thanks for the quick reply!
yeah it was working on xp before i installed W7 so i think its the drivers, however i can't find anything better, i saw the unofficial soundblaster drivers for W7 but it didnt say anything about making the microphone work?
i took some screens of my settings maybe you can see whats wrong better this way
says its working here
then the settings
more settings
you can see the top is just another microphone thats unavailable
i tried to get that and the one on the bottom so you could see them all
