    Black Background while playing games

    Hi, so ever since I got my new pc, I have been playing a few games here and there. These games were downloaded from the microsoft store and the majority have a black background. I know this should not be like this since I am playing a game I have before
    on my old pc and it did not have a black background. To be more specific, I am not experiencing a black screen nor am I crashing but instead I am simply playing the game normally just without a background. I do not know what can be causing this and it is really
    quite annoying. If this can be fixed, please let me know.

  3. Trouble using a built in bluetooth headset with mic while playing games in Windows 10

    Hello,

    I really need help with my bluetooth headphone for playing games in Windows 10!

    I can´t use both speakers and mic while playing games in windows 10. If I want to use the speakers I need to go in Task Bar > Sounds (right click) and deactivate the recording devide of the headset. After doing that, the sound becomes normal and I can use
    it in game, but only the speakers.

    Another important thing to say is that If let the mic activated, only when I get in a online match inside the game the speaker sound turns off! But in the game menu the sounds works fine.

    I tested the mic in Windows 10 using cortana and it works. Also the speakers. I mean, in windows 10 I can use both of them simultaneously. Only inside games I have problems.

    Any suggestions? Please this is really annoying, since I bought this bluetooth headset for playing online using the mic.

    Thank you!

    Issue when playing games

    Hello,

    This issue when you're playing games can be due to incompatible driver since it can be resolved by updating the display driver. However, we would like to know more about your concern. Kindly provide us the needed information below:

    • Which device are you using in playing games?
    • Is this issue happening when you're playing online or offline games?
    • Is there a connected USB device?
    • Are you getting any error messages?

    As an initial recommendation, we suggest that you try reinstalling the driver instead of updating it. Here's how:

    • Open Device Manager.
    • Right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device.
    • Select Uninstall.
    • Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Looking forward to your response for any updates.
