Windows 10: mic not working

ive tried 3 different mics and they all seem to not work and all get some error like this one below. Ive tried updating drivers and windows and it didnt seem to help. when i go in and test the mic i can hear myself talking but when i turn off the test it goes back to no audio being picked up. the mic is not muted or anything like that. ive tried just about everything i can think of and the only thing that seems out of place is this error.



Device USB\VID_0D8C&PID_0014&MI_00\6&21738afc&0&0000 requires further installation.

USB Mic Problems.


The next step is what I suggested originally. Try it in a friend's PC or take it to Best Buy and ask them to try it one of their PC's. Have to confirm the mic is working OK.

 

Front Panel Headphones and Mic not working.

Hey Everyone,

Mobo : ASUS M2N MX SE
Processor : AMD Athlon X2 5200+
OS : Windows XP Professional SP2 x86

My Rear panel Speakers and mic works all fine. I got a new set of headphones(with mic) when i connect it to the front panel they don't work. NO SOUND OUTPUT.

I updated the audio drivers. I tried a few many things but I still can't get them running.
My default Sound Manager is Realtek HD Audio Manager.

Please help me get my Front Panel working. A step-by-step guide would be better.
Thanks.
