Answer 1

Unfortunately I need more information before I can properly answer your question. Feel free to contact me using IM (see profile) if you need an instant response.

What problems are you having? Have you tried connecting it yet?

Generally speaking headsets are the same. If the back of your computer is colour coded, it's usually quite simple.
Red goes into the red slot (mic), and green goes into the green. (Usually you'll have to unplug your speakers temporarily if you want to hear through them.)

Or you can just not connect the green one, and listen to your friend through your speakers.

Thanks,
Ken

you have two way to set
first: double click the speaker icon on the system tray( bootom right corner of your desktop) click properties then check the box 'microphone' and 'vollum control' thn 'ok'
second way:
check at the back of you computer audio output socket and microphone inpput socket both of them are female socket. when you enter them accoding to the color matching or matching with the picture printed on board an auto responsive window will be come up and you can set them from there. change the radio button to 'headset'. cheers

I have a dell--and it comes with 3 'hidden' plugs up front.
