!каблам Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 So I found this kinda old acme headset I plugged it in and tried listening to music. Holy shit did the headset surprise me... The sound was AMAZING and the bass was not too strong but not too weak, almost perfect! The headset works great for me and I did save like an SSD drive or another RAM stick, but there's 1 problem The mic isn't working for some reason. When I plug it in it shows up in recording devices and the sound is always showing as super loud (the green bar thing of loudness) I tried pressing listen to this device and the only thing I hear is buzzing I really want to replace my acme microphone which is literally like a dildo Any help is appreciated, if you need more details post here and I'll add you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noot ♥ Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Where did you store the hs? is it in good condition? Make sure the metal tip is clean and fully attached to the computer Perhaps there is dust inside the mic. Try blowing air and cleaning it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure something is wrong like maybe it isnt getting recognised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noot ♥ Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Pretty sure something is wrong like maybe it isnt getting recognised? Try control panel > hardware and devices > Sound Your computer should automatically recognize your microphone. I'm not sure, but you must make sure the metal wires in the headset is not broken from the twisting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this was the fix. Switch from HEADSET to HEADPHONE Somehow, I don't get this popup on my PC, which is why my mic doesn't work apparently.
