Mic doesn't work?

[LiamC]

Hi all,

I own two pairs of headsets with built in microphones, however both pairs don't seem to work.

The Audio is fine but the microphone doesn't pick anything up.

I've re-installed the Drivers and played around in the audio settings but no joy.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Have you checked in the software panel to see if the Mic jack is set to "Line in" ?

Not too sure what you mean, Im a software div.

Im on Teamspeak and my mate can't hear what im saying, Yet when i go onto youtube he can hear the videos im playing?

On TS does it show an Icon with a cross in it by you name ? If so you havent got your Mic enabled...

To help you I need to know what soundcard or Motherboard your using....

Andi means what do you have selected in this options panel:

If you are unsure how to open that window, right click on the volume symbol in your system tray and select "recording devices".

Have you also configured your mic using the recording devices area and ofc teamspeaks settings?
