Cannot find built in microphone on laptop HP Compac no 6120

make sure have installed the drivers for microphone http://www.driverscape.com/manufacturers/acer/laptops-desktops/aspire-5315/619

Hi Darlene Pratt,

Let me know if the internal microphone works fine while not on Google chat. Do send me a picture of Sound icon and then I can check and see what can be done.
To access Sound icon you may follow the below steps:

(1)Right click on Speaker icon on the status bar.
(2)Select Recording devices.
(3)Now send me a picture of this screen.

Thanks and Regards.
Kiran Kumar.

Hi,

Analysis- The call can gear very well - indicates that the speakers / head phones are working fine and the audio drivers are working well
The called person doesnt hear any thing - it indicates that the caller is not able to transmit sound. This can be a microphone related issue. It can also be skype settings issue.

Please answer following questions to analyze the issue better

1. has this ever worked before?
2. Have you tried using the microphone for some other application like recording some audio?
3. Have you tried audio / video calls using some other chat program like gtalk?
4. Are u using any external microphone attached to a head set or is it the laptops inbuilt microphone?

You should have an application called Acer Crystal Eye on your system for the built-in WebCam. Check the Programs list under the Start window for Acer Crystal Eye. This should turn on the camera.
For the microphone click Start>Control Panel>Sound>Recording to see if the microphone is being detected. If it is, click on the Microphone icon and turn the microphone on.
Let me know if you need a driver or have any other questions. Thanks.

Desktop pc's never usually have a built in Microphone.

try re-installing the driver.

it's a bit complicated, but if you could figure out what kind of microphone you have i could get it for you.

right now try googling your computer make and model, plus "microphone driver"
it should come up with a link to download something, then install that if it looks trustworthy enough.

First go the system preferences and then sound and then click on the input and ensure that the built-in microphone is selected and check the volume is set to whatever you need.

In google chat go to options and then down to chat settings. You can then go to microphone under Voice and video chat and under microphone select either default device or built-in microphone. You can then verify your settings.

Hope this helps.

If they can hear your breathing that means that you are not speaking in to the microphone, do a microphone test on the computer and see if you hear your own voice. If you don't the program that your using is set to use wrong sound input and the settings will have to be changed.

What program do you use to speak with others?

are you sure that you microphone is working properly?

if yes then there must maybe some problems with your microphone port in your pc..

but try this though :

in the volume control menu ensure that the microphone is not set to mute

what else u can try is u can try the mic with the other port and still if it doesnt work,the other person is still not able to hear then try and do the voice chat with some one else and if the other person on the different chat will be able to hear u then definately the prob is with the other person's computer it is not with ur computer.
