The majority of all desktop computers have and use external microphones, which means you will have to have a microphone connected to the computer. If you do not have any type of microphone attached to your sound card (the same place as your speakers) you do not have a microphone on the computer.
If you have a laptop or other portable computer it is likely that it has a built in microphone. The microphone will usually be on the top or in the front of the portable computer and be identified with a picture of a microphone or "Mic" next to a small hole.
