Plug the mic into the mic input on your sound card. Then dub click the little speaker icon at the bottom right. In the window that comes up uncheck the box under the mic slider. If the mic slider is not their, click (same window) options then in the drop down menu put a check in the mic box and apply. Run the slider up and pa away.

OK, scratch that last message. I assume you mean the volume control when you said "speaker". I double clicked it and found Volume Control, Wave, SW Synth, and CD Audio. I clicked options and under Properties I found Recording. That gave me the option to check or uncheck Stereo Mix, CD Audio, and Microphone. I tried checking and unchecking those but didn't get any response. What am I missing? "Nick Burns" wrote: > Plug the mic into the mic input on your sound card.

Hi Nick, I don't see a speaker icon in the lower right hand corner. Is therre a way to get it on there? I went to Control Panel, Sounds and Audio devices, and looked in there but didn't see anything that might help. Thanks. "Nick Burns" wrote: > Plug the mic into the mic input on your sound card.

OK, scratch that last message. I assume the speaker you mean is the volume control speaker. I double clicked it but it didn't give me an option to check or uncheck a microphone. I only have Volume Control, Wave, SW Synth, and CD Audio. Under Options, Properties I clicked Recording and it gave me an option for stereo mix, CD Audio, and Microphone. Checking or unchecking any of those doesn't seem to make a difference with the microphone. What am I missing?

Microphone should be selected, unmuted and volume slider turned up on both the Recording and the Playback lists. Good luck, jimbo >> Stay informed about: Using the Microphone as a PA system

For PA you would use the mic volume slider instead of mic record. "Klaus" wrote in message > OK, scratch that last message. I assume you mean the volume control when you > said "speaker".
