there are sensitive models that can record even 20-25 meters.. I bought one and add a mixer/amplifier to record bad speeches from neighbours ;D :D

and connect it to the dvr card with sound support..

that will be useful I think ;)

Pretty much any dynamic microphone will have plenty of output to drive a PC sound card. I would stay clear of condenser microphones unless they have an internal preamp (many take a battery to bias the microphone but, without an actual preamp, don't have enough output).

Maplins have a good range of inexpensive mics if you want to poke and prod before purchase. :y
