Go to System/Preferences/Sound

On the hardware tab set up your sound card.  Probably "Analog Stereo 
Duplex" would be appropriate.

On the input tab select the appropriate device radio button for where 
your microphone is connected.  You might have to select the appropriate 
Connector if you are using a microphone plugged into your sound card. 
Adjust the Input volume setting.  Be sure that the [X] Mute check box is 
not checked.

You should see the bar meter responding to your voice.  If there is no 
response you've found your problem.  If the mic doesn't work then Skype 
isn't going to have any luck with it either.
