    Recording Sounds from Your Speakers

    Is there an option in Windows that lets you record what is coming out of your speakers, so the noise being recorded is the same as the noise being produced?

    There's probably a quicker way of doing this, but:

    open Sound Recorder (the windows jobbie)
    Go to edit, and open audio properties.
    click Volume under the recording part
    This will open a traditional audio volume thing (ala win 95/98/2000, rather than the posh nvidia things, etc)
    You can select which input you want to record from via the tick box.

    The option you want will most likely be called either "wave", "mixer" or something similar, but I'm sure you can figure that out.

    Just found out that the limit on recording is a minute. Is there any way of extending this, or otherwise is there any software that will let me record longer sound?

    http://audacity.sourceforge.net

    In sound recorder, there is a way of extending the recording time, by clicking record again after the initial 60 seconds, and again after the next 60 seconds. This just adds an extra 60 seconds to the end each time. However, Audacity is a pretty good FREE bit of software.
