Unable to adjust sound on the computer using Control Panel and unable to use Sound Recorder app

Q

I have win 8.0 but I cannot use any sound recording device or app. I checked the sound adj in control panel and discovered there is no selection for mono or stereo under recording. This prevents me from using a sound recording app or even the built in win8 sound recorder. How can I correct this?
