    Hi,

    You headset have 5 contact jack. Most PCs use 3-contacts ones so your microphone just is not connected. You need to use 5-to-3+3 contact splitter and connect headset to both headphone and microphone jacks.

    Set it as headset (in whatever configuration software you have, i.e. realtek hd audio manager or realtek audio console or dell audio or hp audio or waves maxxaudio pro), then lightly tap your headset mic.

    If the signal meter jumps, then your headset mic is working.
