Hi I have Windows 8, My contact in Messanger has Win XP, when he is trying to establish Video call all Voice call, he gets a message that I my PC doesn't set up for Video calls or voice call.  On my side I don't have an option to establish video or voice call with this specific contact. Although I can do with the rest. Could you please advice what is it?

When I open my hotmail messenger and try to start a voice or web cam chat with my contacts

My cotnacts are unable to hear my voice.

My web cam works fine, I can see my contacts and they can see me

I have tried several times to re-configure and change the speaker and mic set up but no luck.

my contacts are unable to hear me.

Please can you help

Apparentl;y one of he last updates has eliminated the icons in live messenger, that used to appear

at the top of the message pane, indicating that the other computer was capable of video chat, or voice chat.

I used to be able to send voice clips, but now I can't. What's different is that I reinstalled Windows 7.

The strange thing is that when I go into "Set up audio and video devices" the microphone volume gauge picks up my voice. Not only this but I can have audio calls with friends and they can hear me. So it's clearly not a microphone driver issue (I can also use Windows built-in Voice Recorder without any issues). It also shows that WLM recognises my microphone AS working (as I can have audio calls). 

However, when I attempt to send a voice clip it says: The option to record voice clips is turned off.


This makes it seem like it's a choice...however when I go into Options...Messages. the ONLY bit about voice clips is under "Automatically accept when I receive" - this field, however, is faded out and I can neither tick or untick the box. 

Consequently, I can't receive voice clips either. 

Does anyone know why? Why can't I send/receive voice clips even though WLM acknowledges my mic. and speakers work....?
