I'm assuming this is first time you've tried using a mic on your computer? If so, double click the little speaker icon down by clock...This will bring up your volume control box..At top left click on options>properties..this will bring up a smaller box..in this box make sure there is a checkmark by Mic in both record and playback

You could try what the previous user mentioned, but a better way is this go here:\n\nStart -> Programs -> Accessories -> Entertainment -> Sound Recorder. Just press the RED button, start talking into the mic, hit stop. Then play what you just recorded. Works like a charm.

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.

In the bottom right hand corner of your desktop screen (near the time) you should see a little speaker looking image. Double left click it. That'll bring up some audio settings. Go up to Options then click on Properties. At the bottom, screen down and make sure "Microphone" is checked. Click OK. Now you should see the microphone settings on your volume settings. The Microphone slider should be in the middle (keep it there or move it up). Also, make sure mute is unchecked. That's usually the thing that's wrong with mics.\n\nTo test your mic, go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Entertainment -> Sound Recorder. Click on the little red button and speak into the mic.\n\nAlso, make sure your green plug is plugged into the green input on your pc, and the red is plugged into the red.

The talk feature is located within the "call" button. Just push that and wait for the other person to accept (just like you would have with the old yahoo voice system)

in your chat sftware you must have some options to configure the audio input device. in some there is am oprion to select wav file or something like this. the other way is i find software whitch will redirect your audio otput directly to the mic chanel. and the last option is to make a cable connection between audio output and the mic input.

Click on Start......All Programs.......Accessories.....Entertainment and finally click on Volume Control. Inside Volume control, click on Options.......select Properties and tick the box infront of Microphone and press OK. Then click on Options again, click on Advanced Controls and see whether the small box in microphone section has a tick or not. If there's a tick then remove it by clicking on it. Close the window and follow the above steps again upto Entertainment and click on Sound Recorder and click on the black dot icon on the right side.

Use an older version of Y! messenger. And if you want to use voice chat so badly then try Skype (www.skype.com) or Google talk (talk.google.com).

Go to Control Panel then to the sound section. Mess around with it. Also look in the same section and make sure your mic isn't on mute.
