I just got a brand new Dell Laptop and installed a software for recording with an external microphone. I installed the latest driver designed for Win 8. I connected the hardware and microphone to the laptop as instructed. Everything on that side is done according to installation procedure.
When I double click the software shortcut it fails to launch. I try to launch it as an administrator, it does not work. I double click the main "***.exe" file in the Programs folder, but nothing happens. I rebooted the puter and tried it a few times, nothing works.
The software is up to date and the puter is brand new. What could be wrong?
I have a feeling that "MAXX Audio 4 Sound Manager" that is pre-installed on the laptop may be preventing that software from launching. Could this be the problem? If so, how can I bypass it and get the darn software to launch?
Is it possible to temporarily disable "MAXX Audio 4 Sound Manager"?
