Do your headphones have dual connections or a single 4 pole connection? If a single, you need a converter. If dual, make sure you are using the right ports.

You need to make sure that your motherboard has a mic input rather than line-in (read the manual). Most mics that have 2 ports will only work when power is supplied through the mic connector.
