I have had a few good gaming headsets and for everyone I have ever used not one of them were detected as a different mic in the recording options. The mic properties just switch to use the headset mic, unless you have something like the Astro A50 that has its own software and drivers or some Razer and SteelSeries products it doesn't show as anything different. If it isn't working then you have an issue. Have you tested the headset to see if the speakers and the mic work??

Make sure the mic is completely in the port. Also are there any other cords that this came with other than the mic piece and the mic and sound cords?? One more thing to add, make sure both of the jack cables are in there respective jacks. If none of that helped will look around some more.

Go to recording devices and anywhere in the white open space, right click, and hit show disabled devices.
