audio feedback problem

[jambuttie]

Hi Everyone I have a problem I have been trying to solve for a few weeks. I have a Logitech web cam also my son and daughter has the same camera. Whenever we talk to one another we have a feedback problem with the speakers howling even at low volume I have set everything up according to the specks the mike is positioned away from the speakers and everything I can also hear what I have said coming back a few seconds later as if my voice is being picked up on their speakers and sent back to me and they hear the same at their end like a ping pong echo .no matter what volumes and wherever we move the speakers we canÂ’t cure the problem. It doesnÂ’t seem like a normal feedback problem where the mike is too close to the speakers or pointing at them etc I am on windows XP and they both have 98 I have been through all the menus and set everything like they said but we still have the feedback has anybody else had this problem? you can e mail me please at crossroads1@shaw.ca thanks Jambuttie

click on advanced under your mic. uncheck your mic boost.

if advanced isn't there, click option, then check advance controls
