I have a headset and I am able to pick up output sound clearly, but when i set up my microphone my friend in skype hears music i played from youtube while i cant record my voice in any way? Is there any way to this?

I am using Windows XP with Realtek HD Audio

You may want to disable Stereo Mix found in recording devices.

Open Sounds and Audio Devices in Control Panel -> Then got to the recording devices tab, and then disable every input you don't use.

You should have a orange speaker icon on the task bar after installing it. Do you have this?

Right click it -> Sound Manager -> Microphone -> try messing with the settings like noise cancellation etc..
Also if there is a stereo mix tab make sure it is muted.

Yes. You shouldn't be hearing yourself, only the other people. As long as they can hear you your fine :)

I terms of game recording?
Using FRAPS you tick both record Windows XX sounds and Record external input and select the right input.
