Mic Mute/Unmute Button
In XP, I'd click on the speaker icon in the system tray and have a mixer.
There I could mute/unmute the microphone input. In Vista it seems like I have to go through a myriad of dialog boxes: Ctrl Panel sound speakers Level. Am I misisng something? Is there a shorter path? If not, can I assign a shortcut key? Thank you |

Mic Mute/Unmute Button
F8 used to be the shortcut Key to Mute or Unmute in XP, when it was up and
running! There is also a setting for it in Media Player. -- Mick Murphy - Qld - Australia "John Ciccone" wrote: In XP, I'd click on the speaker icon in the system tray and have a mixer.

Thanks, Mick.
I'm afraid I don't know what you mean by "when it was up and running". "Mick Murphy" wrote: F8 used to be the shortcut Key to Mute or Unmute in XP, when it was up and running!

Mic Mute/Unmute Button
The speaker in my system tray on both of my Vista systems works exactly the
same as it and yours did in XP. Have you gone to control panel/taskbar.../notification area/ and checked to be sure that the Volume Icon is checked? "Mick Murphy" wrote in message ...
