Exclamation Mic Trouble

Hello,

Every since my arma crashed a few days ago, the voice on my Microsoft Microphone Headset is not working properly. I can hear through it fine, I am just simply not able to talk through it. It is not muted. Is my mic just dead after under a year's use or is there something else up with it? Thanks.

Re: Mic Trouble

It doesn't work in arma only or in TS also?

Re: Mic Trouble

No TS either it seems. I'm starting to think it may be dying because sometimes it actually cuts in and out. It works for a few minutes and people can hear me, then it goes dead again. Although is that possible when the headset sound works just find?

Re: Mic Trouble

Check your mic connection, and I mean the actual connections inside the mic. The wires may have been thinned due to wear and tear.
Just another thought.

Re: Mic Trouble

All the wires appear fine. It hasn't seen any real wear, just sitting on my desktop. I also have a real old logitec, but I can't even get it to filter sound, nevermind speak through it.

Re: Mic Trouble

Check ur sound card if he is overheating (close to a monster graphic card) then thats the problem.

Re: Mic Trouble

But can the sound card itself be overheating and all other headphone sounds be working just fine? Or it is something that specifically effects the microphone?

If it is indeed the problem, is the only solution to get a new soundcard?

Re: Mic Trouble

NO! Don't rush and buy a new card.

Make sure you have everything ok in the audio control pannel, if it's ok, try reinstalling the audio drivers, but when you uninstall them make sure to use driver sweeper to clean everything they leave behind.
