Don't you see these as the low mic volume problem?

    if this mic is more than 6 or 8 inches from my mouth
    at normal speaking levels, it barely picks up my voice.

    the mic does not pick up my voice unless I put it
    right up on my mouth.

    I have to yell into my Dell provided microphone for anyone to hear
    me

    I seem to be unable to record anything with a microphone from SB.
    Only when I shout really hard I get a fuzzy little noise recorded

   I discovered that using the creative sound recorder I had to put
   the record level on max, select +20% gain in the mixer and put the
   mic 3 inches from my mouth or else it wouldnt pick up what i said.

   I don't want to -eat- this microphone!!!!

   I have my mic volume all the way up, the booster on, and its still
   way too quiet.  I had to practically put the mic in my mouth.

   When I plugged a mic into the front panel, the volume is so low
   that you have to scream.

   Do you know a way to record an outgoing message without "eating"
   the microphone?

   I have to scream into the microphone
