Probably the mic gets muted. You might want to check in your volume control if that is the case. Try a Skype test call. Noticed a similar thing on my XP machine, so I've created a hotkey to launch volume control so I can unmute the mic.

Hi folks! Well, this is about the craziest thing I've ever seen, since using a computer. I just installed skype, and was trying to use the program, but I ran into trouble. It would not pick up my microphone. And now, even though I have uninstalled the skype program, I still do not hear my mic through my speakers, or anything else I try to play through my line in jack on the back of my sound card. I post this to the list, because I know several of you use skype. So as not to cram the list full of unwanted e-mail, please e-mail me privately if you've ever had this problem before, or know of a solution. Thanks very much!
