When I make a call from my Dell laptop, I always hear the other party but usually he doesn't hear me although sometimes he hears me well..I tried another headphone, it worked normally on my laptop.

well chances are you have a cheap headset plain sucks, so getting a replacement, something like what you tried and you know works would do the trick.

If not, make sure you plugging your microphone into the designated slot ( you didn't say if it's USB or regular headphone)
