Thanks kráftéé for your suggestions!
I checked with brand new headset - the same.


Sounds like it's not the mic, but you may have a short of
some kind or ground loop in your headphone connection. If
the headphone connection is at the front of your machine,
a technician has to check it.

If it's a jack on the soundcard, you can remove the sound
card and take it to a technician without having to take
the whole computer over there.

You're welcome and good luck. Check if a new sound card isn't
cheaper than fixing yours!
Creative is basically OK and ultra-compatible although
perfectionists complain about the sound/specs.
M-Audio if you're a musician or have very good ears.
Turtle Beach is pretty good too if you can find one.
