Make sure the right mic is selected in the recording device tab of sound manager.

Make sure the right device is selected in the skype settings menu under recording device in the audio section

That is irrelevant, it still needs to be set as the default device in both menus.

Also I can now reveal, you have 2 mics...one in the laptop and the one you plugged in. What is happening is, it is still using the onboard laptop (would explain tapping on laptop heard by friends).

You need to either select the driver you installed from these menus or you need to go into properties and set up the mic in the first place.

I am confident some or all of these steps need to be taken to resolve the issue.
