My USB headset no longer works with my laptop.

I used a pair of headphones from Turtle Beach PLa as standard headphones with a microphone. I had only connected it via USB. I use a Toshiba Satellite L655-S5060 with Windows 7 Home Edition and they were working fine for months. But then just last night, I unplugged the on the accident, which normally isn't much, but when I reconnected it, the computer recorded, they were connected and are the main audio output, but would sound only comes out of the speakers. I tried the audio test and that would not work. After a bit of a panic attack, I downloaded a fix that was to solve this problem. There is no fix, and I tried to plug a pair of headphones Skull Candy. After that I did they worked and it was fine. So, I disconnected the determined to get a pair of ordinary headphones that plug into an outlet. I tried to plug the headset again and of course, the audio came out of speakers. I didn't know what to do.

For a story on my laptop, if it will help you, the battery wouldn't hold a charge, and we could not afford a new so I took it out and left for a few months, using the adapter as a power source. I had some water damage on it, and the keyboard does not work, so I use a Microsoft 2000 No. 1477 wireless keyboard model. Affected only water damage the keyboard. USB port on the right side of the laptop is loose and makes the keyboard disconnect if I move the USB connector. I tried to plug my headphones into the other USB ports, nothing works and I don't know what else I can do and I'm desperately afraid of breaking my phone more as it is, because we cannot afford a new for awhile.

  • Logitech USB Headset comfort micro works with XP, but not with Windows 7

    Hello.  I recently got a new computer with Windows 7.  I also have one with XP Pro.  My Logitech Comfort USB headset works great with my XP computer, but the microphone on my headset does not work with my computer of W7.  The headphones work fine, I can hear loud and clear.  There is no problems appearing in Device Manager.  Windows installed all the drivers when I plugged it in, it recognizes my helmet and said that it works correctly.  I ran the function of problem solving and it's supposed to be working very well.  Plug into my XP computer and it works fine.

    I tried several 'solutions' Troubleshooting over the few days without result, including the verification of all the sound levels (all 100%), ensuring that drivers is common (they are), to tweak the settings sound in various ways, (possibly reset to defaults), making sure Windows is up to date, blah blah blah.  The Compatibility Center Windows says that my helmet is compatible with W7.

    I looked everywhere and, with the exception of when someone has their Mute microphone or set low volumes, there doesn't seem to be a response to this problem, but there are a lot of people who have this and not only with Logitech headsets.

    Logitech forums say that it is a Microsoft problem, W7 has a compatibility problem.  I don't know what else to do to get my microphone to work.

    I would really appreciate any suggestions beyond the ones I've tried.   Thanks in advance.

    Hi Moki-mo,

    The headphones came with the installation software? If so, install the software on the Windows 7 computer. If this does not resolve the problem, visit the Windows 7 Compatibility Center to make sure that the headset is compatible with Windows 7.

    I have headphones Sennheiser U 320 USB that I got about 6 months before, it worked fine up until this point. The sound no longer plays through the headphones, he just playing through the speakers. I reinstalled my audio drivers and I tried to put the default audio headset in playback devices but the headphones don't even appear. When I right click on the space empty and check see the disconnected devices that they don't even appear. I don't know what to do at this point. At the time where they worked I got a few messages in the status bar system that says my helmet might not be installed correctly, I tried to fix it but didn't know what to do so I swept, then they just stopped working all together.

    As of October 11, 2012, my 7 port hub Belkin USB-To-Go is no longer recognized by Windows. It worked without problem until today when I installed updates. When I plug it in, nothing is displayed, but for some reason, USB ports are disabled. I tried it on several ports without result. I contacted Belkin, and it seems more likely to be a problem of driver within Windows.

  • Bluetooth headset does not work with Windows 7 - device is detected.

    I have a Dell XPS 1530, which had Vista 32 bit running. I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate. Ever after that the Bluetooth of DELL BH 200 headset does not work with my laptop.

    The bluetooth adapter and the device is fine since I'm able to search and find all bluetooth devices, including my helmet. However, I get a yellow exclamation on the headset under devices. The headset can be paired with other devices such as my mobile and works very well.

    I tried to update the drivers and reinstall the device and the adapter from the Device Manager. We have a similar setup on my brother's computer and it works fine.

    Another thing to watch, would be what battery is used.  I know from personal exp some devices work with Toshiba stack, vs the MSFT pile up.  Do a search and see if anyone else uses a different battery with these devices.

    If possible, try to install the operating system with recovery media. On this way, you will have to factory settings. It's the best test you can do. If the problem persists, it may be a malfunction of the equipment. Sorry but on this path is not easy to tell what the problem may be.

  • HP OfficeJet printers no longer work with 7 Pro. WHY?

    Dear community of Microsoft,

    I'm at the edge of madness since August 14 I'm more able to print on ANY of my HP Officejet printers (both 4500 and a 6500 all in UNITS).  I checked my e-mail address after this thought maybe there would be something Softronics or H.P. in there as a bug or a problem, and of course, there was something H.P.

    I downloaded and ran the "so-called fix."  It wouldn't work.   I'm at the end of my mind and actually BROKEN printers all over my patio.  Childish, maybe, but you have NO IDEA how bad that company makes me mad after the purchase of 17 computers and 8 printers in recent years.  NONE WORK PROPERLY.  NOT A SINGLE ONE.

    H.P. will NOT help me.  But it's NOTHING new to them.  I will NEVER buy another HP product again.  I tried to print a label of mail for more than two weeks now.

    Yes, I had technicians of various companies go into my computer and no ONE, not even H.P., may fix the problem.

    I'm NOT a violent person at all, but it speaks volumes when we crash one of their own printers by such severe frustration.

    My computer is a HP dv7 4000 (supposedly custom... probably not as I buy direct HP and they TEND to rip off of people... just to tell the truth).

    He was SUPPOSED to be a business personal computer built with 7 Professional on it and Office Pro 10 on it.  He appeared as a computer at home (I only paid $3 000,00 to IT... what I would have expected?  "I'm sarcastic to keep to go completely crazy.)

    It has been printing fine on all printers (two HP 4500, a HP 6500 and a very old Canon BJC 4400).  He will receive NO H.P. downloads software or AT ALL on printing of the H.P..

    PLEASSSSEEEEE HELP ME!   I'm at my wit's end.  Yet once, H.P. has a few download send me before I even found printers does not.  They would not work after I installed it and even NOW they still don't work.

    I've done stabbed to pick up the whole system and reinstall everything but as you, who are likely to pros, know, H.P. aren't configuration that can be restored more than the manufacturer's original no matter WHAT say their textbooks online.  It does NOT work.  The computer was delivered without manuals or software.  I had to buy the upgraded software separately since they refused, when I thought it wasn't the computer I ordered, to accept a return and provide the APPROPRIATE injector (I know, what a shock).

    PLEASE HELP ME!  I can't print anything.  I don't have the original disks for installing the printer... they will not accomplish.  H.P. downloads no longer work.

    Karen > ^ * n ^ *.
