John,
sorry this would work with older dynamic mikes but not with modern
condensor mikes and may well damage them.

Again, most modern condensor mikes need a D.C. bias voltage on the ring 
connector of the stereo plug, I am surprised however
that the computer sound card doesn't supply this voltage.

Insert an unused stereo plug into the mike input of
the sound card and check between the shell connection and either of
the other two contacts for a few volts.

If none there then I'd guess there is someobscure setting tha the sound card
software for mike type or some such.

Tom
