Someone please help me! Problem is my mic is too quite. It's a normal 3.5mm jack mic, which I obviously plug into the mic hole. I'm using audacity to record through the mic. Recording device in Preferences in Audacity is set to 'Microphone' (obviously). I'm using vista ultimate x64, in control panel>sound>recording>microphone>properties, in the levels tabs the mic volume is set to 100 and mic boost at 0 (i dont want to use gain). But with this setting the mic still seems to be very quite in Audacity, it is picking up the sound but at a really low level. I was able to record things a while back with the same mic, under same vista version but only difference now is the hardward has changed. I have googled around and nothing has helped!
