Go into device manager and locate microphone on the list, click the + to the left, and right click to open, and click enable.

In tools options audio is there a microphone selected? If not then select a microphone and see if the bar jumps when you talk. If there is another microphone available then try switching to that and seeing if the bar jumps when you talk. If none are available then skype does not recognize your microphone. Check if your computer recognizes your microphone by going to control panel -> hardware and sound -> manage audio devices -> recording and see if the bar next to the items moves when you talk. If not ensure they are enabled by clicking twice on the microphone and next to device usage select use this device (enable).

Hi,

This will happen if the Microphone in the Computer is not enabled or if the Audio Driver is not installed correctly.

To make sure that you have enabled the Microphone in the computer, please right click on the Sound icon on the System Tray (right corner of the taskbar). Then, select the "Recording Devices" option. This will open the Sound Properties window. In the Speaker/Headphones Properties window, click on the Levels tab. Then, on the Levels tab, next to Microphone , click on the speaker button to enable the microphone.After that click the OK button and close the open windows. This will enable the Microphone in the Computer.

If the issue still persists, you may need to re-install the Audio Driver in the computer to fix it.

Please download the file to a temporary folder in the Computer. After that, please open the folder where the file is downloaded and double click on it to begin the installation.

Re-installing the Audio Driver also fixes the issue with the Microphone. Hope this helps..

Hello

Usually on default the microphone is not enabled in windows, so you have to do it manually. This is the steps you have to follow.

Control panel
Sound
Recording(or microphone heading, it may differ)
Enable microphone

Now it should work if it was not enabled in the first place.
If this does not work try plugging in the combo in the back panel of your case. or visa versa.
I hope this can help you. Please rate this.

Best regards

go to control panel and enable your audio driver... reboot your laptop.... now open the audio driver icon from the system tray and try to test the microphone... enable the settings for microphone in it
