    Never tried the built in mic before until today. I tested it out using the mic recorder and I can barely hear my voice. Is there a fix to this? I tried updating the driver, but nothing changed.

    There's a very lengthy thread about this. bottom line is call Dell. They'll do diagnostics and probably give you a new screen (the mic is part of the assembly apparently)
