Using the microphones

Your computer has built
in microphones that can be used to record stereo sounds into your applications. It can also be used to issue voice commands to applications that support such functions.

Since your computer has built
in microphones and speaker, "howling" may be heard under certain conditions. Howling occurs when sound from the speaker is picked up in the microphones and amplified back to the speaker, which amplifies it again to the microphones.

This howling occurs repeatedly and causes a very loud, high
pitched noise. It is a common phenomenon that occurs in any sound system when the microphones input is output to the speaker (throughput) and the speaker volume is too loud or too close to the microphones. You can control throughput by adjusting the volume of your speaker or through the Mute function.

To adjust the volume or activate Mute, click start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to Entertainment and click Volume Control. In the Master Volume panel, you can use the slide bars to adjust the volume level or click Mute at the bottom of the panel.
