    Well the classic test since windows 95 for me was the sound recorder app in windows. According to google it does have one. Volume could be set to 0 on it though.

    Most notebooks the mic is in the top of the screen just a pin hole.

    Check your sound control panel. If there is one, the settings will be there and will list the on-board device.
