Have you tested to make sure the mic works? As in, trying to record on your computer. If your mic is working, it could be a problem on her side.

Go to: Start --> Programs --> Accessories --> Entertainment --> Sound Recorder.

Your webcam also should have come with software to record video. This could also be used to test the sound. Good Luck.

This happened to me once. I was forced to change a setting in the sound card menu. I would consult the manual on your sound card. I cannot remember what exactly I had to change, but it was just un-checking some feature. My sound card was an Nvidia.

Check to make sure the mic is plugged in to the correct port or hasn't become unplugged.

JohnSnownw agrees: Good Call. I would have mentioned that, but he said it was working before. Shame on me!
