Mic is not working

AwolSkaarj · January 2011

A friend of mine has a mic that isn't working. It was working just last night though. She has Windows 7, so any clues on why it could stop working, please let me know. I could use some help in this situation.

A few more details would help, if your in vent, do you hear a noise when they open the mic? Does it turn green? Details are useful my padawan.

I can actually hear myself on Vent if she leaves it on. It shows green, but I can't hear her.

Also on AIM, she can hear me, can't hear her. It's no any of the programs, so it's either the computer itself or the headset. I read on a set of forums that Windows 7 is having issues with mic's so it's most likely that. Should she just get some sort of tech support, like Geek Squad or something? lmao.

I wish I could help but I am not a tech/computer whiz. But you might try moving this to the technical support section. Sometimes people on there have helpful suggestions! Good luck!

All geek squad is are a bunch of high school kids who go through 2 week training camps. You'll have better luck here.
