microphone and yahoo shound!!!

[alidabiri]

i know very little about instant messengers.
my son has xp-pro, with realtek sound (onboard) asus mobo. he can use the sound recorder to record sound with the mic. however, when he uses yahoo, it says that there's no mic attached to the pc. and shen it tests, nothing happens in yahoo. any ideas?

Try unmuting the mic, then run there audio setup wizard.

the mic is unmuted. and we have run the wizard or test, but we can't hear anything.

Would remove yahoo messeger, delete its folder in program files and reinstall it. If it still dont work most likely yahoo servers.
