Windows PC/Laptop built-in speaker stops working after connecting the microphone, what should I do?

If the built-in speaker of your Windows PC/Laptop stops working after connecting the microphone to your computer,  relax, take a deep breath, then please note the following points:

  1. Install the Realtek HD Audio Manager: 
  2. This free software will help you select what happens to the microphone when it’s connected through the headphone jack, like in the image below Windows PC/Laptop built-in speaker stops working after connecting the microphone, what should I do? Select “Mic In” like in the image then click on the “Ok” button. After doing this, the microphone should be able to work independently of the built-in microphone. If this doesn’t help, then the next point will be the answer.

  3. Using a USB Soundcard:

Connecting the microphone through the USB port of your Windows PC/Laptop rather than the headphone port is another way of allowing the external microphone to function independently of the computer’s built-in speaker.

However, the PowerDeWise microphone has a 3.5mm jack adapter, therefore, you’ll need a 3.5 mm headphone and Mic females to male TypeC USB male end USB Soundcard, which allows you to connect the microphone to your device’s USB port.

To buy a USB Soundcard now, without having to wait for us to send it or to receive it faster than standard delivery speed, follow the link below:

Furthermore, the USB Soundcard like all USB Adapters has a 3.5mm TRS female microphone port so you’ll need to connect the microphone to the TRRS to TRS (4 to 3 Pin) Adapter. The male end of the TRRS to TRS (4 to 3 Pin) Adapter will be the end going into the USB Soundcard. In other words, the connection is PowerDeWise Lav Mic > TRRS to TRS (4 to 3 Pin) Adapter > USB Soundcard > Windows PC/laptop
