Rather, there is a "Windows > users don't know how to adjust windows settings, including > MIC volume, problem." How about an O/S incompatibility or conflict? I want Dell to fix the problem in my $1500 machine! Now they are saying it is an O/S incompatibility with the onboard sound and I should do a PC Restore. Hello? It is still using the system that shipped with it. XP SP2. If it's incompatible, then this problem existed from the factory. A Dell tech wanted to reinstall the multimedia part of xp. When I asked why, the Dell tech said there's possible conflict. I asked why then Dell shipped out systems with possible -- known -- conflict.
