I've an ASUS K42JP. I disabled the microphone device, and I have got the following message:
Your microphone device has been removed
How can I re-enabled the microphone? It is an internal one.

1What operating system is this? Is it an internal microphone? Please edit your post here superuser.com/posts/472218/edit– DaveCommented Sep 10, 2012 at 7:35

Can you also confirm if you disabled the microphone manually and if so, how.– DaveCommented Sep 10, 2012 at 10:08

Enable it in device manager (that is, assuming you're on Windows).
Click Start (windows icon) right click on my Computer and select manage.
From the window on the left, click device manager.
(Or: click Start button, write 'device' in the Search area, then select 'Device Manager')
Locate your microphone in the list, right click on it and enable.
EDIT
Another suggestion is
- Open the Sound window,
- Click on the Recording tab, and then right-click in the space under the last recording device and click "Show Disabled Devices."
- You should now be able to see the option to enable it again

1Thanks for your answer but it doesn't work: There is no MICROPHONE in that list. I'd UPDATE the sound device but it doesn't work either. Please help me– MahdiCommented Sep 10, 2012 at 9:43

1Writing in capitals doesn't help - I can read both lower case as well as upper and like most people, prefer lower. I will have another look into this for you.– DaveCommented Sep 10, 2012 at 10:02
