I am using Ear Force Recon Turtlebeaches, sound comes through well, but the mic doesn't go through. The mic can be unplugged from the headphones. All that comes through as a mic option is a mic that is in the computer itself.
 
Solution
It sounds like the issue isn't the headset/mic, but the sound card.

I would suggest you uninstall, and then reinstall, the drivers for your sound card.

If the problem still isn't resolved, you may need to use a different sound card. You can look into a USB sound card, an internal sound card, or an external solution.
