I am experiencing erratic voice service on Yahoo Messenger lately. Nothing has been changed in my setups and 3 of my computers can’t access the voice server. Everytime I try to call computer… I get a prompt . After a while it will reset and tells me try again and again. It is only happening lately for a week now. Can someone give me some advice to fix it or is it the Yahoo Server Site that is having problems?
Thanks,
Eddie

If your Device is being used by another program…ummm …If you are using one of those free after rebate modems…it may have carpserv.exe it comes with the software. That seems to interfer with voice. But I don’t know how to fix it. Sorry I can’t help more…but i am guessing it is that carpserv and I can’t remember the modem it comes with BUT check to see what programs are running and I think you will see it there. ctrl alt delete.

Hi,
I have voice chat thru Yahoo messenger 9.0 with frnds, but recently I was not able have voice chat and it propmted that me that other person voice is not wrking and same message at my frnd chat window.
at call we r able to see the mic voice level flcutating but for speaker its not.

Thanks a lot setting up the Audio settings in messenger prefrences has worked (Just remember if the system default is not working even if the same name, change it to what works)
For example my system default was showing “AK5370 system default” and if you click the drop down there was just “AK5370″ listed, I selected that and it worked. Thanks cheers………..

thank u.. it did help!!
