I use the sound card I want to use instead of letting windows pic it. The only problem is when I swich sound cards skype doesn't quite like that.

Anyhow, first, a tip which some of you may have discovered already, but I feel this relates to skype using windows. I found when first got this pc, that Jaws 9 was not focusing too well in general and missing out in reading sections of the desk top and various other programmes. At first, I assumed my display driver needed updating which I was able to do using a programme called driver genious pro 8. After which, Jaws behaved in the same way. I then went in to control panel using xp, arrowed down to display entered on it. In the theames section, was set to xp style so I changed this to windows clasic style and applied it. You will then find that the windows buttons and tabs will change to clasic then rebooted. Although Jaws took slightly longer to auto load, I found reading much easier where all parts of the screen were read out correctly and I wondered whether anyone else experienced this and if so should try the above. Finally for now, when in Skype 3.8, under audio, which is the best device to use, windows default for each device or the built in 1, (mine being realtek for example please? Happy skyping and while I remember, I apppollogise to anyone on here who tried to ad me and was declined, different names were popping up in my list which I didn't recognise until reading recent posts. Skype soon. Gary. Thanks for posting to the skype english list.
