I keep trying to use my S mode indoors–i set my ISO to 1600 because I am indoors and i usually try to get my shutter speed to about 160 to freeze motion but my pictures are always dark. I have a nikon slr d40. how do i fix this?

If the images are dark, you are under exposing the images. Try using the aperture priority mode with the lens wide open. If you are underexposing, you will see that in the view finder.
You can adjust the EV to +1.00 or even +2.00 and see when the image bright enough.
If you are willing to use a program like Noise Ninja, you can shoot at 3200 ISO
The settings we use at WNBA cameras is1/250 wide open with the with the white balance is set at about 3230 degrees Kelvin. At times the shutter speed can reach 1/500th second

I’m assuming you’re using flash (although you don’t say so)? Crank up the power on your on-camera flash (if your not using a separate flash gun). Nikon on-camera flashes suck, anyway.
Two words: exposure compensation. The D40 (and 80) are notorious for over-exposing to begin with. Shooting at a larger aperture will help, but you’ll lose depth of field.
