Cant get the sound to work on Skype although I see my sound coard on Skype settings menu. The sound card works but skype reports "problem with the sound card". I know that Skype does not support WinME so I'm looking for a "fix" Thank you

Thank you for your input however I solved this problem about one month ago by uninstalling the latest Skype version and installing an older version. Since then Skype is working just fine.
