Is this type of headset compatible?

If not, how can I get a good sounding microphone/headphone combo into the laptop?

 

If no combo is possible - will it take a USB based microphone and I'd use headphones separately?

 

Thanks

What is your HP Stream, I believe it has headphones/microphone combo port. From the link, it has

 

          Dual plugs - easy to use: Uses two 3. 5mm plugs, one for the microphone, one for the headphones, perfect for computers with separate connections for each.

 

That means you have to get an adapter to combine two pink and green in one. For example

You can buy an headsets with headphones/microphone combo plug OR USB headsets for example:

Thanks for the speedy reply

 

It's this laptop https://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-Stream-14-ax000na-14-inch-Laptop/dp/B01LZE0B5Z

 

Will this USB headset work in a simple plug and play setup?

I want to mute the on board built in mic on the laptop and use the mic on the headset instead

 

Is this possible?

 

Will i need to do anything in Settings?

 

Thanks
