Exactly what error message do you get?

Have you got a 32-bit system or a 64 bit-system? Have you installed a 32-bit OS or a 64-bit OS?

Skype>S button (bottom left)>Options>Sound Devices

You need to TRY the different settings for Microphone and Speakers.

To start a videochat with Skype, click on name of person and click the green phone icon.
