Windows 10: My Record tab crashes when i click my microphone

I just swapped my old Kraken Razer USB for a new HyperX Cloud Stinger, and the new mic is way too low. So i went to see it on the record tab, but when i click that mic (doesnt happen when i click other ones), it crashes. This was happening with the razer one too, but i didnt pay it any mind cause i didnt need to mess on those configurations. Im pretty sure the hyperX doesnt have a driver, and im not sure which driver to download for windows 10 64, for the microphone to be louder. Anyway this thing is bothering me. I tried uninstalling the driver and letting windows 10 install it again but to no good end. Can someone help me? Thanks!
