Using A Microphone - HP Pavilion 364 Quick Start Manual

Using a Microphone

Your HP Pavilion home PC comes with one
microphone connector in the back of the PC.
Your computer may have another microphone
connector in the front of the PC under the access
door. Only one microphone connector works
at a time. The back connector is already set up
to work. For PCs with the multi-channel audio
speakers option, the microphone connector in the
front of the PC, if present, is ready to use; see
"To use the microphone with multi-channel audio"
on page 26.
If you would prefer to connect a microphone
to the front of your PC, follow this procedure
to select the working microphone:
Note:
If you connect your microphone to the back of your
PC, you do not need to perform this procedure.
