that suddenly he can´t record anymore. When I see the sound properties, with 'playback' being in the upper half of the window and 'recording' in the lower (you know what I´m talking about, this is basic stuff), the recording area is all grayed out, totally disabled, and can´t be accessed. Of course no recording can be made.
I think the soundcard is a SB 16 PnP.
What has happened?
What can be done?
Maybe reinstalling the soundcard?
What do you think?
Please answer! Any halp will be appreciated.

Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers certainly wouldn't hurt. Outside of that, I would look in the mixer at all the inputs and make sure they are not all muted, perhaps if they are all muted the recording greys out...I dunno, just thinkin out loud...

Oh, and welcome to HRC :-)
