Recording Devices

Control Panel, Sounds, look at Recording devices (depends on the OS you are using, you didn't mention, Vista, XP, 7,8?), Mic. Your Headphones jack, when in use, will cause the internal sound to disable, depending on OS the mic setup is a bit different but you should find it in sounds, recording devices.

u need to check u r sound setting .plz click on sound icon in taskbar then click on sound property and recording there u can check u r mic if mic not working so srry dude u need to buy a new mic kkkkkkk

Go to control panel and sound devices and unmute the mic under record options. To avoid feed back use headphones or mute the mic in the play back option. Audacity is a good open source application to use to record on your PC.

You need to set the internal mic as the default input device. To check this Right click on the sound icon next to the time and select Recording properties. In the Recording properties right click on Arrey Microphone and select set as default. If this does not help. Uninstall and reinstall the sound drivers. To uninstall the sound drivers click on start and type DEVICE. Open device manager from the results and then look for sound devices. Click on the Plus sign next to Saound and audio devices. Right click on the SigmaTel entry there and select uninstall. Put a check on remove this driver from the computer. Once done restart the computer and go to support.dell.com and click on Drivers and Downloads. Enter your system service tag and download the Sigmatel audio drivers and install them. Check if the MIC works after the restart. If the Arrey microphone is set as the default and you have uninstalled and resinstalled the drivers and it does not work in MSN try recording with the Windows sound recorder and see if it works there. To open the sound recorder click on start and type SOUND. Open sound recorder from the results. Incase the mic does not record even in the recorder it could be bad or have a loose connection. If in warranty call/chat with the Dell technical support. If the warranty has expired consult a local computer guy.

The headphones need to be plugged into the green jack on the computer, your microphone needs to be plugged into the pink(red) jack on the computer.

First, make certain that the mic is really broken, by testing it in another application or devise. Sometimes you cannot hear your own voice unless you are in recording mode! If the mic is found to be working, then try to reconfigure the software, or the Yahoo connection. Good Luck!

use a compaticord and plug from the earphone to the mic of the pc and use sound recorder to record the message

dear mil20, this could be because of multiple reasons:

a) You've muted your mic from the speaker icon in task bar.
b) Maybe your sound driver is not installed correctly, can you play music in your system ?
c) You can check your microphone settings in control panel to ensure you've actually enabled microphone options. Also see if you've set default voice instrument speakers or headphone. Finally see if you've plugged the mic right.

d) If none of that helps you might like to take your mic and system to nearest hardware store to ensure nothings wrong with your hardware.
