    My headset won't work for Vista. I have a laptop internal mic. It's working fine, but my headset (it's not USB).

    So what do I do? D:

    Hmmm... vista strikes again. I think I help you out. =]

    1. Make sure your headset is in the mic jack, not the headset jack (common mistake) xD.

    2. It could be that your audio drivers are out of date. Try going to Start --> Control Panel --> System & Maintenance --> System -- > Device Manager --> Sound, video, and game controllers --> Find your sound card from the list (click on the + to expand) --> Right-click on the sound card and click something similar to "Update Driver Software".

    3. If possible, test to see if your jack mic works on another computer or device.
