Skype Call Dropping

[Evoss]

Hey,

I often use Skype for when playing games online with mates etc... At random times, not under heavy internet usage etc... the Skype call drops. Everyone else who is in the call can continue talking, but on my end it says the call has dropped and says it is trying to reconnect.

On my end Skype does not say I have gone offline, however when the call does reconnect it shows everyone logging back in.

This issue has persisted prior to the sale of Skype to Microsoft and I have tried reinstalling it, making sure Skype ports are all open etc...

Anyone got any ideas what can be causing this?

Thanks

On the Skype window activate the diagnostics panel; mine would drop like this when my processor was being absolutely hammered and Skype just gave in.
