I am still waitng for my audigy 2 to arrive so in the mean time i am using the Realtek AC'97 Audio built in to my Gigabyte K8N-SLI motherboard. Now the problem is I cannot even get the microphone to work in windoze let alone BF2. If you ask me I think the problem lies in the gigabyte jack sensing software as it wont detect a microphone plugged in. Anyone had similar problems? It is very sh!tty playing BF2 with no mic so plz help

thanks

I would say its the mic that does not work. Otherwise its just a setting.

neh its definately not the mic, its a logitech premium headset, it works 100% in my other computer. I am pretty sure it is a setting but i have been trying for to days now and had no success. The problem is the 'jack sensing', it detects the speaker part of the headset but not the microphone.

OK I am assuming the headset has 1 x stereo jack for the speakers and 1 x jack for mic.

Try switching the order you plug them in, or just try the mic on its own with out the speakers. See if that works. Then try and plug the speaker bit into the mic jack and see what it does.

I remember my sister had a problem with her headphones and messing around a bit fixed it. It was detected as a mic :confused:
