The specifics depend on the installed operating system.

Go to Control Panel then Sound.

Select the Sounds tab at the top and you should see an image with a microphone that has a greencheckmark in the lower right hand corner. Just speak and you should see some activity in the group of horizontal bars to the right.  that is how it is done in Vista and Windows 7. Windows XP is pretty much the same.

Need internal microphone to talk to Cortana?

It would be simpler to use an internal microphone, but you can also use an external mike or gaming headset.

I am trying to make a video with Xsplit - but there is no sound. I have previously successfully made videos with Xsplit on the same computer, so I do not understand what is wrong - I am trying to test the internal microphone but cannot work out how to do that - I keep receiving instructions on speech recognition which is not what I want.
