Others cannot hear me
The microphone may not be configured properly in Skype.
If the person cannot hear you then, either your microphonedriver not installed or not working OR the microphone is not configured inSkype.
To test your microphone then click on Start - All Programs - Accessories -Entertainment - Sound recorder. Then record your voice and then play it back.If this is OK then the microphone need to be configured in Skype.
To configure the microphone - Open Skype - Tools - Options -Audio Settings for the Microphone THEN click on Save.

The performance of Skype is affected by the bandwidth available from your ISP. The video image your are sending and receiving occupy a large part of the information transmitted over the Internet, therefore make sure the video image setting is at a resolution of 320X240 (e-mail size) and if this is still affecting the audio quality to the other person (ie. the voice breaks up) and the video image then switch the video camera off and if sound and video image from the other party is also affecting you, then also get them to switch off their video camera.
Also check the Video and Microphone settings in Skype - Tools - Options etc. Check the correct video camera and microphone has been selected.

Test your microphone by following the setup process through the Skype program. If it works there you may be having an issue with the speed of your internet connection or too many processes running while trying to use your skype.
If you hold down the CTRL and ALT keys and then click the DEL key once then you can start up the Task Manager.
When you start up the Task manager click on the Processes tab and look at the CPU Usage. If the CPU Usage is high you may not have enough resources available to run the sound card correctly.
If everything seems okay but the mic does not work at all, then follow the sound card instructions listed here:

make sure that what your setting as the defualt is the microphone as well as the sound card.
After that I would make sure your internet connection on both ends is fast enough. You can test this at www.speakeasy.net/speedtest .
Hope this helps...
