You must install the actual sound manager software. Just the driver is no good. You need something like Realtek HD manager or the like, You need the Audio package, with an Installer, install as Administrator too.
go to link below and download and install the Audio section again. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=99978&lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=96403&taskId=135
The most common fix to a problem like this is to remove the device in the device manager and then re-boot the computer. But if you are not seeing the mic in the device manager then this will not work. You will need to try and re-install the notebook drivers/software and see if that gets the microphone back again.

These drivers are for the Presario 700 series notebook with Windows XP installed.
If that does not work the you might want to try removing the audio device in the device manager and then re-boot the computer. Sometimes the mic is part of the audio device as one function and this might bring the mic back.
You can also trying to use the add hardware function in the control panel and see if Windows recognizes the mic and re-installs it but I am not positive that will work.
