I wouldn't fiddle with the fader as some cards use the same setting for 
playback and record level.  But you should be able to mute it just fine by 
checking the mute checkbox for the line in.

I guess it's a good thing I don't have cheap sound card.  That's
good
to know though :).

following up,

I was able to use the slider and the mute without affecting the input.

You have a sound card??? This Dell box just uses SoundMax Digital Audio, 
no card. It keeps the machine cheap, but it works fine. Who knows, maybe 
it's better. Funny thing is that the audio device is listed as PCI, but I 
suppose the jacks have to hop on that bus to get to the CPU. No matter, 
not really relevant to the list.

Thanks again,
Tom
