Hi I have an HP note Book G70-460 US with Windows Vista.
The Built in Microphone is
Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221 (built in).
I have problem with it. I go to control panel and check the driver, the driver is updated and it does not say it has any problems.
However, I test it and it does not get any voice. I tried Yahoo messenger, google talk to test my audio all say we cant hear yoir voice.
How can it be disconnected while windows show it is fixed.
If I buy an external microphone like desk top microphone or the ones with headphone, which type can I buy? would that fix it?
Where is the internal microphone physically located? Does it have a card? Is it combined with sound card or separate? Is the card between the hinges of the laptop? So it might be broken? Is it wired through hinges? Someone told me it is like that and the wire gwets disconnected after a while. So no hope?
I tried to restore my windows to previous date but regardless which dates i chose it after it restarted it said there was a problem with your restoring so windows wrere not restored to previous date!
I thank you in advance
