Satellite C660-18C - Can't get the microphone to work

So I couldnt get the microphone to work so I bought a new one. I also can not get this to work. I have tried everyway I can think of and it simply will not register any sound and yes the microphone is on and the volume is full.
Can someone please help me fix this? Its driving me crazy!

Hi belthazora,
Just to make sure we talk about an external microphone that you have connected to microphone jack and not internal one? I ask this because the notebook doesnt have internal microphone.
Anyway, if you use an external microphone make sure its listed in sound devices under recording tab. Can you see it there?
I would also recommend a sound driver update if it doesnt work. You can download all updates on official Toshiba page:

  • Satellite L20-153 can't get the WLAN to work

    Hi everyone,
    I have a problem with my wifes laptop that I havent been able 2 solve.
    Her windows crashed and wouldnt start the marker in "DOS" just keept blinking and nothing happend I tried to restore to latest previous working windows , but that didnt help nor did the failsafe mode. So I took out the recovery CD/DVD and tried make a fresh installation the install setup worked fine until it asked me 2 take out the disc and restart the comp which I did.
    When it rebooted the same problem appeared (blinking marker and nothing happens).
    So what I did was I took out a normal windowes XP (SP2) and reinstalled eveverything ( I formated the drive also) and rebooted and it worked.
    So then 2 my next challenge was 2 get all the hardware working all I got all working but the WLAN (built-in).
    After I had installed everyting I saw my wireless network but next time I started the comp it was gone along with all other WLAN that I use to be albe 2 see. and when I refreash its still empty.
    I have tried to inactivate it and then activate it again but it doenst help.
    I also tried once more to use the Toshiba recevory disc but got the same problem.
    So now Im back with my own windows Xp installed on it but I cant get the WLAN to work.
    There isnt any hardware conflics.
    So now I need your help on how 2 proceed.
    tanks alot.

    Hello
    About WLAN there is actually no philosophy and few things are important:
    The WLAN card must be installed properly (properly listed in device manager) and
    It must be also enabled. At first with WLAN switch (WLAN LED is ON) and then enable it using FN+F8 key combination.
    After doing this WLAN card should see all available WLANs. To connect one of them is another theme.
    To be honest I didnt understand what happen exactly. If I understand you right your notebook can see WLANs but after restart all available WLANs are not visible anymore. Am I right about that?
    Have you tried to restart your WLAN router and scan the WLAN area again?

  • Satellite Pro M70: Can not get the TV OUT working

    I have connected my laptop to my TV via the TV-OUT socket and a 4 pin S-Video lead. I have turned on the TV as an output in the advanced settings of my graphics card. I have selected TV via the Fn-F5 keys and I get nothing on my television.
    Can anyone suggest what I might have left out to make this work?
    The S-Video lead is new and the hook up to the TV is via a Joytech AV Control Center 2.
    The Joytech unit is operational and the video lead appears OK as the Fn-F5 key press indicates that a TV is available - this disappears as an option if I unplug the video lead from the Joytech unit.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Lorraine,
    I presume that the TV is actually switched to your Joytech AV device ? I presume it gives some kind of signal so that you check that the TV can actually detect it. I once spent a happy few hours trying to use my TV in this way only to find it was switched to the composite inputs not the S-Video one. ;-)
    regards,

  • Help... I can not get my microphone to work

    Help.... I can NOT get my microphone to work with my Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Professional card. When I plug it in and test it (in either Configure Speech Recoginition - Windows Vista / or in Counter-Strike Source, Test Microphone Button under the game options) both indicate that the system is not receiving any sound. However, both the speakers (5.1) and headphones work fine. I am using a Plantronics headset.
    I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Below are my complete system specifications. Let me know what additional information you need, if any.

  • Can't get the software to work with Audigy 2

    Hi, I have had my Audigy 2 ZS going on a year now and haven't had any problems. I recently made a clean install of Windows XP and upgraded to SP2 and all that. Now, I can get sound out of the card but can't get the software to work at all; cannot get the volume slider bar to appear when I click the icon (it appears in the task bar though and I get a small gray square where the slider should appear), the surround mixer does not show when I double click the volume icon, EAX conxole is a no go, get an empty error box when I try to start the Equaliser.
    I have tried everything from simple re-install to clean sweep to praying to the pagan gods. I have alsoo tried updating the drivers of course.
    I run XP on an Intel MoBo (on-boeard sound deactivated), 52RAM, ATI 9700 ALL-IN-WONDER.
    DOES THE CREATIVE SOFTWARE DEPEND ON ANY WEIRD LITTLE WINDOWS SERVICE OR SETTING THAT I MIGHT HAVE CHANGED DURING SETUP?
    This is quite infuriating as any idea I come up with takes up a lot of time in installation, uninstallation and clean up. It worked before, why not now?
    Thanks in advance. dentore

    Ok I got it to work. This is the reply I got from Creative but I didn't remove the program from the add/remove option on the PC b/c that didn't work at first. I inserted the installation CD and remove it from that wizard. Rebooted and the PC found new hardware. I then installed the driver and software from the CD and now it works.
    For Mediasource. It appears something was corrupted in Mediasource or there is a conflict within the system.Please uninstall all software and drivers for the soundcard, from add/remove programs. Once this is done, shut down the system and changePCI slots for the soundcard, then turn the system back on, cancel the found new hardware wizard, disable all background applications (especially virus scanner, firewall, and any other background applications running in the bottom right hand corner of the system), andthen perform a full reinstallation of the drivers and software from the soundcard installation cd.
    CAT I hope you fix your sound card. Good luck.

    I have just won an iphone 3gs in a raffle but when i put in my sim it tells me that it is not supported how can i get the iphone to work?

    In that case the procedure assuming it is a PAYG phone is to get an o2 PAYG sim, put £20 on it and then make a few calls making sure you leave £15 on the sim to pay for the unlock. Then there is an online unlock request form on the o2 site just fill this in. It takes between 1-14 days and you get a message from o2 telling you how to complete the official unlock through iTunes.
    I got my o2 unlock in nov 09 so this is not just opinion.

  • How can i get the SSO to work successfully?

    How can i get the SSO to work successfully?  I followed the note for configuring infoview with ad sso using kerveros & .net.
    Adding the AD group into the win ad authentication configuration page creates the user group but the members of the group aren't being pulled in when I go to the group and select / query the users tab

    Bart,
    By default the setting for update options on the Windows AD tab of authentication does not actually create the aliases until the user attempts to login the first time. We set it this way to prevent a huge group of alias's being created when the administrator sets up Windows AD and also so that only user aliases for users actually using the system get created.  You can change this behaviour though if you like.  Simply change the radio button option to 'New Aliases will be added and new users will be created' this will create the accounts for you when you hit the update button.  If you have a large group your adding I would wait until and afterhours time when you have less activity as this will impact CMS performance while it creates all the accounts.
