Realtek's microphone switched off

Since some time every 1-2 days suddenly the microphone of Realtek is
switched off.
This is unpleasant as I cannot reply anymore to Skype calls.
How can I find out which program changes this parameter?
Where is this parameter in Registry? (I could write a small prog which
checks it regularly)
Thanks for your help

Horst,

Use regmon from system internals, change the setting yourself & capture the
key read/writes. With that info you can knock-up a small registry app. Not
very difficult in VS.NET

Thank you, but it didn't work.
I found the 2 locations which are modified when I deactivate the mic in
Realtek.
But when I change the registers directly nothing happens!
And in Regmon (now Process monitor) no other file seems to be changed
when I switch the mic on or off!
Any more suggestions please?

Reg mon works for XP. Process Monitor is for Vista onwards

I have a Skype phone & I have registry activity when enabling/disabling it

Do you mean the microphone is mysteriously disabled in the properties
on your screen or it is enabled but doesn't work?

Right, the mic in audio input is suddenly and mysteriously disabled.
When I enable it it will work again.
