Does anyone know any good live webcam chats like blogtv?

Built in mic and webcam mic not working.?

• Okay so I live in the UK and I talk to a friend in America which is naturally done online, but occasionally we have video chats on MSN. Since I got Windows 7 I never used my webcam, then when I went to have a video chat with my friend, the webcam was fine but the mic won't work anymore. I have done everything I can think of. Been through all the options, made sure it's not muted, tried downloading new drivers for it. Nothing. The only consistent thing I can find is that it seems to have happened to a few people that updated to Windows 7 with their built in mics. So I bought a Creative Live Ultra Webcam, with a built in mic and a seperate mic/headset. These work fine on Creative's main program for video recording. Yet again it will not work with MSN and the Creative website has been no help. So if anyone else is experiencing the same problems or has any way of fixing this it would be much appreciated and no I'm not buying a new laptop this one is only over a year old and it's ridiculous. My laptop is a Toshiba Sattellite A500-15M (and for those who suggest finding any new drivers for it...I cannot find my model of laptop on Toshiba's website even though it's not an old model..) Thankyou in advance!

• Answer:

  You probably just need to adjust your microphone settings. Try the webcam technical support article below for step-by-step instructions (with screen shots) showing how to adjust your mic.
