Using a combo of microphone and headphone with one jack on a computer

[_n3x0n_]

I have a computer not laptop and i want to buy a new headphones, but they have only 1 jack for the mic and headphone, so can I plug it in the hole for the audio jack and still use the mic and headphone or i need to get something or put in some kind of hole on my computer ?

You need to buy an adapter that splits the audio and mic. One end should have the 2,5mm jack (4 rings), the other end should have 2 x 3,5mm jack, one for mic and one for audio.
