Reputation: 2352  Rep Power: 60 | How about... - Right-click at the speaker icon at system tray - Choose Recording Devices - Is the external microphone detected in the list? - Is there a check mark at the icon - Try right-click at the external microphone and choose Set as default device. See if that works. If you haven't try that yet...
