Hi Judy
I am using Windows XP Home and my Sound Card is a Sigmatell Audio. I went into Sounds and Audio Devices, Properties Sheets and had a look at the properties of the Sound Recording Device. The only option I found there for adjusting the volume was was a link for Sound Recording Level, this took me to my Volume Control Sheet and everything looked fine, the mic level was at 100%. I could not see any mention of mic gain boost anywhere. Am I looking in the right place?
Best wishes. Andy

Try the mic gain boost in recording properties--it says advanced controls and check the 20 db mic boost.
Hope that helps

Hi all.
The subject line says it all. I have three mini-plugs on the back of my
computer. The first has my line-in attached to a minidisk. The second is
for my speakers, so I've plugged the microphone into the third socket. I've
bumped everything up to 100% in the volume control of XP and did the same to
the volume control within my sound card. However, the sound is very low.
Not an expensive microphone, but I'd have liked better. Perhaps there is
something else which I need to do. I'm using the microphone with Goldwave.
Any advise would be very welcomed. Thanks.
Best wishes.
Andy from sunny Kilcreggan.
