How to connect microphone to computer

[Beelo2]

Hi, I have an acer aspire E 15 laptop that only has 1 audio jack that is supposed to be used for both microphones and headphones but when I connect my Sony F-V100 microphone it recognizes it as a headphone (output) instead of a microphone (line in). How can I fix this?

You might need an adapter like http/www.amazon.co.uk/Startech-com-3-5mm-Headset-Splitter-Adapter/dp/B004SP0WAQ
