I used to be able to switch between which input I put in my headphone jack. It used to pop up where I could choose if i’m using my microphone or my headphones. Now I cannot pick between which one I inserted and i’m very confused on how to get it back.

Question on microphone/headphone combo

My niece bought me a microphone/headphone combination for my pc, but after I put in a new motherboard and windows 10 the microphone plug doesn't work on my front of the case, but it will work on the one in the back. Problem is the green headphone can't be used because the speakers are plugged into the green plug slot. Is there an extension or something that I can plug into the green headphone jack and be able to reach the headphones plug on my speakers? I really don't feel like getting on my knees each time I want to use the headphones because I would have to unplug the pink for microphone and be able to reach the green headphones plug.

 

Lenovo G510: Microphone not working when headphones plugged in

When I plug my headphones in to talk to friends on Facebook Call, they are reporting that my microphone is not working. It is a Conexant Audio microphone and yes, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, with no luck. Any suggestions would
be helpful.
