I don't wanna repeat any suggestions, but you never replied to Null when he suggested that the mic is on mute in volume properties.
Have you ever tried to use a mic before on the comp? The mic port could be bad.
probably: a) missing something stupid
b) drivers f'ed up
c) bad port

He did.
Theres just a ton of simple things to check when dealing with mics and things like that. more often then not its thoes over the main things like drivers and such. like in control panel, going to the sounds and devises, and making sure settings are right under the 'voice tab'
my friend had a problem where the mic wasnt workin, on his it was cuz it was set to suround sound. and on onboard sound, it switches what each one does. like the mic became the rear speakers plug. (as i said before)
bad part is always possible. you can get a decent sound card for not that much tho. like a Sound Blaster Audigy LS is only $49
i'd rather have a sound card over onboard. my same friend had his computer keep resetting on battlefield randomly. once he bought a sound card it stoped. the game was just too sound intensive for his onboard sound.
