on Skype. I can see the video, I can hear the kids, but they can't hear me.
Any suggestions?
Here are a few things you can try...
Be sure that you are configured to show your microphone and that it is enabled by following the steps below:
1. Open control panel
2. Open the Sound control panel
3. Go to the Recording tab
4. Right click anywhere in the blank white area of the window to display the show disabled devices context menu
5. Click on "Show disabled devices" (See below)
6. Once your microphone is visible, right click on it and be if not already ticked, click on "Enable" - this should get your microphone working.
Once you have completed the above steps you can test your microphone under the Vista operating system using the sound recorder. This involves the following steps (borrowed from Microsoft Help):
1. Make sure you have an audio input device, such as a microphone, connected to your computer.
2. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, and then click Sound Recorder.
3. Click Start Recording.
4. To stop recording audio, click Stop Recording.
5. (Optional) If you want to continue recording audio, click Cancel. In the Save As dialog box, click Resume Recording, continue to record sound, and then click Stop Recording.
6. Click the File name box, type a file name for the recorded sound, and then click Save to save the recorded sound as an audio file.
