Turning a Mic off on a Netbook.

Hi there.

I have a Samsung N110 netbook running Windows XP.

I was just wondering if there was a way to Turn off the internal Microphone so it can not be used for things like skype?

I'v searched and not been able to find an answer.

Thanks.

    Normally you can do this by either double clicking the speaker volume icon on the bottom right on taskbar or going to the sound settings in control panel and adjust/mute the mic

    Have a look at this page

    Thank you.

    I had done all that except for the 'Boost' thing, so hopefully that will sort it.
