Solve : Microphone is not working.?

1.	Solve : Microphone is not working.?
Answer» Hello everyone, I'm here again and unfortunately I need help again, this time with my audio hardware. I bought a Trust headset + mic some months ago and it worked just fine untill 3 or 4 DAYS ago when the people I called on skype couldn't hear me anymore. Weird fact, they heard what I was listening to from my headphones, like input and output audio were messed up. I didn't change any setting recently, so I really don't know what's gone wrong. I CHECKED that the jacks were in the correct places, that the mic was working (tested it on another computer) and looked if it was muted from Control Panel, downloaded LATEST driver for my audio card and tried to solve the problem from Realtek Audio Manager but I failed. Also, I'm pretty sure it's not a skype problem since my mic doesn't even work in Windows Record or whatever it's called. I'm using Windows 7 and have a Realtek HD audio card. I'm also posting a PIC of my control panel audio settings so you can notice that while I play music from Windows Media Player the microphone "input" bar goes up like I'm speaking, which is really strange.

Hello everyone, I'm here again and unfortunately I need help again, this time with my audio hardware.

I bought a Trust headset + mic some months ago and it worked just fine untill 3 or 4 DAYS ago when the people I called on skype couldn't hear me anymore. Weird fact, they heard what I was listening to from my headphones, like input and output audio were messed up. I didn't change any setting recently, so I really don't know what's gone wrong. I CHECKED that the jacks were in the correct places, that the mic was working (tested it on another computer) and looked if it was muted from Control Panel, downloaded LATEST driver for my audio card and tried to solve the problem from Realtek Audio Manager but I failed. Also, I'm pretty sure it's not a skype problem since my mic doesn't even work in Windows Record or whatever it's called.

I'm using Windows 7 and have a Realtek HD audio card. I'm also posting a PIC of my control panel audio settings so you can notice that while I play music from Windows Media Player the microphone "input" bar goes up like I'm speaking, which is really strange.

Hello,
I'm pretty sure that both the headset and the mic are the default output / input devices in Control Panel and everywhere else

Well let's be 100% sure before we proceed, okay?@Jason, unfortunately my computer has not a built-in mic...

@Allan, I double checked it and as you can see in the screenshots both the headphones (output) and mic (input) are default (you can barely see "dispositivo predefinito" under them, which is the italian for "default device" )

What color holes are the correspnding jacks plugged into ? ?red jack in red hole (mic), green jack in green hole (headphone)

It used to work before something went bad :cQuote from: Wolfheart on September 28, 2010, 11:58:21 AM

Well, I'm sorry but I don't see your headset listed in the device list - and it certainly isn't the default microphone.I'm sorry, there must be some misunderstaing going on...

Any hint on what to do?
