Chris - My webcam with it's built in mic is on the top of the screen, your 
mic might be in a similar place,  have a feel of the top edge of the screen, 
just left of centre -

| Hi all, I've just discovered, purely by recording a test using the just
| installed Goldwave, that I have a built in microphone on my Vista
| machine, or it appears I have anyway as I could certainly hear my own
| recording. In my copy of Goldwave I couldn't see a stereo mix or
| whatever check box either, however it seems to work fine using the
| defaults. I need to look more into this. Hope this helps for now.
