Hey guys !
So,I just got a new headset. It's the Razer Electra.I literally opened them 30mins ago ( :D ) ,but there is one issue - my mic doesn't work,at least I think it doesn't.
So,they came with 2 cables - one is for only for the sound ,and the other one is for the in-line mic and audio,but the mic seems to be off the whole time,even though my Sounds says that it's turned on.
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance :)

Try the headset on a different PC if that doesn't work just send it back or return to the store you brought it from. Sometimes its not worth the hassle unless its a pain to send it back for you

Love computers but wanting to learn more about troubleshooting and wanting to contribute to this community!
According to the specs on the Razer site, this has a 4 pin connector for the mic, for use with iPhones, etc.
If that is the case you will need an adapter to use the mic

Audio + Microphone Usage: Devices with 3.5mm audio + mic combined jack
(Compatible with Apple iPhone®, HTC®, BlackBerry®. The Razer Electra was designed for smart phones and laptops that come default with a 4 pin TRRS audio + mic combined jack. Razer cannot guarantee performance for use with third party splitter cables.)
