Record audio from computer's audio line-in?

[ar]

I could successfully play my guitar through my computer, and have the sound working in my surround sound system. The thing is, there's no way that I could record the audio on my computer itself. I've recorded the audio with Sony's Acid 4.0/5.0, but then I have to increase that volume by about 1000% so you could actually hear something.

Is there a program or something that allows me to record the audio to my computer?

Thanks :D.

Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) also works very well for doing what you requested.

yea audacity kicks butt...oh btw your volume trouble could be to do with a DI box..are you using one?

IT WORKED! Thanks :D.

I'm running my guitar through an effects pedal :D. It's kinda beating the system, and I don't have to buy any expensive equipment. So thanks, I'll try and show you all some test recordings tomorrow.
