Check that both 'Playback and Recording' show your sound card. What brand is your MOBO? Hopefully 'Mute' isn't ticked.

In Device Manager everything looks good? Have you tried installing the manufacturer's latest drivers (not the native XP ones)?

If you're getting the same problem on other PCs then it's looking like the actual mic is the problem.

Also, don't want to state the obvious but you are plugging it into the right jack aren't you?

Have you got a sound card installed as well as the onboard chip?

It appears the latest sound drivers are 5.12.01.3663 dated 5.25.2004. Is this what you are running?

Have you tried it with any other software? Play around with Windows Sound Recorder to see if you can record from mic input.
