I have a Dell Inpiron 8200 Notebook with a Intel 8280/CA/CAM
AC'97 Audio Controller. The microphone level is very low to non-existant.
I have checked all the Control Panel settings. It looks like a Driver
problem to me.
The Microphone/s work on other systems. This has been tried on the Microsoft
Sound Recorder, Audacity digital editor and the Text to speech functions.
Any help would be appreciated

Realtek has a Vista beta driver on their web site. It's possible that might
help, if Dell hasn't made some unusual changes to your hardware that would
preclude using it. You could give it a try and revert to the old driver if
it doesn't work.

microphone problem

Posted: 12-28-2007, 02:19 AM

I just purchased a new mic tonight. After installing it,I go to test it and
notice nothing happening. I used Audocity and Sound Recorder. Both of those
gave me error messeges that my mic could not be located. So I go into my
sound setting and click on "Recording devices". Once I click on this,the
window freezes up and I have to use ctrl-alt-del to close it out. It says
that the mic is unavilable before I close it. Is there anyway to stop this
window from freezing?
