Windows 10: Headset not being detected by windows 10

I have a 3.5 mm jack headset that has a headphone jack that combines the audio and microphone jack into one, so I bought a splitter to connect my headset and microphone to my pc, and it all went well, the audio and mic were working well until my power went out, i didnt disconnect the headset or splitter but when the power came back the headset and mic were not being detected by windows.The headset still works, i tested it on my phone and it works fine, i tried everything to get my pc to recognize at least the mic but to no avail.Things i tried: Updating drivers, reconnecting the headset, swapp

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
