headset and/or internal mic not working

I can't get my headset to work in windows 7. the mic is acknowledged but doesn't work. I have uninstalled the audio drivers - rebooted and had them reinstall - both with the headset and mic plugged in and unplugged. The internal mic is not showing. So
I have neither the internal mic nor the external mic to work with.

 

Internal mic stopped working for no (apparent) reason

I have only an internal (built-in) mic for my HP compaq 610 laptop.

I rarely use the mic, but then the other day I installed a Cortana update which enabled it for use in the UK.


That day the mic worked -- to speak to Cortana, etc.

The next day or so, I noticed that Cortana could not hear me. Nor could skype, ok google or anything else. The mic just stopped working for no reason.

(I think it was during this period that I installed Office 2010. (but: "so what", right?))

I uninstalled what is called on my PC as "High Definition Audio Device". I rebooted PC, windows apparently reinstalled the device, because it was listed as being present and working again -- but it does not work.

I installed an audio drive from HP, so now two new devices are shown:

Internal mic: IDT high def audio; and

Rec. Playback: IDT high def audio.

- The internal mic is now set as the default.

- The mic is not muted.

- Using MS's "Set Up the Mic" does nothing, it cannot hear me

- Troubleshooting "Recording Audio" cannot find a solution

UPDATE: I reset my computer a week back in time. When it restarted --
the mic still did not work. I gave up then and left it. Now, this morning, I open windows and:
the mic works! Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. How can that be????!!!!!

 

Internal mic no longer works after update

Hi, I did a system update yesterday and after it had completed my internal mic no longer works. I discovered this just as I was about to give an on-line lecture. The mic worked fine the day previously, and when I look in the device manager it isn't on
the list. All I seem to have is the realtek high definition audio device as the input for recording, when I enabled it the mic still didn't work. But, what did happen was that if I played audio I got a feedback echo. As if the headphones where acting as
a mic! If I disbale it the echo stops. I tried to restart Windows Audio in the Services dialogue box, and this just gave the feedback loop.

I know the internal mic is still there as I haven't dismantled the laptop (!), so what has happened? As I say the issue only came up after doing the Windows update.

I could really do with the mic working again, please help!
