    Will it not pick up anything, or is it just set so it does not play what it picks up?

    come on, describe your problem, we are no clairvoyants.

    What program do you use to record the audio. How do you know that your mic is turned on? Have you tried your soundcard tool? Have you tried an external mic, do you use an external or internal mic? ...
