Pls help. I bought new mic and my shit laptop doesnt load it while computer does
name of laptop is inspiron 3537, googling havent helped me, alot of people with this laptop have same problem but no solution
reply if you had/have same problem and how to fix this thx

EDIT: Solution if anyone ever occurs same problem
I bought this and mic works normally. Once you plug in usb you have to plug in both headphone and mic else it won't work. (e.g . you plug in mic in usb and headphone in laptop jack - headphone won't work)

A dedicated microphone? Does your laptop have a dedicated audio jack for that?

my laptop has only 1 jack and it looks like this

you see that little icon next to jack i have it like this and if i put mic in my sound doesnt work so i bought this
sound works and mic still doesnt load

this is how my microphone looks, but this doesnt matter, whatever mic i had it didnt work

Does it work if you don't use the splitter?

Well then I guess it's an audio jack which can only output audio.

I don't know exactly how splitters work but you might have the wrong type?

i tried 2 types and none of them worked

As far as I know a combi input can not be used by ONLY a dedicated microphone.
