My microphone :(

[MindCrafter]

After i installed some new drivers for my Avance'97 sound card, the microphone stopped to work

Now the card's name is "Realtech'97"...

Later i tryed to reinstall the drivers; but again, the mic didn't work.



I've posted this problem at 3 forums, no real helpful answer yet, but there is still a small bit of hope left :bonce:

Edit: Just post something here, I want my shitty mic to work! Desperate!

It doesn't seem to be edible no longer...anyways i tryed the mic on my father's computer and it worked, so there has to be a problem with my configuration and/or drivers.

go to play control and unmute the microphone, or go to record control and unmute the microphone forgot which one, just do both.

Play control? Where? Tell me.

right click on the speaker icon in your taskbar, or it's in control panel > Sounds and Audio devices.

You've probably just got it muted.

By any chance, does your mobo have a VIA chipset ?

 

[MindCrafter]

Yup, VIA it is...mobo is mainboard right? :cheers:

Oh and i don't have it muted.


Edit: I had it muted...let me just go hurt myself.

Edit2: Removed swearing + The mic now works, but it's just EXTREMLY LOW.

And now i noticed that the microphone is recording the music i'm playing in winamp...and i have headphones. It's times like this when you just got to say LOL.

Sorry for tripple-posting, but here is a picture of my audio config. As you can see the sound recorder are moving while i play some music in winamp:

Take a look at this please


Oh and some of you need translation:

Velg = Choose
Demp = Mute
Avansert = Advanced (duh)
Lyd - Lydinnspilling = Sound - Sound Recording

Also, if i unmute the Mic i get scratching sounds in the headphones.
