I may be misunderstanding, but "Sound Recorder" is standard on all Windows
at least since Win95.  It is under "Accessories"==>"Multimedia"==>"Sound
Recorder."  If your sound recorder is not set up, then you should be able to
download the correct drivers from online.  I would have to ask my tech to
know exactly which site.  I have no idea whether Windows sound recorder can
compress files, but I know there is other free software that could compress
depending upon what type of file you are wanting.

Good luck,
