Win7? If not,im not sure the details but it shouldnt be too different.

If you can find your Sound properties(Search:Sound or find Sound in the Control Panel) and switch tabs to Recording. From there you can see whick Recording Devices are hooked up and enable/disable them.

If you dont see any decives right click the box and make sure "Show Disabled/Disconnected Devices" is checked.
