since updating Skype to version 4.00.216 I have lost the jack microphone. I can't quite remember the audio setup from before but in the audio tab of sounds and audio devices I only have Creative SB Live! series available as a recording device and the advanced option is greyed out (there is no microphone detected in Sound Recorder either). As I have updated all my PC drivers in the last week I don't really want to roll back to say a couple of weeks ago, uninstall Skype and find an earlier version unless vital. I am using XP home, SP2.
Thanks
