External microphone does not work - HP G62 Windows 7

Hi all

My microphone works fine. Also, if I plug in a headset, his mic works fine as well.

However, I tried to use an external microphone like this:

but it does not work on my laptop HP G62, although it works perfectly on a PC.

I'm running on Windows 7 Ultimate.
Any tips?
Thank you

heheheh... Sorry, I was wrong! I've changed the mic to stop rather than switch!
The word 'on' should appear when you switch, not disappear.

  • Satellite L50-B916 - recording external Microphone does not work

    Hello

    Connect an external microphone to * Headphone\Microphone combo socket *, still records through portable microphone instead of externally. Registration of external Microphone does not work.

    What Miss me? Please notify.

    Model: L50-B916
    Screenshot: http://s12.postimg.org/j8h3v5k4d/laptop.jpg

    I can't say with certainty what may be wrong here, but two things confuse me:
    -somehow your external MIC is obviously not detected because in the case when the external microphone is connected laptop switches automatically to it
    -I don't understand why there are two identical entries under recording devices.

    When I connect my headphone it is always a single entry (Conexant SmartAudio HD default unit), but my machine automatically goes to the external microphone only.

    Have you tested the feature with some applications like Skype?

    The computer recognizes the headset but not my external microphone.

  • Satellite A215-S4747 (internal and external) microphone does not work

    Hello

    I write about my wife by Satellite A215-S4747 running Windows XP.
    A few months ago as the built-in microphone and external microphone has stopped working.

    This made me think it was a driver problem, although no issue in
    Control Panel > sounds and Audio devices > equipment for all drivers.

    I went through the Troubleshooting Wizard, but that did not help.
    I went and downloaded drivers RealTek HD Audio (R2.67), but that didn't fix it.

    Any help is very appreciated.

    Thank you

    I want to emphasize that this machine is about 6 years old, making the possibility of some parts break most likely...

    Hello

    Sound works. Right? Well well, in that case I n t think that it is an audio driver problem.

    First of all, I think you should check some basic settings.
    (1) mic device.
    Go to the control panel-> sounds and Audio-> Audio-> sound recording devices
    Here you check if device right microphone has been selected

    (2) mic volume
    Go to the control panel-> sounds and Audio devices-> Audio-> audio-> Volume
    Here you check if the volume is at max level
    Additional button Advanced should be available at the bottom of the mic volume control click that it and check if the mic push in checked.

    Have you installed some tools or software which may affect (disabled) the microphone?

  • External microphone does not work with my Satellite A200-196

    You will find the Set up microphone option. Start Microphone Setup Wizzard and check the functionality of the mic it.

  • Satellite A300D-11 t - external microphone does not work

    Hello.

    I have the Satellite A300D-11 t, Windows Vista HP 32 bit SP1.
    After almost a year of functioning of the system, Vista decided to fail. So I reinstalled it.

    I downloaded all the necessary drivers and forgive me - no unnecessary waste, such as + help +, + acoustic silencer +, + Config Free + and so now (surprisingly fan slowed down and all the computer is colder).

    Now. When I plug the headphones with built-in microphone system does not automatically switch on this one.
    In + Control Panel / sounds + I can see that I plugged it, I can do a test and the test itself works perfectly with a helmet but + recognition + however receives sound from microphone.

    Also when music plays of any player, plug the headphones does not switch anything - music plays again from built-in speakers. The same situation with + Skype + and change any setting does not help.

    Initially, I forgot to install the audio drivers because Windows has done it for me, but adding it did not improve the situation.

    I'm starting to think that maybe I didn't install anything. Here's what I have so far:
    -lan drv - 20080715144843
    -modem drv - 20080403094119

    -touchpad drv - 20080715144806
    -webcam drv & soft - 20080715144822

    Can someone help me with this?

    Hello

    As far as I know that the laptop supports the audio chipset Conexant CX20561 then you must install the Conexant audio driver!

    Please install the SP3 of XP Win first before install you the audio driver.

    PS: If the newer BIOS version has been released then update also!

  • Re: Satellite A300D - 15 c - external microphone does not work

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300D - 15 c with Vista 32 bit.

    Edit: The microphone is enabled of course, it is not cut and the level is set to max.

    Hello

    It looks more like a hardware problem, I mean a problem of external microphone jack what you think?

    Just a question;
    It is perhaps a silly question, but are you sure you used a right sleeve to 100%? Maybe you mixed the headphones with mic jack

  • Satellite P300-1This - Microphone does not work after installing Windows 7

    Hello world.

    At first, I'm sorry for my bad English, so I will say in no time.

    A few days ago, I removed a few programs, and I installed the new Windows 7 operating system. Everywhere I had to download the new drivers for the camera because they do not work. After you download the drivers of the camera, the camera become operative (YES!), but later worked for me, a built-in microphone was out of use. What may be of it with the cause and this driver to download and why the microphone not working?

    I can't talk with friends on Skype ;( Help me. I hope you know what I'm saying.

    Hello

    Do you really install any drivers after installing Windows 7? Maybe you have forgotten something and so it doesn t work.
    Micro is a part of webcam so be sure that driver webcam is properly installed and driver sound, you need to as well.

    After that, check the sound settings. Make sure that the Microphone is enabled and test it again with amp active microphone.

  • Y50 external microphone does not work do not

    Bought the Y50 because it is decent spec for video editing (which works well), but - can not get the external microphone to work.

    Tried a headphones/mic adapter.

    Tried all the different settings in Realtek HD Audio Manager

    I tried Control Panel / its parameters - this allows me to use the ' Mic in towards the front (black), even if it's on the side of the laptop - the volume indicator shows a signal comes from the microphone. The other "Microphone" device also shows that it works for the built-in microphones. I can type each microphone independently to see the answer in each Panel.

    But - I can't get any software on the laptop to record really any external microphone signal, what I need for the voice-over.

    The Installer 'Configure your speech recognition' "Assistant configuration of the Microphone" show a small volume entry but repeat myself "the computer did not hear you clearly.

    Update

    Feel a bit of a numpty - the microphone works now - whenever I tried to hear the recording of the test and I got the silence - that as a failure - I just needed to unplug the microphone from the socket to allow the speakers to play confused recording. Read white noise headphones - must deal separately with this!

    Thus, the headphone splitter adapter is the key.

    Hello

    Yes - as I posted in the update - separator solved the problem thanks.

  • T420s external microphone does not work

    I just bought a T420s, 4174-P5G Type, I want to use an external stereo microphone (Sony ECM-719) rather than the built-in microphone, but as soon as I plug the combined headphone/microphone jack, the microphone is recognized as helmet. Anyone has an idea how to do the external microphone works?

    The sound card is named 'Conexant HD SmartAudio 20672' and I think that I have the latest version of the driver installed correctly.

    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Windows XP and built-in microphone does not work

    I had reviewed similar topics, but I couldn't find a clear solution.

    My laptop is XP and has a built-in microphone.  I tried Skype and the microphone does not work.  It was not used in the past2 or 3 years, but it has been running at the same time.  Use Audacity for school work.  Can't do the part of speech recognition because I'm working with Office 2007 as it says XP and Office 2007 do not work.

    Any ideas to fix or am I destined for an external mic?  or would that even work?

    MB

    With respect to the built-in microphone, you may need to reinstall the audio drivers from the manufacturers Web site.

    As far as the webcam goes, as long as its compatible I guess it will work fine.

    Malware or virus infections can have harmful effects on a computer, even if they have been deleted. The only sure way to never remove infections from virus or malware is to reinstall Windows.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 MB microphone does not work on Windows XP

    Hi all.

    I buy a Satellite A200 - 1 MB and when I install Windows XP everything was ok except a little problem:
    The microphone does not work.

    I installed all the drivers correctly, but the problem is the same.
    I read on the internet that many owners A200 - 1 MB have the same problem.

    Is one know how I can fix the problem?
    Thank you

    It's very strange. I installed Windows XP Home SP2 on Satellite U300 edition. It's the same laptop fine but a bit smaller and in my case works cam and microphone. I tested it with Skype. The sound quality is not very good, but it works.

    Are you trying to test also with Skype? Did you check the sound options?

  • Satellite A210 (PSAEG) - Microphone does not work on Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello, the microphone does not work on windows 7 64-bit, the driver that I use is 64-bit Windows Vsta. The volume is implemented maximum and so is the amplification but no way to make it work with the software assistant camera Skype or toshiba.
    Can someone help me?

    Thank you

    Hi Largo09,

    Usually, you need to install the webcam driver and sound to get the microphone working. The microphone is a part of webcam

    As you wrote, Satellite A210 is not Windows 7 64 bit supported, so the only option you have the Vista 64 bit drivers

    In my opinion, you should check if the Microphone is turned on in Windows audio settings. There you can also activate the Microphone Amplifier, which can increase the volume of the microphone.
