Hi,

I am trying to use Windows Movie Maker to convert analog cassettes to .mp3
format. I have WindowsXP, and I need to have the "line in" option enabled in
"Sounds & Audio Devices", under the audio tab. The only option I have is my
default sound card...a SoundMax Digital Audio. Can you please tell me how to
enable the "line in" option? Thanks in advance.

Line In options is a "feature" of the sound / audio card. Check in
the SoundMax "Control Panel" icon.

Not really a "Windows XP General" question. More of a "How do i use the
SoundMax Digital Audio Device I have?" query. ;-)

Have you tried using the SoundMax software?

Correctly configured, SoundMax sets up all the inputs and outputs
your hardware allows -- but it does not necessarily display them
all simultaneously. You need to look for a / Properties submenu
(perhaps / Advanced Properties) so as to make your Line In active.
(NB: using SoundMax under Win98 and WinXP, I found neither
installation identified correctly all the various inputs (about 8):
but they were all present, and could be made active or muted,
however labeled.)
