1-Press the "Start" button in the lower left corner of the screen.
2-Select "Settings," then "Control Panel," then "Multimedia." The Multimedia
Properties window should be displayed.
3-Click on the "Devices" tab.
4-Click on the plus-symbol (+) next to "Audio Compression Codecs" to expand
the list of installed codecs.
5-If "DSP Group TrueSpeech(TM) Audio CODEC" is displayed, go to step 13.
6-If "DSP Group TrueSpeech(TM) Audio CODEC" is not displayed, it needs to be
installed. You will need your Windows CD-ROM (or will need to locate the
Windows installation files on your computer).
7-Press the "Add" button. The Add window should be displayed.
8-Select "DSP Group TrueSpeech(TM) Audio CODEC" from the list of drivers,
then press the "OK" button.
9-If the "Driver Exists" warning is displayed, press the "Current" button.
10-You will be prompted to restart Windows. You may restart now or later,
but the codec will not be available until you restart your computer.
11-If you are still receiving the same error message after restarting your
computer, continue to the next step.
12-Open the Multimedia Devices window as directed in steps 1-4.
13-Select "DSP Group TrueSpeech(TM) Audio CODEC" from the list of Multimedia
Devices, and press the "Properties" button. The Properties window is
displayed.
14-Verify that "Use this audio codec" is selected and press the "OK" button.
Press the "OK" button in the Multimedia Properties window, and try to start
a voice chat again
 
Vista doesn't have a "multimedia" icon like XP did.....
so I can't seem to get to the part to add the codecs
 
I tried that and it didnt work, I have no Audio Compression Codecs anywhere
on my stupid vista computer.
Anyone else?
I want to voice chat with friends, i'm sick on not being able to do so. I
wish the hell I had never gotten vista. Nothing is compatible on this stupid
thing. I've wasted 1800bucks on a new comp that doesnt work any better then
the one i had built by a friend.

do u make a new operating system thats worst than the last platform??...ppl
are wasting their money on windows vista and it doesnt even have the same
capabilities as the old system...im tired a freakin beggin microsoft and
yahoo for a stupid dayum audio compression codec for yahoo what in flying is
so hard about making it...the idiots has to know by now its been a freakin
year...im jus gonna go to MAC fu%k yahoo and fu%k microsoft! fu%king morons
