Default PC wont detect mic?

Why wont my PC detect a mic when I plug it in? My guitar teacher lent me one so that I could record myself playing guitar (like chords) so that I could practice over them. But no matter what I plug in the mic jack nothing happens.

no, when I go to accessories> sound recorder, it says an audio recording device cannot be found. I have tried plugging in my guitar>amp>computer, that didnt work, and neither did mic>PC. I dont see why its not detecting it.

i dont know, the jacks were built in when I got it. Is it possible that its because I dont have the drivers? Because I never installed any when I went to Vista, since everything worked automatically

Yes entirely possible. Link to your PC's specs?

It now detects that I have a device, but when I plug something in, it dosnt detect any noise. I yelled into the mic and nothing happened. So I guess its the cable or something

definately the cable, I found some old POS mic, plugged it in and it worked.
