Default Microphone

In trying to set up Skype with a friend using a Mac Book, I am having
problems with getting my voice(or sound) to transmit to him unless I use a
plug in microphone. He says my computer should have a built-in microphone.
I have Toshiba Satellite. I can't determine how to verify there is no built
in device. Speakers are great.
Any suggestions?
thanks

None that I can say/write in polite company.

Does RTFM mean anything to you?

Does the name of this group look like:

Skype will TELL you if there's no microphone......my Satellite L40 doesn't
have one....

Thanks for being so helpful.
You sound just like a person I used to work with.
Man, it makes retirement wonderful as everyone can't be so smart.

While "Big D" might not have been very helpful, (s)he did have a valid
point: this is a P2P support group for discussing the Vista operating
system, not for discussing Skype and not for getting answers to
questions about Toshiba laptop components.

Also it would have helped if you stated what model Toshiba you have and if
you were able to find any information about a microphone in your Toshiba
users manual.
