Here is the problem. I have never used the microphone on this computer before. I went the other day and plugged it into the 3.5 plug and went to test it. When I opened up the sound recorder to record, the lines didn't move. I played it back and you could faintly hear the recording. I went into my sound volumes, made sure all the audio recording things were turned up. Still same thing. Plugged the microphone into the audio plug in the back..same issue..you could record, lines barely moved, but in playback you have to turn your volume up.
So..I installed the webcam that I normally use on the other computer, to see if the microphone that is built into was having an issue. It works perfectly, while recording the lines moves etc and playback is how it should be.
Go out today buy a USB port microphone thinking perhaps it just the plug...nope...USB port micro doing same thing as it did with the plug.
Uninstalled the driver, downloaded the never version, guess what? Yep..same issue.
Is there a setting somewhere on this computer that is off and I just haven't located it? I have to be honest and tell you that it is the darnest thing I have ever seen.
