I have recently purchased a web-cam with in-built microphone. My daughter
also purchased the exact same one. On her computer the mic is working fine,
although on my computer the mic does not work at all.
Does anyone have any idea why it is not picking it up???
I have Windows XP home edition.
We compared setting with our computer and her, there was a difference in
Speech Recognizer. I have Microsoft English Recognizer v5.1 and she has
Microsoft English (U.S) v6.1 Recognizer
Could this be the reason my mic is not working??? If so how do i upgrade to
the verson she has??
