Using Your Computer with Your Stereo System

Sending Output to a Stereo System

Your computer can be connected to your stereo system for games or multimedia applications. Connect the line output from the audio card to any unused line-level input connector on the stereo system. Use a cable that has a 3.5mm stereo plug on one end and two RCA plugs on the other end. (You can buy such a cable at most consumer electronics stores.)

When your computer and your stereo system are connected, the volume levels can be adjusted with either the computer keyboard Volume knob or the stereo volume control.

Making Audio Recordings to a File

You can make recordings on your computer using either the Microsoft Sound Recorder Applet or the Media Rack wave recorder. In either case:

1Select the sound source. For computer- generated sounds, select Line Out as the source. For stereo-generated sounds, connect the Line Out of the stereo system to the Line In of the computer and select Line In as

the source.
