What the hell is wrong with my headset?

Ok, so I have one of these headsets that has headphones + a mic combined, anyways, there is a green cable for the headphones, and a red one for the mic, there are 2, well, holes in the case where you plug em in, When I plug in the green one, headphones work fine, then I connect the red one to the hole next to it, but the mic doesn't seem to work at all, I have tried switching places, and still doesn't work, all drivers are up to date and I tried like 3 pairs of headsets.

Did you consider looking at the back of the PC tower and try plugging in both cords to the Audio/Mic jacks back there? It might work.

Don't think there are any there, the two " holes " ( don't even know what to call them ) are in the front of the tower, and even if there were any in the back, the headset's wire would be too short to even reach me.

Not solved yet ._.

Did you check if the headset isin't split half?

I know it sounds stupid

But have you tried checking youir skype settings?
might be that you've selected the wrong mic, thus, you don't hear anything from it

Hmm, best answer I could come up with is that maybe you showed the mic up in your ass, maybe that is why it ain't working as it should?

Does the mic display at all on "Recording Devices" tab of sounds? :P

Take a picture of the wires and post it here. I can't be bothered to read a comma,after,every,word.

I plug my red and green in the back of my PC. My front jacks can't grab the cables.

This is why I use Headphones and Mics separately
