Unable to activate native Windows (Realtek) audio devices

[StuartR]

I have installed Jamkazam on my Windows 7 laptop. I am trying to get started with the session wizard, and I am in "Audio Gear Setup."
1) The "Instructions" button goes to a broken link, so no help there.
2) I have one choice for Microphone and Speakers (the built-in stereo Realtek drivers), but when I select "Resync" I get an Alert dialog to contact support, followed quickly with another dialog  ("Invalid Audio Device") that says "It appears the audio device is not currently connected." I have tried all the listed sampling rates, but nothing works. I cannot continue in the wizard.
Please help!

You are really asking for trouble trying to use the native Windows audio drivers. As you've seen by others responses, these drivers are not designed for real-time audio processing. So even if you get this to work, I'd recommend that you invest in a hardware audio interface. You'll be glad you did.
