The mic on my apple standard headphones (also tried with Beats Studio integrated mic) doesn't work on the pc I built. I bought a 2 male to 1 female audio jack, and when i make one of the inputs mic and the other headphone, only one of the sides outputs sound and the mic still doesn't work. It sounds staticky and my friend thinks it sounds like a fan inside my computer. I'm using the realtek audio driver. I was wondering if I forgot to plug in a certain cable inside the computer or if its possibly a faulty motherboard? My specs are Motherboard: Z87X-UDH3, intel i5 3750k, and Nvidia GTX 760. I can provide more specs/information if needed. I've tried re-installing Realtek, making the headphone labeled "line-in" instead of "microphone", etc. but nothing seems to work. The sound works in my headphones but not the integrated mic.
Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.
