My microphone does not work. Used also before my laptop crashed and it had to be fixed.

Well, it camed back on me and now I can not Skype. I tried to find a new driver to download and I can't find one. I bought my laptop computer. I don't know what the specific production. Help, please. Its a Vista system. I tried to read 3 different sites 'how to' and none of them work because I don't know where to go to find a driver update. I can't find an update of the Audio/Sound driver on Microsoft.com, Windows.com or intel.com.

Hi LWmom,

1. are you able to hear sounds on other Windows applications and system?

2. What is the brand and model number of the card its installed on the computer?

If the sound does not only work on Skype then I suggest you to post your query in the Forums of Skype.

Try the steps from the following link:

No sound in Windows

If the steps in the above mentioned article fails, then, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the sound card for drivers.

I hope this helps.

    I tried:

    -restart my phone

    -hard reset and blink? Reset with the power and the "home" button.

    -read the micro support page. Still no solution.

    TL; Dr:

    Hello Bllacke,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see from your post, some applications have a problem to access your Microphone. I know how it is important to ensure that your applications have access to the Microphone and can use this feature. I have a few things I want to try.

    First, tap Settings on your iPhone and then scroll to the last section that lists your apps. Select the applications that use the microphone and make sure that the Microphone is activated (green).

    Then, follow the steps in the article below to close these applications:

    Force a nearby application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    Then, test the microphone in these applications again and see if it works.

    Best regards.

  • Satellite A210 (PSAEG) - Microphone does not work on Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello, the microphone does not work on windows 7 64-bit, the driver that I use is 64-bit Windows Vsta. The volume is implemented maximum and so is the amplification but no way to make it work with the software assistant camera Skype or toshiba.
    Can someone help me?

    Thank you

    Hi Largo09,

    Usually, you need to install the webcam driver and sound to get the microphone working. The microphone is a part of webcam

    As you wrote, Satellite A210 is not Windows 7 64 bit supported, so the only option you have the Vista 64 bit drivers

    In my opinion, you should check if the Microphone is turned on in Windows audio settings. There you can also activate the Microphone Amplifier, which can increase the volume of the microphone.

  • Satellite L300-1 has 3 - Microphone does not work with Windows 7

    Hello, I have a problem with the microphone on my laptop.

    MIC comes with chicony web cam and Windows 7 camera works fine but the microphone does not work.
    Does anyone have the solution to this problem?

    Micro Vista works fine but I wanted to try Windows 7 on the laptop and everything works great except microphone.

    Best wishes in advance.

    Hello

    I think that the reason why Windows 7 is only RC and not a final version that is on the market. I think you should wait until Windows 7's official published.

    However, you have installed the driver for the webcam and soundcard? You can try using the Vista drivers. It should also work on Windows 7.

  • microphone does not work hp dv6000

    Hey guys,.

    I have hp dv6000 laptop. The microphone is integrated and it doesn't work. It says that the driver is installed correctly but it is obviously not.

    What should I do?

    Thank you

    Hi yassena,

    Thank you for using Microsoft Windows forum.

    I suggest you all to first download and install Windows 7 driver compatibility.  Check your drivers in the Windows 7 Compatibility Center: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/default.aspx to check if your audio drivers for hp dv6000 are compatible.

    The drivers for your hp dv6000 seem not to be compatible with Windows 7 and this is why I suggest you to download the Windows Vista Compatible drivers from: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=2093&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=1842155 and running Windows Vista compatibility mode.

    You can also try to adjust the default microphone and check under the sounds in the recording tab.

    It seems that the microphone is not properly configured on your computer. You can try to solve the problems more microphone/line-in following the steps, in order, to test, check the connections and the hardware, update the audio drivers and configure the audio settings of Windows. If you follow these steps in the correct order, you will fix the problem or you will find that the audio software must be configured or updated.

    Step 1: Test of an audio signal

    1. click on start, then Control Panel.
    2. click on hardware and sound and then click on manage audio devices...
    3. click on the recording tab.
    4. to test the microphone, speak into it. To test the line, send a signal to the line at the port of devices audio source (press play on the audio player). Look at the gray bars next to the name of the device under the recording tab:
    * If the gray bars next to the device name turns green, this device is active and an audio signal is passed through the microphone or line-in port. This step shows that this problem is related to sound parameters in the software that uses the microphone. If you have not already done so, set the device selected by default and adjust levels. Once the device is set by default and levels are defined, use and adjust the sound recording or voice carrying software.
    * If the gray bars remain inactive and grey, the device does not have a signal. Leave the record open tab and go to the next step.

    Step 2: Check the volume levels and mute

    The volume of the speaker to the microphone and line - in may be activated or rejected. Use the following steps to check the volume of speaker for line and microphone levels.

    1. click on start and then click Control Panel.
    2. click on hardware and sound.
    3. click on sound.
    4. Select speakers, and then click Properties.
    5. click on the levels tab.
    6. click the button mute Microphone and on any other line that is cut.
    7. use the slider to increase the micro level and each line at least 75.
    8. click on OK.

    Step 3: Update the audio drivers

    You can see a front-end port microphone does not work, a recording device is missing in the recording tab, a microphone is not recognized when it is plugged in, or any other problem. There may be updates audio drivers that can solve this kind of problem. Use the following steps to ensure that the audio drivers are up to date.

    1. connect to the Internet.
    2. click on start and enter the Device Manager in the start search field.
    3. click on the plus sign next to sound, video and game controllers.
    4. right click on the name of the sound material and select software update of the driver...
    5. click on search automatically for a driver updated and wait for Windows to update the driver software.
    6 Windows checks a remote Web site to see if the update of the driver software is available.
    * If an update is available, let Windows install the update.
    * If an update is not available, proceed to the next step.
    7. once the update is successfully installed, test the microphone or line like that was made in step 1. If the problem persists, proceed to the next step.

    Step 4: Configuration of Windows registry settings

    By default, Windows 7/Vista automatically activates microphones and line - in ports. Use the following steps to set the microphone/line-in port to be the default port and configure the logging levels.

    1. If the recording in the Audio window tab is not selected, open the sound and click the recording tab and make sure the State is defined as below.

    1 - port microphone - work and set as default

    2 - line In - work

    3. digital (S/PDIF port) In - work

    4 - stereo Mix (mixer software) - disabled

    1. If several microphones or line - in ports are available, select the port you want to use. Click on set as default to make this device default audio input device.
    2. If the device you want to use contains a small circle with an arrow pointing down, the device is disabled. To activate the device, right-click the device name, and then select activate.
    3. once the selected device, click Properties, and then click the levels tab.
    4. adjust the slider up to 75% of its range.
    5. If the mute is enabled, click the button mute to reactivate the device. The mute button should show as a blue speaker without any red circle.
    6. If the Microphone Boost is available, adjust and + 20.0 dB.
    7. click OK to make the changes.
    8. test the microphone as was done in step 1 to determine if Windows is able to detect a signal from the microphone or line used. If you have completed all the steps and the microphone or the source device still does not work, the audio ports or the computer's sound hardware can be bad.
