Vista - Any help appreciated - msn pc to pc call audio problems

mckay9012 · 07-07-2008

Good morning everyone

I have an acer aspire 5315, it does not have a web cam but has a built in speaker. When using msn and yahoo messenger on pc to pc calls, my father can hear me but I can't hear them. They have a web cam for their pc. I have tried everything I can think of. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, mckay9012, and welcome to the forums.

I am assuming that your speakers work normally otherwise? If so, have you checked the volume in the Volume mixer for *just* MSN Messenger? (If you click thee speaker / volume icon in the system tray *once* then you get the volume to pop up - and at the very bottom is the mixer - click that and you can see where to individually set the volume of each application that is currently running)....

Thanks for your kind welcome and thanks for the suggestion - I have checked all this and it's all good - still no connection. I went to my belkin router and changed it to accept, I think it upnd or something, maybe that will help
