Yesterday morning I used my headset (which has micrphone attached) on skype but when I went to use it last night I could no longer be heard.  I went and did a sound test and it was working alright but still nothing on skype. Today however I can no longer get any readings when I do the sound test and I tried it with both my microphones. Can anyone help me????????

Perhaps the plug is broken now?

Just something if you really are desperate, use in-ear? headphones, and plug them into the microphone jack.

They are just basically inverted microphones.

The audio coming from it usually won't be loud enough, but I think the Audio Wizard should help you amplify it.

I tried it with my iPod headphones - it really does work! (Seriously!)
