I have a Creativ(E?) Fatal1ty
I've updated to the latest drivers, nothing 'happening.
People seem to be able to hear my computer sound, but not the mic itself, and I've tested the mic on another computer and it's working just fine there.
What can the issue be?
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
After some research, it could be the driver that's corrupt
Is there any FREE program that could fix this?
thats the same card i had in my pc it thinks the mic in put is a line in. if you plug your mic into your onboard sound you get your mic working i still have not bin able to get mine working just like you
what is the make and model no. of the headset/mic..?
how is it connected - usb or input socket on the soundcard..?
That would be because there aren't any. What are missing and need to install are the drivers for your sound card, whether onboard or an actual card. As for which it is, at the moment only you know that as it doesn't show in your screen shot. If it is onboard then you can get the driver from the motherboard manufacturer, same if it is a sound card.
P.S. This is just in general for everyone else. Any time someone is asking about sound issues and they say or post a screen shot that says "high definition audio device", they need to install the proper drivers for it as all it is running on is the default Windows audio driver. The default driver has just enough functionality in most cases that you will get sound out of the computer, but much more beyond that requires the proper driver.
