the headphones are Sennheiser Hd461i and they have only 1 wire for both audio and mic. My pc has 2 slots separate for mic and audio so if i plug the headphones into the pc's audio slot is there a way or any connector to use the microphone somehow?
 
You'll want an audio/mic splitter, something along the lines of this. May be cheaper options available, this is just the first result off Google.
