Most non-technical people I know get confused by those things continually. "The bit next to the clock at the bottom-right. Ok, can you see an audio icon? No, right, can you see a less-than sign on a button a bit to the left of there? A less-than sign? Right, it's like a little left-arrow somewhere near the clock. Click that. Can you see the audio icon now? Ok, double-click it. Oh, there's no microphone level there? Hmm. Go to Options -> Properties. That's in the menu. The thing at the top of the audio window. Then click on Recording and click on OK. No, I don't know whether it's line in or microphone, just try twiddling both."
