thanks for that. I am using the latest version and I have looked at all the
options and also the help pages in which they mention using the drop down
box and clicking on 'your USB sound device'. That is where the problem
occurs. I am not using a USB device and the only option in the drop down box
it the sound card that is installed. There is no other option.

Lenny,

What version of Skype are you using?

3.5.0.239 is the latest version & a few versions prior to that had sound
issues. I know as
I reported them to Skype myself

TOOLS | OPTIONS in Skype then the Audio tab on the left will allow you to
change the
device you are currently using. If that doesn't work then change your
preferred device in
Control Panel

Last resort would be to contact Skype (support@xxxxxxxxx) & just hope you
don't get Indrek
replying to you as she is totally useless. She'll give you advice like
make sure you put
your car in the garage before opening Skype or turn off your washing
machine as her
knowledge of computers is absolutely zero

Good luck

Hi,
Not sure about the group.
I have skype installed on my computer (XP Pro) with a sound card in the
back
and speaker/mic ports on the front. My Skype headphone set it plugged
into
the front panel of the computer. How can I get the music to come out of
the
speakers (plugged into the sound card at the back) and the skype sound to
come out of the front panel (but not the music). A double bonus would be
if
skype also rang through the sound card as well as the front panel but the
voice didn't.

So far I have only been able to get everything coming out of both places.
Cheers
Lenny
