How to feed PC music into the Microphone

While voice chatting on yahoo or talking over mobile using bluetooth voice gateway friends request me to let them hear the song I am hearing. I used to place the microphone close to the speaker so that, they can hear. But this is so uncomfortable and awesome specially when using a headphone. I looked for a smarter solution & I found. Here I show (Windows only)-

1.  On the taskbar’s right corner (System tray) right click on the Volume Icon.

2. Click on Open Volume Control menu item.

3. A window titled ‘Front Speaker’ appears. From the munubar choose Options>Properties

4. In the ‘Properties’ window choose Adjust Volume for (Group box) Recording (radio button).

5.  Chek ‘Stereo Mixer’ and ‘Mic’ and uncheck everything else and click OK.

6. A window with two sets of widgets seperated by a vertical line appears one titled Stereo Mixer & another titled Mic. Check Select of Stereo Mixer.

To ensure that the setup is working, play your favourite music on your favourite player and open up Sound Recorder (Start>All Programs>Accessories>Entertainment>Sound Recorder) and start recording.
