Windows 10: Updated wrong firmware for LifeChat LX6000 headset

Hi there,


I updated the wrong firmware on my LX6000 headset and now it thinks it is LX4000.

I tried to install/update the firmware back to LX6000 but the exe claims that I don't have that headset.


What can I do?

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue

 

Headset Issues - Microsoft LifeChat LX4000

I have two Microsoft LifeChat LX4000 head sets, one device connects perfectly however the other connects as a USB audio device and can not hear any sound. I have attempted to set it as a default device in Playback Devices, however it does not register as
a Microsoft LifeChat LX4000 like the other headset does. I can test the microphone phone and this registers but there is no playback for sound. any idea why this device isn't connecting properly?

running windows 10. both headsets previously worked fine.
