Have you checked that the microphone is unmuted? Does your card have |
| 26 |
multiple options for the microphone port (line-in as well as mic)? |
| 27 |
Have you adjusted the microphone volume? |
| 28 |

These are all issues I have had with the microphone on my webcam. The |
| 30 |
drivers which matter are the soundcard drivers if you are plugging the |
| 31 |
microphone into it, so I am 99.99% sure it will work with the current |
| 32 |
setup, once you find the correct combination of settings for the |
| 33 |
sound card. |

Good luck with it, |

Rob. |
