What's the best program out there to record stuff on my computer screen, such as a ROM game play video? (Preferably free)
Anyone have any recommendations?

The best one I've found is Camtasia Studio 6, which I use, but unfortunately it isn't free.

A friend of mine who's a Let's player on youtube uses one called Debut. There is a free version of that and one you can buy. You could try that one if you like but it didn't work for me.

Okay, thanks, I'll try it.
How much does Camtasia cost?

Err, $297.00 but you probably don't wanna pay that much.

Debut Video Capture Software by NCH is free and works really well.

Another (free) option is Camstudio 2.x (if DVC doesn't work out for you) which is available from various sources (2.5b1 - Binaries made of the SVN - Sourceforge SVN repository).

Debut seems like it'll work fine if I could get the sound working. I need to update some sound driver but the link for it on the realtek site seems to always be down. I'm at a bit of a loss here...

You can find drivers on other sites than the official ones, you know. Just google for it.

You could also update the driver through Device Manager.

Device Manager insists that my sound drivers are up to date, even though they're not. I bought this laptop in June and I haven't updated sound drivers in a few months and I know more updates have come out since then.

Google has been unfriendly to me since I don't know the exact name of the driver I'm looking for. Searching "realtek audio driver update" and things of the sort have not gone too well for me.

I've researched the problem and I need to find something called "stereo mix" or something similar in my recording devices list and enable it. I've tried clicking on "show disabled devices" like everyone tells me to do, but it still doesn't show.

EDIT: Oh wow. I just rechecked my recording devices and the "stereo mix" thing just decided to appear. I swear it was not there yesterday. That is seriously weird, considering I haven't actually done anything today.
Oh well, problem solved. I'm good to go.
Thanks a ton for the help everyone.
