To select which microphone you want to use in Windows 8, swipe the right side of the screen on the desktop or put your mouse in the bottom right hand corner. A menu with 5 icons should appear; select the gear that says "Settings". Then Click on "Control Panel". When the control panel windows appears select "Hardware and Sound". In the sub menu that appears select the "Sound" section. A small windows should appear. Select the "Recording" Tab at the top of the window. You should see a list of microphones that are connected to your computer. Select the one you want, click "Set Default" and click "OK". Exit out of the control panel and the microphone should record your sound.

Does a PC have a buit in mic?

Yes and no. Your computer is the one that has to have a microphone. Since Windows is an operating system, that means that it is software. A microphone is a hardware thing, so it has nothing to do with Windows 7. Windows 7 does have a program to record sound from a microphone built into it. It is available by typing record in the start menu.
