Hello. Dell does not support Win10 in the XPS L702x model, so did you install a driver meant for an earlier operating system, using compatibility mode?
If not, try this and see if it helps. Download the Win 7 or Win8 Realtek audio driver for the XPS L702x.
1. Download and save the audio driver to your desktop or any convenient location on the hard drive.
2. Double click on the new folder to extract (unzip) the driver files.
3. The extractor wizard will create a new folder for the driver files. It will be at "c:\dell\drivers\xxxxxx". Write down the exact location that the wizard creates.
4. If the driver begins to install automatically, halt (cancel) the installation.
5. Browse to the driver files on the hard drive (the location you wrote down).
6. Find the "setup.exe" file.
7. Right click on setup.exe to open the context menu.
8. Select the Properties.
9. Select the Compatibility tab.
10. Check the box "run this program in compatibility mode for"... Win7 or 8, depending on which driver you are installing.
Doing that might get the mic working.
