I assume that you want to configure your MIC for recording?

From your screenshots, it seems you are using a custom DSP config (it appears that epilog is not loaded), but you did not post a screenshot of your DSP config.

If the above is unintentional, then I suggest that you reinitialize the DSP, and then:

Unmute the AC97 Recording Level slider on the Recording page of kxmixer, and set level to 0 dB.
Configure the AC97 page as in your pic, except mute the Mic In slider.

Also, the AC97 In Level slider on the Ins and Outs page should be muted, unless you want to hear the MIC in your speakers (pre-recording).
