Windows 7: Audio stops working when using microphone!

CosminWTF · 18 Feb 2011

Hello guys !
I have a problem for 2 years , my audio stops working when i plugin and use the microphone , it's really annoying me , when i play games , when i talk on skype , etc.. it just randomly stops after an amount of time! My motherboard is Intel DP55WB and i use Realtek audio drivers. I tried many stuff to fix it but it's no use, nothing works.
Please , I really need your help.

What happens if you use the Rear mic connection instead of the front panel mic connection? If you haven't tried this, do it as there may be some type of connection problem either in the motherboard audio connector or the cabling or connector on the front panel of the case. Also, disconnect the front panel audio cable (unplug it from the motherboard) and then use the rear Mic jack and see if it makes a difference.

I have an Intel DP35DP motherboard and had a problem with the front panel audio on the PC I built and it turned out to be a problem with the front panel headphone/mic I/O board in my case.

I use only the rear mic connection because i don't have the front panel mic connection on my carcass.

EDIT : I'll try to see if there are some problems in the cabling.

try this:

control panel >> hardware and sound >> sound >> communications tab >> set to 'do nothing'
