How can I connect a microphone to my PC?

I have a regular microphone I'd like to connect to my PC. The only problem is, the mic plug is too big for the one on my PC.

This is for an online Karaoke hobby of mine (It's not for any sort of professional music recording).

I'd just like to find a way to be able to connect my microphone to the PC (if there are any extensions out there I'd need).

Thanks in advance for your help!

Answers:
yes they make adapters to do that try radio shack
just buy a reducer that takes it from the 1/4" jack on the microphone to the 1/8 jack on your computer.
unfortunatly if there is a adaptor then it will cost WAY more then a PC mic you can find some nice ones if you try a quality place like futureshop or you know a good place :D
Go to radio shack or a store like that and get a connection for the computer, it's just an end of the plug that is smaller.
Run off to Radio Shack and buy the adapter. Bring that microphone with you, and show the nice sales person. But look at the other end of that adapter, and look at PC Microphones that they sell to be sure.

Good luck and Happy Computing!
Mics for PCs are CHEAP! Just go out and buy one to go with your PC. I have headphones with a mic on them. They only cost me $15. That's NOT that much money. ;)
Their are no drivers for a Mic. All you need is to plug the mic into the computer. And open a program that will alow you to record. Windows Xp, Vista comes with a program already under the Asceries list. This is assuming that the Mic is intened for the PC. If not then you are out of luck unless you can find a plug adaptor.
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...
