the nature of my problem, however, is a bit different in that I do get sound but can't record audio at the latency I want it at (~10 ms). I had been able to do this using asio4all with an older computer, but now I'm a bit bummed out about having to resort to direct sound just to see activity in my mic levels.

I had tried using the line-in instead to no avail. Additionally, I've found problems with WDM kernel streaming not working at all. My guess is the soundcard but seeing as how this thread showed others who're running Reaper on a computer with a Realtek card, I thought I should ask. Thanks.
Yes,- buy a soundcard with decent asio drivers. There are lots of cheaper options available now including the EMU range and ESI and others. It might even be worth scouring ebay.

Kind regards
