Microphone muting in Vista

I seem to be having a problem muting my microphone. I have it plugged into
the normal mic jack, but when I open my volume mixer, where I expected the
microphone to show up, it was not there to allow me to mute it. I do not
want to have to unplug it every time since the jack is in the back of my unit.

i'm having the same problem here. ive tried to find how to mute mic for 3
days, i still cant find it. anyone know where to mute it coz i always here my
own voice and i cant turn the volume up, plz help.

I bought windows vista and my mic is mute . My mic is inside my monitor and
not speakers . Icant hear nobody and vice versa
