Not that it helps but you do not have the driver for the onboard audio installed or it would show as such instead of showing as "high definition audio device". You will probably need to use the onboard one - set it as default, plug in a mic, and check again. Last edited: Jul 3, Maybe put your mic closer to you? I don't know.

When you plug in the mic do you see any response from the meter in settings? In reply to eddieb-'s post on December 19,
