Problem with a USB Headset

Donniee · 05-14-2008, 01:30 PM

Hey, I seem to be having a load of trouble with my mic on a headset, speakers work fine. It is called a Sector7 Xtreme Gaming Headset. It used to work perfectly until one day it suddenly stopped without warning. It did come with cds to install the driver which I did. I installed and uninstalled the driver multiple times. I payed 50 bucks for these babies so I don't really feel like i wanna buy a new one. Awesome if you can help me, thanks!
Oh right my dxdiag thing

If the headset just stopped working and you didn't make any system changes, it could be faulty (loose wire, bad connection, etc). Have you tested it on another computer or another USB slot?
