Look in your audio settings when in a call, there are often 2 mics shown & it's a simple option to choose the "other" mic.

Anything more complex than this & I get lost with Skype!

I have the same problem with my Skype settings, ie, it defaults to mike 1 which doesnt work and I have to manually change it to mike 2 whenever I go on - is there a way to set mike 2 as a default?

Try this....Open Skype
Click on tools
Click on Options
Click on Audio Settings
Click on Microphone......You should then have a drop down list.
Ensure you have clicked on the right microphone device eg I am using the mic in my webcam
Tick automatically adjust microphone settings
CLICK SAVE at the bottom of the page important!

No guarantee but it works for me

Tried that Brian, but when choosing microphone there is no drop down list just IDT? no other options are available? but thanks for your help I may have to get a teki in, also tried your suggestion Mark, but again no joy but thanks anyway.
