  1. My microphone is not showing up as an Input Device


    I've gone into Device Manager and my Realtek microphone is not showing up. The Output for my headphones work fine and show up in Device Manager. I've tried checking the Realtek Audio Console but, when I try to open it, it tells me "Realtek Audio Console doesn't support for this machine."

    :)

  2. microphone randomly disconnected and wont show up in input devices

    I got my zealsound microphone about 3 months ago. Worked fine until a day or two ago, when it randomly disconnected. It no longer shows up on my input devices menu at all. Ive tried replugging in every part of the microphone, and it seems to have power as the light is on. I have tried multiple USB ports but it still does not show up.

    Currently, the only input device listed is my headset, which I'm currently forced to use. Any ideas?

  3. Microphone not working and showing "No Audio Input Device".

    Hello,

    My name is Veeresh, I have noticed that there was an issue with the Audio Input Driver. Please use the steps below in restoring your microphone functionality. This could help if any other drivers are missing as well.

    1. Please open Device Manager.
    2. Next click on the Action tab at the top of the window.
    3. Once you can see the drop-down menu click on Add Drivers.
    4. After the Add Drivers, window pops up, click on Browse.
    5. Select Windows (CMy microphone is not showing up as an Input Device :) Drive, then click OK, & afterward click on Next.
    6. You’ll get a pop-up for a Microphone Driver; install it and you should be all set.
    If you have found this helpful, please share it with others as I have seen many struggling.

    Thanks,

    Veeresh
