Open up your volume toolbar, advanced and make sure that your mic is not muted, turned down or that your mic +20 boost is turned off. You can always uninstall sound drivers and have vista find them again on boot up, but Vista is such a new platform that your mic hardware may not be compatible. Good luck, I have never had good results with the windows mic.

I bought an HP Presario C700 with VIsta OS. I changed it to XP but the built in micropone is not working.

Make sure the microphone is not "muted" and the slider is up in the mixer panel. Usually you can right click on the speaker icon in the lower right of your window to activate the mixer panel window.

Mirophone problem in window 7100

Using the Windows 7 Beta is meant to be a test version of the upcoming operating system, not a fully functional version. If your microphone cannot be heard on the other end, try downloading drivers for the microphone. If this does not work, try submitting a bug report to Windows to get a patch made to fix this issue.
Keep in mind, you are using a beta opersating system and your expectations should not be that of a stable release. Things are meant to break.
