    To activate the popup, go to Start/Control Panel/'Sigmatel' and see if there is an option to allow popups and check it. Afterwards select mic as the jack configuration and see if that helps.

    Test with Sound Recorder or a similar recording program, not voip because there might be a different problem going on with Skype or voip.
