  1. Microphone and headphone not working together.


    I recently got a new laptop and I can't get my microphone to work. I did every basic thing like setting privacy, setting default device, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers. I spent 2 hrs doing everything I could. It's really weird, I got the microphone fixed twice but then my headphone would stop working if my mic is working and vice versa. Only either my headphone or my mic will work but not at the same time. I plugged the microphone and headphone back in my old laptop and it does work, so I copied all the settings to the new laptop, it still doesn't work!!!! Please help me if anyone had t

    :)

    Microphone not working

    Hi Angush,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the Microphone fails to work. I will be glad to help you.

    To diagnose the issue, I suggest you to try the following methods and check if the issue persists.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: Ensure the headphone or microphone is fully and firmly inserted into the correct jack.

    Step 2: Plug in the headphone or microphone and see if the same shows up in Control Panel.

    Please follow the instruction:

    a) Right-click on sound icon in the taskbar and select “Recording Devices”.

    See if the Microphone is listed.

    b) If not, right-click on the blank area and select “Show Disabled Devices”.

    c) Right-click on your microphone and select “Enable ”.

    Step 3: Check the volume property. Ensure that it’s not mute.

    Method 2:

    This may happen when you have the external speakers set to default.

    Perform the task mentioned below to set headphones as default:

    1. On the start screen of windows 10 press the ‘Windows key + X’
    key on the keyboard and then click on Control Panel >
    Sound option.

    2. In the new windows click on the tab "Playback" and right click in the window and click on
    Show Disabled devices.

    3. Now check if headphones are listed there and right click on it and choose
    Enable.


    4. Highlight that headphones and click on "Set as Default".

    Please post back with the status of the issue and we will be glad to assist you further.

    Thank you.
