I am having troubles getting my mic/headset to do anything. Ive tried changing every setting that I see but nothing seems to be working. I have a Creative SB X-FI Sound card and I am using the Line In/Digital I/O/Mic In port for my Mic and the Line Out1 for my headset.
View 5 RepliesI have a Razer Carcharias gaming headset. It has always worked properly and very well. Now today for some reason the mic on it has decided to stop working. I've checked my sound levels and my boost option, and they are all turned all the way up.
So my question to you is, what should I do next to get this working again? I run my own ventrilo server, so its kind of dumb to do that if I can't even talk on it
1) Headset plugged into front jacks is not working and it looks like my PC hasn't even sensed the headset bcos I expected it to it ask me about what I have plugged into the jack if it was not sure.
2) Rear speakers are working fine for playbacks. Rear jack microphone is working for recording but the issue is the audio being recorded cannot be heard from speakers. After I stop recording I can play and hear the recording but not while I am recording it.
Has someone faced this and has some solutions for me? Let me make it clear that same hardware works absolutely fine when the OS was XP. I had a fresh Vista install couple of days back on hardware with Intel motherboard, Intel core 2 duo 946GZ Express chipset. I have every possible (also all optional) latest update for the OS. I have installed latest drivers meant for Vista (audio and graphics accelerators) downloaded and installed yesterday from Intel site.
I have a headset (mic & earphone). I used it on my old system and it worked fine, but now that I've upgraded to Vista x64 it seems to not work. I'm wondering if maybe there is a setting or something that I have missed somewhere?
The problem: I can hear sound coming from it...so no problems there. The sound quality is great just like before..now then, the problem is that the mic seems to not work anymore. No one can hear me and I've tried testing by recording myself and it doesn't play back anything either. I also tried hooking it back up to my old PC and it worked fine...so its definitely a software problem of some sort..
I see to be having a rather odd problem with my Vista, Headset Mic, and Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS card. Ive searched and searched for a solution to this problem on this board but nothing seems to working.here's my deal:I have the correct drivers installed for my Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS card.I am able to hear the Mic on my headset loud and clear on both headphones and speakers. This is the weird part. Everything says its connected and working, and yet, STEAM won't detect anything coming from my mic and neither will Sound Recorder in Vista. I can hear the mic perfectly when I un-mute it in playback, but for some really weird reason,none of the software I try to use it with can detect the sound when I speak into it when it can all be heard clearly I have the latest sound blaster drivers for my card and even installed the new beta one for this model and still no luck.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am posting from work, but should have enough information for you guys for a start. I just got a new computer on Friday, and have been having some problems with sound. I have gone to the Asus sight and downloaded the drivers again for the motherboard, and am using onboard sound. I don't recall the exact specifics, but its onboard Realtek. Sound works fine from my speakers, but I have not been able to get the computer to recognize just a standard headset that I was using with my other computer that same day, so I know the headset is working. My setup is Does anyone have any suggestions that would enable my computer to recognize when the headphones are plugged in so that I may use Ventrilo and listen to music?
View 4 Replies View Relatedso I'm running a MSI 790x Plat and Windows Vista x64 everything is plugged in correctly according the the manual, and I have all of my drivers updated, but it still doesnt recognize the headset or head phones for that matter. This headset works on other computers so i know its not the headset. I've asked around and people have told me i might need to enable it in the BIOS, but I've looked around and i don't know how to find it there. So I guess what im asking is if anyone can help me find the setting within the BIOS where i can enable it, or do i have to do something else.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got a new computer with Vista. I'm trying to get a headset that I used on my old computer to work. The headset is a free one that came with some language learning software so there's no driver. In the sound manager, Vista detects the microphone as being plugged in - as a "Microphone/Line In - SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC", but no program notices any sound coming from it. It is set as the default microphone and it's enabled. It works on my old computer still.

I then downloaded the drivers from the creative website for windows 32bit and restarted. Still no mic i checked the settings in the sound and nothing is muted and all bars are at high. I can hear everyone but no one can hear me.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy college aged daughter's laptop formerly worked fine but now has odd networking issues which prevent the system from browsing the internet. The system correctly obtains a DHCP address and is able to ping by name, can correctly run AIM and Microsoft Sidebar but still can not connect the IE7.0 Browser to the internet.
I have read a ton of links here within the Network and Sharing group but I haven't seen anything quite like this before. Even though the I know better, I still went through the exercise of testing for DNS issues as well as the often suggested MTU test but there weren't any issues. I have completely shut off the Microsoft Firewall to no avail. The system came with a free trial of Norton Internet Security but after it expired, I loaded a Symantec/Norton Antivirus (NAV 10.1) and did a complete virus scan which produced nothing. I also did a full spyware scan which also didn't locate any serious malware......
I am using a windows Vista 32 bit home premium notebook computer for which the wireless network detection has stopped working. I updated the driver for the built in wireless card with out any results. I also tried a plug in wireless card which windows detected and said was working properly and this did not work either. This leaves me to believe that something is wrong with the OS. I can get on the internet via dialup modem and also by the ethernet connection with a DSL modem. I have been to several hotspots that I know have wifi and no networks show up. All critical windows updates have been installed.
View 9 Replies View RelatedLately when I've tried looking at different folders and files on my hard drives I keep getting "Windows Explorer has stopped working and will restart." It's driving me nuts, I can barely do anything.
Also, same thing with Internet Explorer...I'm getting real sick of Vista's shoddiness..
By now it should be obvious that, under the Vista operating system, I have Home Premium, there is a severe overall, general "has stopped working" problem.
Thus far I've experienced:
"Internet Explorer has stopped working"
"Windows Explorer has stopped working"
"Word has stopped working"
"Sherlock Holmes Nemesis (Adventure Company) has stopped working"
"Outlook has stopped working"
"Acid 4.0 (Sony) has stopped working"
"Acid 6.0 (Sony) has stopped working"
"Sound Forge (Sony) has stopped working"
Is it not obvious by now that Vista has a problem, maybe a compatability problem, with everything from Internet Explorer and Microsoft Word to third party programs which cause programs, as I mentioned, even programs made by Microsoft, to "stop working"? Is there no an overall "stopped working" patch or something that Microsoft has released by now?...............
All of a sudden some of my programs stopped working, for example catalyst control center is supposed to start as soon as vista starts, but now it gives me an error like:
"CCC.exe has stopped working"
Same with some others...
Yes i ran AVG, i ran malware, and superantispyware, none of them finds anything.
I cant even load daemon tools now, it gives me some error: "Engine loading was failed", cant uninstall it, it gives me another error, and some of the programs like netlimiter if i start them from my objectdock dock they automaticly stop working, only when i start them from the normal .exe they dont crash.
I installed IE8 a couple of weeks ago, and it totally messed up my email. I went back to IE7. I tried it again today after getting a Windows Update labelled "Important". As it said that it was "Windows IE8 for Vista", I thought it was worth trying. Wrong! The bugs are not worked out It changed my home page to "Road Runner", despite the fact that my carrier is Verizon! I once again went back to IE7. I will not try IE8 again until I read somewhere on here that the bugs have been worked out!

View 6 Replies View Relateddont give me any cds or hardcopies or anything, and me being stupid failed to make backup disks prior to this problem. well anyways the last few weeks my computer has been running less and less stable, it was at a point where i could barely run my computer i kept getting the windows explorer has stopped working problem. after a ton of research and tweaking i was able to fix that problem but now since then my computer has been failing to load shortcuts, constantly gets random <operation name> has stopped working messages, and my firefox experience has greatly diminished.
I am almost 100% this is a system files problem, so i tried to run the sfc and it gets to 3% validation then stops and says it cannot continue, it doesnt say why it just stops. Ive run ChkDisk several times, defragged, ran registry cleaners adware and virus scanners so many times my head is going to fall off. other things that have happened include, unable to uninstall programs, World of Warcraft became corrupted, cannot use the find function in firefox (Ctrl+F: it makes firefox stop responding) other than these things vista runs efficient and well its just these errors keep popping up.
I've had this problem quite a few times with Vista 64 now and some of my friends did as well. IE 32bit or any other browser will not work. windows live messenger, video games etc, nothing works except for IE 64bit. restoring to the last windows update always fixed it but now Im facing a new situation. I installed a new version of Vista Ultimate x64, this time with SP1 from the start and I had this problem from the very begining so I can't really use system restore.
tried reinstalling, googled for hours, searched this forums for a few more hours and I couldn't find anything for this specific problem. tried to Reset IE, reinstall IE, /renew and /release ipconfig as admin, nothing works.
Just recently when using IE as a search engine, it takes ages for it to respond and when it eventually does load, I get this message: "Bad Gateway, The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server". Is there something wrong with IE or is it my end and how can I put this right?
i have a computer that i put together about a year ago and it has come to the time when i need a bit more power out of this old box. the CPU is originally clocked at 3.00GHz and i have already OC'd it to 3.4 +/- 0.01GHz. so far, ive only been changing the multiplier and voltage, but its still not enough. is there anything i can do to push this machine further? all my specs should be in my signature.
View 6 Replies View Relatedi upgraded to Vista a couple months ago, my SLI has not worked for 3D applications. I would try to open a game like WoW, HL2, Crysis etc.. and the game would crash telling me the display device had failed. After lots of research I decided to just wait it out for new drivers and in the meantime use only one of the cards in Non-SLI mode. I recently downloaded the 178.24 driver update for my video cards and decided to give SLI another shot hoping that they fixed the problem by now.
I can now open and play my 3D applications in SLI except for one big problem. In certain random areas of the screen there are flashing lines randomly throughout gameplay, taking up to 75% of the screen at times. The games seem to run smooth like they should with SLI on but as I said the game looks glitchy or flashy and I don't know what to do please any info possible would be a big help, I've had this 2nd 8600GT XXX in my system for over 6 months now with no way of playing my games unhindered in SLI mode!
my COD 4 will not play multiplayer on my system it says "iw3mp.exe has stopped working" "a proglem has caused the program to stop working correctly and it will be closed" Single player works just fine, COD wow works just fine Single and MP. i have a geforce 9800gt 1gb graphics card, pentium duo core 3 ghz, and 4 gigs of ram. the game used to work before when i had a stock system. but it was CHOPPY so i upgraded. now it will not work at all in MP. I have tried enableing the DEP and it still will not work.
