It really sucks how they took out the microphone option. It really bothers me how the headset doesn't respond when the mic actually works. It makes me think it is broken or not working. If there is any other way you can restore that.
View 1 RepliesSo I updated my windows last night I had Windows 7 Before and I upgraded to 10, took about a good hour I used a wireless connection. It finished and it got to the login screen and I was like cool okay, but I noticed the Resolution was too big for my screen, and I try to log in and my Windows 10 Stops responding, then restarts to begin the process all over again. I cannot f8 or switch user or use the power button on the login screen.

Did the free upgrade from Win8.1 about three weeks ago. When I first did the upgrade everything worked as it should. Left on vacation and came back, the computer wanted to do an update, so I restarted the computer. Now since the update my "Start" button doesn't work. I can right click and a text version pops up. My "Search " line at the bottom is gone as well.
I have tried the adding a new user, but it won't let me. I can get to the point where it asks "family member" or "guest" but when I click on either one nothing happens.
I have also tried both directly in PowerShell and from an elevated CMD prompt
Go to Search and type powershell
Right click on the PowerShell icon and select Run as Administrator
In PowerShell enter the following key and press Enter:
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml”}
Wait for PowerShell to execute the command (a few errors might show up, ignore them)
When everything is finished try to open Start Menu again
Search doesn't work in the right clicked menu, so went through Task Man (and clicked run as Admin) But the command just sits there, I get nothing. Copied and pasted the above text string and when I hit enter I get "deployment operation progress....." it sits there and does nothing after that. How long should I have to wait? When I ran this in Ele. CMD IO let it run for over an hour and it never changed from the original "Deployment progress...." In the PowerShell (admin) I let it run for 15 minutes and nothing.
I also went into Regedit and tried this fix. It didn't do anything either
Method 2: Solve the problem with Registry Editor
If Powershell solution somehow didn’t work for you, you can try to fix your problem with Registry Editor, because your problem maybe lays somewhere in the registry. Here’s what you should do to solve your Start Menu problem with Registry Editor:
Press Windows key and R at the same time and type regedit
Open Registry Editor and navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion ImmersiveShellLauncher
Click Edit > New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, and name it UseExperienceDouble-click the newly created item and set the value to 0Click OK, close the Registry Editor and then restart your computer.

View 2 RepliesHP upgraded from Win7 and Toshiba upgraded from Win8.3 6-10 months ago to Win10.
I've tried to change from Fast Start which fixed only the failure on Toshiba to restart on command which was a good thing. Did nothing for HP.
I've changed the keyboard registry in both computers to the #2 which did nothing. (The HP was already set to 2)
I've gotten the latest patches and upgrades for Win10 on both laptops. Did nothing.
The numlock light comes on and stays on. The on screen icons show either locked or unlocked properly. Only the directional controls continue to work in either locked or unlocked mode.
I've found nothing anywhere that addresses this. Has to be a software issue as computers are different manufacturers and one is 3 years old and other is less than one year old.
It baffles me that it works on startup to put in my PIN and only fails when logged on to Windows 10.
My computer goes to sleep when I unplug my headphones-not always, but often. This does not happen for other devices such as my mouse or earphones.
View 1 RepliesI'm having an issue with my system where, while my G430 USB headset is plugged into 1 of the 3(2x2.0 and 1x3.0) USB ports on the front of my case the other 2.0 USB doesn't not seem to work or rather Windows 10 PRO won't recognize my USB key(I've used tried multiple USB keys already). I hate having to disconnect my headset every damn time I'm sitting here waiting for a file to be copied onto my USB!

Since I use Windows 10, my mic capture automatically lowers from 100% to 50% when I open games like The Crew and Blops 3. I have this with all my headsets so it's not that it changes because of a particular headset.
How can I prevent it from changing al the time, mostly it changes when I Alt+Tab in game to search something in Firefox. That makes my game go from Fullscreen to windowed, I don't know if that has anything to do with it but I really hate the fact that I have to stop playing games just to set my mic capture higher all the time.
I have the Hyperx Cloud II and the Logitech Z523. The headset is connected with and USB cable and the speakers use the normal 3.5mm jack. It's just annoying to go into playback devices and set it back to either one, so my question is that is there a faster way to do it? Also, I have windows 10...
View 1 RepliesAfter upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 my audio now plays through my headset and through my computers speakers.
FAQ:
-Have you updated your drivers: Yes I have.
-Have you set the headset as default device: Yes I have.
-What audio do you have: Ok, I not sure which one I have, but I can find VIA HD and on Windows 8.1 (not on Windows 10) I use to have Realtek audio manager which I have now lost.
-What headset do you have: Sennheiser G4ME ZERO.
I recently bought the g633 gaming headset of Logitech, I enjoyed it for a while until one day it decided to stop producing sound from the left speaker, which more of just being annoying also makes my left ear feel strange.
I enjoyed the amazing comfort and sound from this headset, it worked perfectly, the last time it worked was the first day of this year (2016), I was gaming at 3:00 am as I ussually do, felt tired and went to sleep. When I woke up it stopped working. I have tried all different sound types provided by the LGS and turning them off. I have tried the balance thing for volume and didn't work, except for the first time, it worked for a little until it decided to stop again.
The second time it worked was when Windows said something about an enhancement for my headset, this time it worked for something of an hour, but the same happened in the end. Lastly, the last time it worked was when I decided to uninstall the headset, and reinstall it, then reinstall the LGS, this time it worked for something of 7+ hours ans stopped again
My drivers and updates are up to date. I use the USB cable provided by Logitech. When I use the Jack the same happens, as well as in other devices, but by the fact that sometimes it works again I have hope. OS: Windows 10 home, 64X
Okay, so i finished upgrading to W10 now, and when i plug in my corsair h2100. A wireless headset, Windows keep alerting or something with this wierd sound. It sounds like "damalam" and it is a non stop sound.
The sound is the Windows 10 disconnecting sound. But that's weird. nothing is being disconnected by it self.
[URL] ....
Solution : D-Link USB Hub is not currently W10 supported. That's why?
as the title mentions I did a windows 10 refresh, mainly due to some random issues I was having. Since then everything has run smoothly, all previous issues resolved except for the fact that now every time I turn on my headset (Turtle Beach px5 - bluetooth connected via a bluetooth adapter) The fan speeds up just for a second, and will do the same when I turn the headset off. This is the same sort of very brief spin-up the fan has always done during a boot since first purchasing the pc. It has never spun up outside of booting the pc until just days ago when I refreshed windows 10.
My first guess was that there was a conflict and maybe one device was getting confused with another but the device manager shows no conflicts.
Ever since I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10, I've been experiencing brief audio popping/cracking noise. Sometimes I could go an hour and not hear anything, other times I hear a pop every 30 seconds. There has to be sound playing for the popping to occur. Its brief, but can get annoying when listening to music.
I have tried many things including:
-Updated drivers (Realtek HD Audio)(AMD GPU drivers)(Realtek Network Card)
-Tried disabling Realtek HD Audio since it doesn't effect USB audio
-I do not have a WiFi card so its not that
-Its not a DPC Latency issue; No spikes from LatencyMon
-Disabled sound enhancements from playback devices
-Its not the headphones themselves as they work fine on other sources
-I tried an old set of ear buds that weren't USB and they seemed to work fine so it may just be USB audio.
I do have a Dell XPS 435t/9000 that's about 4 years old with some hardware changes like PSU/GPU etc., maybe its the motherboard? (Though that's kind of a stretch). Dell says that certain computers don't support windows 10 upgrade, but I feel like that's just so they don't hold you responsible if you do upgrade, as everything else works perfectly.
For some reason out of nowhere my headset will disconnect, and videos stop working . My headset just disconnects, and videos are unable to play. Also, sometimes the shortcut bar will also stop working when this happens. Windows 10 ...

I'm trying to make the In-game sounds and every other system sounds sound in the speaker, and the Skype/TS/Raidcall (i'm using raidcall) in the headset but i don't know how to make it. I know i can make the Raidcall sound in the headset in the configurations, but i don't know how to make Windows (win10) and every other sound to sound in the speakers. I'm using the Realtek audio (Gigabyte Z97-Gaming 5 MOBO).
View 1 RepliesSo I'm trying to get an external microphone (on a headset) working on my recently bought HP laptop (it's the Star Wars LE here), last night I was testing my headset but there is a really loud buzzing sound even when there's absolutely no interference in the room.
I've tried updating all drivers and even went and bought a new headset today for $40, so its definitely not the headset. In control panel I don't have Realtek Audio Manager (I did on my old laptop), but I have this "B & O Play" software which is a basic alternative. I've tried messing with those settings to no avail.
My older headset is one which has green and pink jacks, so I have a splitter for those, but my new headset has a combo jack so it connects directly.
Here's the weird part though, control panel > sound, whenever I talk into the mic on the headset, it actually comes through the "headphones" under sound:
But in recording, the microphone (which is seems to come through) doesn't have any kind of noise level, but if I disable it, the mic on the headset stops.
(The other mic available is the built in one for the camera).
I can get it to pair and says it is paired but it says it is disconnected in the playback and recording settings dialog box. Is it possible my devices are too old the Bluetooth dongle is BT2.0 and the headset is a MotorolaT225 hands free speakerphone for my cellphone which works fine. If they are then what headset does work with win10 out of the box?
View 6 RepliesI have headset Genius HS-500X and it has 2 seperate cables for audio and mic. The problem is that my laptop has only 1 jack with headphones and microphone icon, so it should be a combo jack. About 2 months ago I've bought an splitter [URL] , that has one cable red and one green so it should work. It's the same as in picture. But when I plug everything in correctly microphone is not working and headphones have reversed sound, when sound should come from left side it comes from right. I've tried to reinstall software (realtek) many times, also bought another one splitter, but no success.
