Very soft micro after installing Windows 7

Hello

I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and was unaware of any problem with the sound on my laptop when running on OS Vista professional. I now use Windows 7 Home edition, and that's when I noticed that my microphone has become very soft. When you try to Skype or record sounds, nothing is saved. I get comments if I push the mic, but not much else unless I shout at point-blank range. The drivers are up to date; I have already run the troubleshooting and no problems were found. No error messages or audio playback problems, just the microphone. I use a built-in microphone (the web cam next to it also works very well) and I have a Toshiba Satellite.

I noticed that other people have had the same problems, this could be a bug on windows 7?

Hello

I suggest you follow the methods and check them off below.
Method 1: Increase the volume level
1. click on start
2. tap sound in the start search box
3. Select the sound.
4. Select the recording tab
5. Select microphone
6. Select Properties
7. under properties of the microphone, select listen.
8. increase the volume level.
 
Method 2: Uninstall and reinstall the sound drivers.
1. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click System and Maintenance, and then click Device Manager.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
2. in the list, look for the audio device, right-click the device, and then click Properties.
3. click Driver tab and click on uninstall, and then click OK.
4 restart the computer.
5. now download and install audio drivers from the manufacturers Web site.
