Donk I told him all this in my messages but perhaps he did not follow the advice.

Normally there'll be 3 sockets in a horizontal line. One is for speakers - and you've already got your speakers plugged in and they are working. So that leave 2 empty sockets. Blue is usually the line-in jack, and Pink is usually the mic jack (like someone else already posted). So try pink first. You've probably already checked this, but in Control Panel's "Sound" category you'll find all the volume sliders that control the various audio options on the PC. Most sound drivers have 3 sliders for input device: mic, line-in, and aux (also sometimes called by another name like "mixer"). Just be sure that "mic" is the one with the check mark. Also under Control Panel's Sound category you should find the properties utility for your sound chip. This will have various tabs - pick the one called "Audio" or "Voice" and be sure that the correct device is chosen for all the voice and recording options. The correct device would be your actual sound card or chip which is listed in Device Manager under the Sounds category. Also, what program are you trying to use your mics with? There may be a setting in that program's "preferences" section to select an input device? You've prob already done the above but just thought I'd mention it as a place to start troubleshooting. Good luck, Donk [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ If you have any questions or problems with any aspect of this site, please feel free to contact me directly [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please do not post personal issues directly to the group.
