Hey, I've got an audigy2 soundcard in my computer, and someone told me
that i can't use my dynamic mic straight in to the microphone port on
account of a 3V DC bias that'd cause problems with dynamic mics but is
needed for condensers. now, keeping in mind i have no idea what he's
talking about, is there any ways to fix this?

The voltage is applied through a current-limiting resistor. Given the low
audio quality of the mic input circuitry on Sound Blaster sound cards, it
probably won't cause many more significant additional problems. The voltage
is too low to be meaningful or helpful to just about all quality condenser
mics.
