well.

I need help getting my mic to pick up my voice.

 

windows 10 headset mic not working

Still not working for me. I did find out one more interesting fact:

I tried to go to Speech Properties (Advanced Speech Options -- under Speech Recognition)

and when I selected my Xbox 360 headset as the recording device, and restarted Speech Properties, it gave me the following error message:

"Could not initialize volume meter, please select a different recording device"

FYI -- I've messed with Privacy-Microphone and Control Panel-Sound settings to no avail: default devices, enabling/disabling, reinstalling drivers, levels, mute, etc. Nothing works. This is DEFINITELY a Windows 10 problem. My chat headset works great
on my Xbox360 and when I was on Windows 7, my USB Xbox360 controller and chat headset were working perfectly. I'm regretting my upgrade and highly debating reverting back.

Update: I found another thread and they recommended the follow which worked for me...

Xbox360 Headset Microphone Not Working

• Plug in Controller and Headset
• Control Panel - Sound - Recording
• • Disable alternate microphones (eg: webcam mic)
• Device Manager
• • Sound, video and game controllers - Headset (XBOX 360 For Windows)
  • • Uninstall driver
  • Scan for Hardware Changes (will auto-install Xbox Headset)
• Restart

 

Headset mic not working in Windows 10

I have a Logitech headset. Somehow the mic of the headset is not recognized by the computer. We have downloaded the latest Realtek driver but headset mic does not show in the Playback tab of the Sound panel. The built in mic of my HP Desktop is functioning.
I tried plugging in the headset in my laptop and mic works. My laptop has the old O/S of Windows not Windows 10.

Is there a Microsoft fix that I can install to address this problem?

Thanks.
