instructions are telling me i need to check a 20db microphone boost to get Teamspeak going

Quote:
to boost microphone go to control panel, sound and audio devices, in the device volume section click advanced, your sound board will now be displayed, click advanced buttun under microphone.

a window will pop up, at the bottom of that you'll see a section "other controls", check the box that says microphone boost.


but these instructions don't follow true on my Vistahp. can someone translate them?

all true till the end bit, there is no custom tab. I get 3 more tabs after clicking properties (General,Levels and Advanced) Closest thing to adjustments other than volume is in Advanced: a drop down for format (channel 16 bit etc) (wondered if being a Vista 32 bit with a 16bit confuddle...but i'd be talkin out of the wrong orifice lol)

and that repeat key bell, sheez, i used to turn that off in XP by typing 'repeat key' in help, but i cant do that now :s

:s

My mic booost in Vista would be under levels, then second option down on there.

Wat sound card and what mic you got, maybe if its a creative and you ghave the audio console enabled it isnt set to sync with windows settings, (should be an opton in the audio console)

eek, ermmm, i got a C-Media CM6501 Like Sound Device , yes, i think that is the sound card :shock: and a Logitech USB headset.

sooo... how do i check my sound card is in sync?

I've got a CM6501 sound config program in Control Panel, that just has pretty pics of various speaker arrrangements. i cant select the headphone button in there for some reason. i dont think that is it.

Umm couldnt say with that sound card, mines an x-fi, and sennys, and the craetive has its own bit of software on top for effects, but has an option to sync.

Had a look on their site and checked their drivers, cos if its an onboard sound maybe a windows drivers update has screwed it....had that problem with the creative.
