Hey I have a headset id like to use when im playing online but is there any way to keep the audio coming through my speakers and the voice just coming through my headset? a bit like xbox live. cheers
 
Set default playback device as speakers and default recording device as the your headset mic.

Assuming that the ouput for the speakers shows up as one device and the headset shows up as another.

Right click the sound icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.

Then select the output device your speakers are plugged into as default playback, then click the Recording tab and select the device your headset is plugged into as default microphone.

maybe. What setup are you using? If you have, say, some speakers on a sound card, and a usb headset, then you can select the input/output devices on skype (as an example) to use the headset. The game can then continue to use the default speakers :)

Might not be doable in your situation, so would need to know more :)

Unless you mean just having your voice input going through the headset, in which case do as said above..
