So I got new comp few monthes back, decent HP media center with XP so far the game runs smooth as can be with no glitches....ecxept for my Mic.
I was using a traitional 1/8" headphone jack mic plugged into the line in on the front of my computer. However with that headset in AH no one could under stand me and they said i was really loud(yes i played with all the settings). However I use skype and ventrillo and in those apps my voice is crystal clear. So, fed up with being silent and at the right place at the right time I pickup a USB headset from office depot. I ran home plugged it in and perfect my voice rang out crystal clear over VOX. So i figure problem solved...........few minutes later i flying with my squad giving direction letting people know what to attack, when i realize no one can hear me. I look down and the little light on my new headsets volume control and it is blinking very fast, it was solid. I get pissed off and just pull the plug and stick back in.......works great for another little bit and then my mic goes dead again.....What do I do? Can anyone help me fix either headset USB or reg 1/8".
