Using a Microphone

Your PC comes with one microphone connector in the back of the PC. Some models have a second microphone connector in the front of the PC. Only one microphone connector works at a time, and the back connector is ready to use unless you have the multi-channel audio speakers option. For PCs with the multi-channel audio speakers option, the microphone connector in the front of the PC, if present, is ready to use.

To use a microphone connected to the front of your PC (select models only), select the working microphone.

NOTE: If you connect your microphone to the back of your PC, you do not need to perform this procedure.
