I replied to your questions on 313, but will reply here again in case anyone
else is having the same problems..

you can either set your windows sound mixer to record your wave output, or,
with a card that routable I/O, you can route an out to an in on the cards
mixer and then record with cool edit or whatever.

Reaktor can be installled as VST (for fx) or VSTi (for instruments).
Kontakt is a VSTi.  ableton live does not yet support VSTi.

hope this helps
