  1. No Microphones Picking up my Voice


    Hello! So just today I went to to play some games and work with some other programs that involve voice chat but it seems like my voice is not being picked up by any microphone I use. I used a plug in microphone, and even the one the comes with the computer and none of them can pick up anything. I am unable to talk in any games, chats, etc. I haven’t changed anything on my computer so I’m wondering if this is a update or something else. Any help is appreciated thank you!

    :)

  3. Microphone does not pick up voice

    My headset microphone is completely functional; however, my PC cannot pick up my voice. If I blow loudly in the microphone, the green bar on the sound control panel will light up but not when I talk normally. My drivers are fully updated and my microphone
    levels are maxed out.
