MIC always on.

Hello everyone,
My mic seems to be on all the time, I can hear myself in my speakers. I am
running Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit. I have tried to find the mic input in
the volume mixer but it does not show up there. I have even went into the mic
properties and put the mic a 0 and can still hear myself. Any input would be
nice.

Thank you for your time.

Tried re-plugging the mike? Take out then put back.

If machine is easy to reach plug it in only when needed?

If mike is not too fancy buy another, with a switch.

You can mute the mic so as to only have it work through applications; and not have it annoyingly broadcasting through your speakers all the time.
