headset

Hello!

I am not sure if this question fits on this site :S if it doesn't please let me know and i remove it :)

well... here is my problem

I just got a steel series headset for christmas(yay!) and i quickly plugged it into my MacBook Pro. The audio output works fine, but i am having issues with the audio input :( i had these kinds of problems before and i think my mac may be broken :(

but then i saw this post: http://www.biloca.com/blog/?p=25 and they talked about some power issues to the microphone on the Mac Mini... I did not quite get what they were discussing so i have a simple question :)

Do any of you have an idea why my microphone doesn't work? Please help! :)

Best Regards Kristian
