Well you might've done this already, but have you made sure it is your microphone that is selected in the Skype Audio settings page? If you're using a USB mic then it should show up as an Audio device along with your computer's soundcard.

I've updated my sound drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled them, done the same with skype, can't figure it out. As I say, msn works. Apart from what other applications I have installed, the only ones that are specifically related to recording issues, are, Gold Wave, and total recorder. I have things like winamp, media player, but they shouldn't play any part in this. Any other ideas? Terry
