would be wierd if it was the soundcard as well, i have a piiiieeeccceee of shit card, and if you don't count the fucking amount of background noise, it works weel at recording.
Sounds like a driver issue to me. look for any updated drivers, if not u need a better sound card or recorder box. realtek ac97 cards suck major balls from my experience, especially for recording.

if you are going to spend more money
Although I've had friends successfully record to their computers almost always they say they have to tinker with their PC one time or another to get it to work.
If ultimately you can't get it to work without spending money on new gear....consider a set top CD recorder.
I've had a Marantz CD recorder with XLR inputs and RCA's in the back and it works great.
You can even insert tracks during the mix by pressing the "insert track button" so it's transition wait for the break "insert track" find the next record.
When I'm done I have a studio quality finished recording with tracks to either start making copies from or ripping audio into my computer using the CD-ROM drive.
Works for me and I never have to worry about drivers and or software f'ing up.
