    you can go to start/run and type "dxdiag".. i think you will find "directplay" on the "network" tab..
     
    reinstalling directx 9c might help.. you can easily find that by looking at the "microsoft" "downloads" page..
     

    also, you need to have the proper driver installed for whatever you use for sound, either a sound card or integrated sound.. and you need to have the mic plugged into the proper plug..

    you can go to start/control panel/"system"/device manager, and look to see if your sound device looks ok, from there..

    YOu can also try opening your sound recorder too. XP and windows going way back to 9x series still have this program, and also the best program to use to test your microphone.
