Solve : Can't get microphone to work?

1.	Solve : Can't get microphone to work?
Answer» Hello, I bought a new microphone for my computer to hopefully get it to work so I'd be able to communicate with others when needed. The sound on my computer works, I plug everything in the right areas but it never DETECTS my voice, if I have music on THOUGH it records the music coming through the headphones but it can not detect sound in the area I am in, anyone know what I'm doing wrong or how to fix it?ARe you sure the MIC isn't muted?You may also need to enable a microphone booster feature in your sound software. Here's a SCREEN shot of a sound control panel in my system: If you don't have that box checked, the mic is worthless.
