How to Hook Up a Microphone and Headset to a Computer
In the past, business professionals used telephones to conference with customers or employees, but applications like Skype have made it simple for all users to voice and video chat with one another long-distance. Having a good audio configuration is critical for workers who often need to touch base with clients or other business professionals. Headsets allow users to both listen to and talk to others hands-free, but sometimes the mouthpieces attached to a headset aren't of the best quality. You can connect the speakers on the headset to the computer but hook up a separate microphone to the PC to use instead of the headset's mouthpiece. 1.
Plug the headphone connector on the headset to the green-colored jack on the back of the desktop PC or into the headphone jack on the right or left side of the laptop or netbook. 2.
Connect the microphone to the pink-colored jack on the back of the desktop computer or into the mic jack on the right or left side of the laptop or netbook. 3.
Click "Start ' Control Panel ' Hardware and Sound ' Sound." Select the headset on the Playback tab and then click "Set Default" to use it instead of the computer speakers. Click "OK."
Hello, Have you installed the driver for it? Look for the DVD that came with it and install it. After installing the driver, update it. You can use RadarSync to automate the updating process of your computer. David
Where did you plug the Mic ?. Most receivers do not have Mic input. Only some DVD players with karaoke have a MIc input in front. The phones socket in front of the Receiver is meant for headphones.
You are probably plugging the mic in the wrong port, you should plug it in the other port looks the same.
I think the port that you are plugging in your mic is of sound (headphones).
Hope this helps
Try a different set of headphone, if it works, then it is the headphone set.
If you get same problem with all headphones, then
If you get no sound: ensure that you have sound from speaker, if you get sound from speakers and no headphone working, then there is a problem in the headphone connection.
If you have no sound at all , not even with speakers, then check audio settings in control panel, ensure audio is not muted. If audio settings are OK, then you need to reinstall audio driver, or you have a faulty audio card.
Additionally, if it is only the mic not working then do the following:
Go to control panel and open sound and audio device.
Open volume settings and find settings for mic.
Tick off the mute option.
The mic is muted by default in Windows, that is usually the reason why it is not working.
If your headphones have a single plug you cannot plug these into a regular speaker connection or headphone connction and get mic and sound, you will need a headset that has 2 separate plugs (one for Mic and one for headphone) or a splitter you can get a radio shack. Most headsets have only one plug and there are connections for both the mic and the headphones on this plug, but the headphone connection on the computer has only connections for the headphone and therefore cannot detect the microphone.
