    does your speakers have a jack on 1 of them to allow using headphnes thru them instead of thru onboard connector

    can you try them on another computer with built in sound not pci card to see if does same thing. what is the chipset & do you have the latest drivers. can you try another mic??

    are you running both onboard sound & a pci soundcard & if so why. disable the onboard sound thru the bios as probably why you are getting feedback from the mic to the headphones

    if multimedia is present in control panel, see what the preferred recording device is
