We need some more info my friend

What microphone are you using?
Where, exactly, are you plugging it in?

#

i was using headset microphone i plugged it in jacks

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:10 PM

#

I'm afraid that doesn't answer either question
What headset?
Where is this jack? In a laptop, front panel of your desktop, the motherboard ports? A separate DAC?

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:11 PM

#

front panel of my desktop and i tryed motherboard ports and headset is rampage x jammer

#

can dead soundcard have sound but no output?

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:13 PM

#

Let's not jump to conclusions
That headset has a TRRS connector, meaning you need to use the breakout cable to plug into the separate headphone & microphone jacks

#

Are you using this?

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:14 PM

#

no 1 usb and 1 jack

#

on jack is headset icon

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:15 PM

#

What are you choosing as the sound input/output on your PC? Take a screenshot of the sound settings for me

#

I think what's most likely happening is you're misunderstanding how the audio in/out works on this headset. Do you have the manual?

#

PnP is this usb soundcard

#

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:19 PM

#

Ah ok you didn't mention you were using one of these

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:19 PM

#

I started using because it was not working and is still not working with these

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:20 PM

#

Do you have the manual for your headset?

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:20 PM

#

i mean i can look on google for manual

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:20 PM

To use something like this, you'd need to break out the cable from the headset so it plugs into both of those jacks at the same time

#

Using this

#

Which is why it isn't working in that scenario

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:21 PM

#

i assumed that but why is not working without that I switched 2 headsets and none is working all 2 were new

#

like i said i have sound but microphone

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:22 PM

#

Your headset has a USB cable coming off it, right? What happens if you plug in just that and nothing else?
That headset has very little info on the product page so idk how it behaves between the USB & 3.5mm

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:22 PM

#

brazen karma like i said i have sound but microphone

Yep, that's expected if you don't break out the cable using the adapter I shared

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:22 PM

#

i had headset with 2 jacks 3.55 mm but was not working

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:22 PM

#

The headshet should have come with one, I got that pic from the product page

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:23 PM

#

brazen karma i had headset with 2 jacks 3.55 mm but was not working

Ok? Stay focused on one issue at a time

#

"Not working" and "Not setup properly" are different issues

#

Your headset has a USB cable coming off it, right? What happens if you plug in just that and nothing else?

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:23 PM

#

i better speak than write im sorry

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:24 PM

#

Take your time. Punctuation is your friend

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:26 PM

#

but im trying to say it was working fine month ago i had headset with 2 jacks but one day microphone stopped working i got new headset (rampage x jammer)
but still didnt work Now i got this usb soundcard but still isnt working

#

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

That would've been good to know lol

#

No, I won't VC

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

ok

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

Are you turkish? I'm only seeing docs in turkish on this headset

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:28 PM

#

#

I think you should first try what I've been saying

#

Plug in ONLY the USB cable and nothing else. Not the 3.5mm, not the sound card

#

See if the sound input/output shows up on the computer

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:30 PM

#

ok i try and i send you screenshot

#

#

here

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:35 PM

#

Do you get sound output or mic input?

#

Send a screenshot of the ENTIRE list

#

not just these single rows

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:37 PM

#

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:37 PM

#

And mic input?

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:37 PM

#

#

motherboard is b250m gigabyte just u know

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:40 PM

#

Do any of these appear/disappear when you plug in & unplug the USB?

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:42 PM

#

they dont appear/disappear when i plug in & unplug the usb

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 10:42 PM

#

Interesting

#

Well, in that case, in order to use this headset, you need a breakout cable

#

Like this

brazen karma Jul 17, 2023, 10:43 PM

#

thanks man

#

i will buy new headset with 2 jacks

#

this are shit anyway

#

but one last question If my soundcard died can i use headset like g pro with only usb right?

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 11:19 PM

#

brazen karma but one last question If my soundcard died can i use headset like g pro with onl...

Sound cards don't really work that way. I really don't think yours died.
But yes, a USB headset would not use the onboard sound controller of your motherboard

naive forge Jul 17, 2023, 11:19 PM

#

brazen karma i will buy new headset with 2 jacks

A breakout cable like the one I linked is extremely cheap and would fix everything here
