    So I was webcaming with a friend and he said my mic was horrible. It sounded like I was outside and very windy and statically sounding. What is the driver for it? Is it the webcam driver?

    Sigmatel Audio driver. Try updating it / reinstalling the driver.

    Uninstalled and reinstalled still the same.

    Edit: My webcam doesn't seem to be able to record either, the program freezes and i have to kill it. However I am able to take pictures. It is because I am running windows 7?
