Using PTT while in FSX

Im brand new to VATSIM and excited to see what it has to offer, but whenever I try to talk using the PTT button while in full screen mode on FSX: SE, I am unable to talk. The only way for me to successfully contact a controller is by using FSX in window mode and switching windows between FSX and Vpilot everytime I want to make a transmission. Is there anyway to resolve this problem? I want to still use FSX in full screen mode and be able to use PTT, how would I set this up? Also, if anyone has any tips or suggestions for a new user like I am, please share. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Note that if you want to use a keyboard key for PTT, and you run FSX as an administrator, you must also run vPilot as an administrator for the key press to be recognized.

Note: On some computers, if FSX is running as an administrator, PTT keystrokes cannot be read by vPilot unless it is also running as an administrator.
