Hi

 

Not all HP computers have built-in, or internal, microphones

 

Step 1

Consult your HP user manual and look for "internal microphone" on the laptop pictures, which display the location of buttons, speakers and other components. If you have an internal microphone, it should be depicted.

Step 2

Look at the top of your LCD for a tiny hole, which will be labeled with "mic" or a small graphic of a microphone.

If you have an integrated camera at the top of the display, then your microphone is located to the side(s) of the camera. All HP laptops with an integrated camera also have internal microphones near the webcam.

Step 3

Look along the bottom of the LCD, near the hinges, for a small hole labeled "mic" or with a microphone icon. If you still cannot locate an internal microphone, then you probably do not have one.

Let us know how it goes!
