I know this sounds like a stupid question, but is there a way to not use the
video and only the sound from a captured video? I'd like to combine the audio
track from one video clip and the video from another video clip into the same
movie. Make sense?

I use freeware Audacity or WavePad to record with the What You Hear option.
Open the audio software and something - e.g. Movie Maker - to play your file.
Start recording, then start playing your file. At the end you'll have a WAV
file with a few seconds of silence followed by the audio from your file.

There should be a simpler way, and MS claims that there is. In KB article
314575, it is stated that you can use MM to "record [capture] video only,
audio only, or both video and audio". That would be convenient if true.
Unfortunately my MM [version 2.1.4026.0] never displays the Record dialog
shown in the article. All I get is a Video Capture Wizard with choices more
limited than what's shown in the article.

If you are using movie maker, just drop the video file on the audio/music
track, it automatically becomes audio only. This also works with some other
apps.
