Follow these steps to test for an audio signal:

Press the Windows + W key.

Type Sound into the Search field.

Click Sound from the list of results.

The Sound window opens.

Click the Recording tab.

Right click an empty area of the Sound window.

Click Show Disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices .

To test a microphone, speak into it. To test line-in, send a signal from the source audio device (press play on the audio player). Look at the gray bars next to the device name on the recording tab:If the gray bars next to the device name change to green, this device is active and an audio signal is passing through the microphone or
