I am insanely new to windows seven and realtek and I have no clue at all how to make it so my headphones with mic work. I am basically using a pair of earphones that have a mic attached to the cord. On my old computer I didnt have to do anything, the mic just naturally worked, however with realtek, I cannot get the mic on these headphones to work. The sound works just fine, as long as i select the headphones or any of the speaker out functions in realtek however even if i have it only on the mic setting, realtek will not detect anything coming from the mic. Any help is greatly appreciated.
