Install the software on your computer. If even on the manufacturer's website you could not find the software, download, for example, the Skype program and install it on your computer.

From the menu, select Open Volume Mixer. Next, in the window that appears, see if the microphone is turned on. To turn on the microphone in Windows 7, you just need to drag the volume slider up. In Windows XP, uncheck the box and drag the slider up.

In the case of Skype, you need to look for sound settings, depending on its version. Usually you need to select "Settings", then go to the sound settings. The Sound Settings window appears. If one microphone is connected to the computer, then nothing needs to be changed. Just find the volume scale in the window. Now drag the slider to the desired position to adjust the sound.
