Have lost sound from the microphones which are still live. I'm told that
there is an icon at bottom right hand corner of my desktop, which will
reverse MUTE, but I cannot find it.
Any other remedies please?

Go to your Windows control panel and look at the sound and or sound card audio manager.

Good luck

Thanks to all for the welcome advice. I must now confess to a stupid
mistake. In tidying up my programs via the Control Panel I had removed the
Sound Drive titled High Definition Audio. Systems Restore recovered the
error, and my sound. Will be more careful next time.

Not enough information. Both M$ and some Linux installations have their
sound buttons there.

If you are running M$ then the advice of going to to the control panel
is good. I know XP will also hide icons which are rarely used. Check for
the "hidden icons" button at the bottom and see if you can view it there.

If you are using something other than M$ then specify what you are using.

Later
