| Win 7 Pro x64/Win Server 2008 R2 625 posts Canada | Please fill out your system specs, so that we have an idea of what hardware you have. It's much easier to help that way. It's probably a setting in your audio driver control panel. Do you have front audio ports with a mic plugged in to them? Sometimes doing that will shut off the rear ones. A little more detail is needed for a better answer. Sorry. |

| 7 6 posts | Sorry. I have a front mic jack too, this works fine. It is empty at the moment. I can survive with that one working but I need to stretch a VGA cable.

| Win 7 Pro x64/Win Server 2008 R2 625 posts Canada | Okay, that's a bit more to work on. HD audio usually has a jack detection feature, and can often be configured to route different audio to different spots. If you open your audio control panel in Control Panel, it might look something like this:  Mine is a Realtek driver. I can separate the Mic jacks, or tie them together if I want to, or I can disable either one. I don't use my rear one, so I have it turned off. You should have something similar in your machine. Snoop around in your Control Panel and have a look. It's probably working fine, just disabled right now. Post back if you still have some trouble. |

| Windows 7 3 posts | Try 'Manage Audio Devices' then click on the tab 'Recording' You should see two microphones - One says 'Default Device' - the other says 'Currently unavailable' (if this is not the case then "Right Click" on the microphone and ensure both 'Show Disabled Devices' and 'Show Disconnected Devices' are ticked) 'Right Click' on the microphone which says 'Currently unavailable' and select 'Enable' The basic system cannot deal with two microphones active simultaneously and will disable the other microphone. |

| Windows 7, 64 bit Home SP1, Win 8 Pro 64 bit 3,769 posts Citrus Co, FL | Do you have the same PC, a Dell Dimension 5150 (or E510 which is the same)? Dell only officially supports Vista 32 bits (will work for Windows 7 32 bits) with drivers for this model. I used to do a lot of support on the Dell forum and we found that only Dell supplied SigmaTel drivers would work properly. Any other drivers are iffy. Many on the Dell forum with these models reported installing a sound card that was Win 7 compatible and using that. |

| MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1 4 posts USA Salem OR | reply 2 months ago i had windows 7 ultimate 32-bit and everything worked fine. The mic worked good in the back panel. the audio jacks worked on both front and back panels, i could even connect two headphones at once and it would work fine... I didn't have any of the realtek sound cards or softwares or others. i just used the sound that my computer already had. Two weeks ago my dad reinstalled the computer to windows 7 ultimate 64-bit he did not change anything inside the computer, he didnt even open it. an d after the reinstallization to 64-bit my audio jack only works in the back panel and the mic jack doesnt work at all.
