Lookin' for some assistance

[jrscsivic]

This could be small but need help..
-Have server setup on a WIN 2003 box
-Have client setup on a WIN XP box - playing EQ2
-External IP works - had someone in game test - did not have microphone at this time
-Music was constantly playing in his ear..but he logged in and I could hear him successfully thru speakers
-Changed to PUSH to Talk and tested on local server
-After changing to PUSH to Talk, I only get music when I push the key as opposed to constantly.
-Plugged mic in just about every configuration I could think of, but did not hear myself on test box..but heard music

-Question: Assuming I have a bad mic (which I'm not sure if this is just user error - hopefully), am I supposed to hear the music when I push key or do I have something setup wrong(thinking speakers to close to mic, but do not have mic plugged in when this happens)..Please inform

Thank you in advance

sounds to me like in your operating systems sound propertys you have the "what you hear checked" uncheck it and check the mic and mic booster as your recording source
