Have you tested the webcam's microphone on your own computer? It is an easy test. You can use any audio program such as Goldwave or the sound recorder found under XP Accessories--Entertainment. Additionally you can open Control Panel, select Sound and Audio Devices. Select the Voice tab.On the bottom right there is a Test hardware button.
Another common problem is that certain software can mute the microphone when launched. You can check this by clicking the Volume icon in the systray. When it opens the window check to see if the mute is clicked anywhere. Uncheck if mute is checked.
Finally, your soundcard manufacturer may have an icon in control panel. An example is RealTek HD Audio Sound effect manager.
You may find a tab identifying the mixer. There is usually a series of adjustments for Mic Volume, Line Volume, and Stereo Mix. Make certain that the Mic Volume is not muted.

Yes Nickarino is right.
When I switched on my new tom tom it gave me that option to speak street names and it vanished after selected a different voice. I checked all manuals and web references in Tom Tom - none of them list it.
Like Nick said - what you need to do is swtich the voice type to SAMANTHA and it will show the option "Read Street Names Loudly". I jumped on it and said yes ..!!!
Thanks Nick !!
