A very simply solution: Go to Walmart or Meijers store purchase a CHEAP Mic take it home and plug it into the back of your computer that says mic or has a pic of a mic- test it and if it does not work take it back to were you have purchased it. If it does work keep it and BE HAPPY!
Using COMMON SENSE is the first thing in COMPUTER REPAIR - this is not something to cause problems with others - and not worth the headaches - it may be a good thing that we all are over 1000 miles apart!
