    When I click on webcam and record a video, there is no audio recorded. How do I fix this? When I run skype it sends the audio to the skype test number so I know the mic works

    The audio on the standard Linpus Acer does not work when you record. Another Acer funny. You need something like Skype to provide the relevant drivers.
    I have for the first time recorded a video and guess where it saved it, to the Video's folder. Check under Settings the spanner and screwdriver and that will allow you to set where you want it saved.
