Hi,

2 things come to mind off the top of my head.

#1. Make sure that the microphone is not muted.
#2. Make sure that the microphone volume is turned up.

Also try recording sound in another program to confirm if it is the 
microphone setup or a setting in skype stopping it from working.


Kind Regards,
