Please help me

I am using XP mode on VM Ware Player and the computer never recognizes my USB Logitech headset. I really need it to recognize. Any help? Please!

Just unplug your headset and plug it back in. If you see the system "detect new hardware" in your system tray, you are good to go! If that does not work, the go to your Device Manager and see if there already is a driver installed for your headset. If so, then you may need to open Sound in the control panel and choose your headset as the Default Device...

Hi, its still not recognizing it and I did what you said.....any other advice? I really need help
Thank you!

Upload a screenshot of your Device Manager and your Sound Panel.

Open paint and paste.

I took the screen shots and when I went to attach them it says I was missing a "security token" and could not attache them........grrrr....any advice?

security token? never heard of it. What browser are using? There might be special rule for new members, but I'm not sure. I'll look into it and be back in a minute.

Here is a full tutorial on creating a Screenshot. Everyone who owns a computer should learn this, it helps us to help you----plus you can share what your are seeing on your Desktop with friends, family etc.
Learn how to make a screenshot / take-a-screenshot.org

Whether it's Paint, www.irfanview.com (my favorite) or now in Vista and 7 "The Snipping Tool". Screenshots are absolutely a must have computer skill.


I would put the fundamental task of creating and editing screenshots in the Top 5 basic computer skills.

Screen shot

I seem to be having problem after problem. It says: invalid file now......

Anyways, I am using the VMware Player in XP mode.......I really need to find a way to get my USB headset to be recognized. I don't know why it says the Paint file is invalid

Hi when you reply to a thread can you see the "Manage attachments" link as below:

If so click it, browse to your folder where you stored the screenshot and upload it. Then you will see your file. Drag it to the message box. Click "Preview" and you will see the image. Then don't forget to click "Submit"!

EDIT: Just saw your other post. You need to save the file as a JPEG or PNG. In paint play safe and choose "Save as JPEG"
Much easier to use the Snippet tool in Windows & but look at that later. It's a very quick and easy way to put screenshots up here and they do tell us so much more than words can.

Hi Carl
I've got one of those tokens for my bank account but I can't see how it would be relevant here, can you? It is after all a small piece of actual hardware that I have on my key ring. It generates a new code every time I use it!

Yeah, I copied the wrong link and now I closed the page of the link I wanted.
