  2. Windows 10 not detecting mic on earbuds

    I'm trying to use the mic on my earbuds for skype. I plugged them into my headphone jack, it says there is no mic plugged in. I tried plugging them into the mic jack, still nothing. I tried every jack on my PC it still doesn't pick up sound. How can I
    make the mic on my ear buds work

  3. Logitech H130 Headphones audio works, but mic does not

    I have tried all of the jacks in my computer. (using Windows 10) The mic does not work in a single one. The headphones I have, have two plugs; one for the mic jack and one for the headphone jack. The headphone slot works fine, and I am pretty sure that
    the jack is not the issue. When I right-click on the volume button, and go to playback devices, the mic does not even show. The driver is up-to-date as well. It worked, then stopped, then started, then then stopped working. Please help.

    The CPU/Central Processing Unit is on the motherboard. Most computer cases of the last several years have a Microphone jack on the front panel beside the Speaker/Headphone jack [pink and light green] in addition to the jacks on the back of the computer which are the ones physically attached to the motherboard. Have you tried the microphone on a different computer or computers? Most times Windows will recognize it, try Sound Recorder.

    hey guys thanks for the responses.

    have tried the different jacks for mic on the whole cpu and windows does not seem to reconize it when connected like it would when I connect something with usb.
    it just doesn't detect a thing

    also tried it with the speech recognition area in the control panel and nothing

    its just not detected

    what are your thoughts?

    That pretty much says your mic is bad, have you tried it on a different computer or a different mic on your computer?

    You have VIA CODEC chip in there, it's drivers are known to make problems.

  9. Any chance of getting a cheap mic that works through your usb.
    Have you also run trouble shooter and see what that comes up with
    Have you also run SFC /Scannow
    SFC Command - Run in Windows 10

    Yes. Good idea.
    It will confirm at least if the mic is good or defective.
    Make sure if it is NOT a hardware issue first.
