I can't get an external microphone to work on my HP Pavillion dv7 laptop. I have read through most of the posts and nothing has helped. However, I haven't seen anyone who has had my exact experience. When I plug in either of two external microphones, one a single mike and the other connected to a headset, I can record but it is recording with the built-in microphone, not recognizing that anything is plugged in. The reason I am sure of this is because if I tap lightly on the mike, there is little or no reponse on the vertical bars in the Sound Recorder program. But if I gently tap with my fingernail anywhere on the computer frame, the bars light up right to the top. Help anyone? Thanx.
