Default microphone

I have an inbuilt mic' in my NEC monitor, when I am in messenger and test it
I get a reading.

I am on win 98, can I test the mic and get it to play back through the
speakers so I know it is working,
which is the best function to do this with.

Cheers Steve.

Use sound recorder to test the microphone.

Thanks Jeff,

Have done that and put inbuilt mic (see first post) on full volume in sound
recorder, am getting a response on the graphics to loud hand claps close to
the mic and voice very close to mic.

However, the replay is VERY quiet, any ideas

Cheers Steve

Are you saying that you can record the handclaps and voice, but it's very
quiet? In that case, the microphone may be faulty, or it may be the wrong
type for the sound card.
