Search for sound in start, when you have found it open it and go to recording tab. Find microphone and right click>properties>levels and increase microphone boost to +10 to +20 dB and try it again.

Maybe the mic has some kind of controller on the cable or close to the mic. Something like this

Or if you have realtek HD audio manager installed try something around there

Have you tried testing it out on a different PC?
