I am using a second-hand computer with the following configuration: Pentium 111 processor, 256 MB RAM, 40x CD ROM, with multimedia. If I use sound recorder of Windows 2000, I`m able to record only 60 seconds of my voice. Is there any way to record my voice continuously? Also, can I use my TV as computer monitor?

V. Rohit Verma

The Windows sound recorder supports only 60 seconds of recording by default. If you would like to record more than 60 seconds efficiently, you may need to use some third part sound recorder applications. The following are some freeware sound recorder applications.

If you want to use TV instead of monitor you will need to install the Display(AGP) Card with TV-Out function inside your computer.
