iChat sound problem

[suchanoob]

i just got my macbook a couple of days ago and i was so excited about using ichat with my sister....but the problem is that i can barely hear her when we use ichat....i also use skype to talk to her and she was supersonic loud compared to the whisper she was in ichat.

i was just wondering if i could modify how loud the sound comes in other than turning her up which doesnt help at all in ichat??
can someone please HELP!!!

No, if you're both in iChat, then she may need to turn up her system-wide mic volume. That can be found in the sound pane of the system preferences, under the microphone tab. There's a slider that probably needs to be increased.
