So i got a new pair of in-ear headphones, this time with a microphone. I'm sure it would work PERFECTLY if i used the headphones with a phone. But.. can I use the microphone on the pc?

If I plug in the headphones in the pc, only the headphones work and the micrphone doesn't do anything.

So is there a way to activate it for pc?

It depends - most PC's would have a separate socket for headphones and microphone.

If yours combines them in a single jack then it'll probably only work with a phone. You can get splitters for this though, for example: Click here!

AWESOME! The only problem being: I live in Romania, and I never ordered off ebay before. So who know how big the transport fee is?

Well for that particular listing it's an extra £1.28 for postage to Romania.
