  1. Gaming headset not showing - Windows 10


    I've just purchased Steel Series Arctis 1 Gaming Headset and when I plug it in there is no detection under playback devices.

    Under 'Playback' I have Speakers (Realtek Audio) or Realtek Digital Output.

    I've checked for driver updates and also selected 'show disable devices under playback' but still no luck.

    I was under the impression the model of the headset should show up under playback once plugged in. Am I wrong?

    Please help. Thanks

    Good surround sound headset

    I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue Gaming headset not showing - Windows 10 :p

    G433 Gaming Headset Mic is not working

    I have no problem with the audio, only with the mic.

    I don't have another headset to check with.

    I am having this issue in all games and applications.
