I'm at my wit's end!

I have a USB headset that I used to use on my system fine. Recently I started having a problem where the mic doesn't work, but the headphone portion of the headset works. I've eliminated the possibility of the headset being broken as it works fine on my laptop.

I just did a fresh install of Windows and the problem still persists :( I flashed the bios as well to make sure it wasn't something there. Under the sounds and audio devices it appears to be selected fine, yet it still doesn't work.

I've tried different USB ports as well.

Anyone have any input as to what might be going wrong? About to toss the system off of my balcony!

Any help is appreciated. Thanks :)
