Voice messenger requires a broadband connection because of the high number of signals that need to be sent out. If you use it with a dial up connection, the voice may be faded, delayed or broken. You cannot get full clarity with a dial up connection but what you can do to improve it is to close all other internet related applications when you are using voice. thats your best bet

I don't think you can anymore but why not get im with voice because it is compatable with the older yahoo messangers .

Actually, the previous answer is half right. Yahoo messenger with voice is compliant with Mac and Windows not Solaris, BSD or Linux. It's your operating system, not your browser.

Most likely you are trying to use version 7.5 BETA which is pretty buggy and useless in my opinion. Uninstall the current yahoo and download 7.0 from here..\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm

Here is the deal that I think is happening, when you are trying to log on to your IM, it might be selecting your default connection. Try and do the following thing, might work.\nOn IE, click on tools --> internet options--> Connections.\nOn the connections menu select "Never Dial a connection".\nIf that doesnot work, on the right bottom corner of the screen, there will be a little icon right click on it and select the option which probably will say something like dial on request or something like that. After you have done the settings, you will have to restart the computer to enable the settings to work. \nIf that doesnot help. Please tell me which IM software are you using. I shall try to help

Are you talking about Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger?  The best I can guess is that maybe your drivers aren't properly installed, and the computer isn't recognizing your microphone.  If you want to start conferences with your friends, try Skype.

Use Yahoo Messenger's Audio Setup Wizard, which will step you through the process of setting up your microphone. If your microphone works in the Audio Setup Wizard, but doesn't work when you're trying to talk to someone, then you have a connection problem.\n\nTwo general comments:\nI have found that MSN / Windows Messenger audio quality is usually better than Yahoo audio quality.\n\nIf you're going to be talking often, invest in a headset with headphones and a microphone. It works much better this way.

Yes.  Goto preferences > calling and audio > Open the call setup assistant > and run through the steps to set up the mic and speaker (on yahoo messenger).
