Driver Issues with my headset? - Pyro - 08-31-2009

Furly told me someone here might know how to fix this.

I bought a logitech headset about 7 months ago and they worked fine on my old computer. Now that I have my new computer on vista 64 ultimate I plug in the usb and nothing happens.

Any idea why vista isn't recognizing the headset? I hope I dont need the exact model of the headset, I threw the box away months ago and I dont see any info on the actual headset. :evil:

It's probably issues with Vista + your motherboard.

Is that USB port recognizing other input devices... mouse, keyboard?


Re: Driver Issues with my headset? - Pyro - 08-31-2009

it recognized my external hard drive, and my printer. :?

need more info

a link of your headphones

service pack for vista

sound driver

obvious course of action is to make sure these are all up-to-date

and then if you still have problems google it or ask aragon

My Logitech headset did the same thing when I got a new comp w/ Vista. It's the only complaint I've had with the OS to date.

I found that plugging it in to the sound ports directly instead of going through the USB worked. Assuming you have a model that has a USB adapter on the end and didn't just come that way, give it a try.

hey morons it probably has to do with the fact that its 7 months old

I've had the same mic since I was in devils advocate which if you guys know the Abecpedia that was before AoTR, Guardians of the Faith, and even Discipline/Seven Sins.

I dont think 7 month old hardware is that bad.

need more info

a link of your headphones - Said this already.

Let me know if you know how to identify them.

service pack for vista - Vista 64 Ultimate SP1 (all updates installed)

sound driver - ATI Function Driver for High Definition Audio - ATI AA01 & SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio (I have a mobo integrated sound card, nothing dedicated.)

obvious course of action is to make sure these are all up-to-date - vista says they both are the most up to date I can get.

and then if you still have problems google it or ask aragon - k thanks anyways.

Where could I get one of these adapters? Do you know what they are called?

I dont either, its really weird that this isnt working as usb 2.0 is an incredibly common external device platform.

Edit: I figured it out. Vista is so retarded sometimes; you have to manually enable the device switch from speakers to microphone headset. You do this by setting a "default device" in the sound extensions panel. Simply right click sounds then click "sounds" and go the the playback or recording tabs.

dumb people are dumb.
