my PC was in bad shape, so i sent it to the servicing guy(he reinstalled the os)..and today when it came back..the first thing i thought of doing was recording a song..and poof!!! i plugged in the mic..and tried recording my voice on both audacity as well as windows sound recorder but..the result = blank!! so i tried checking the sounds and audio devices settings thru control panel..but still couldnt figure out anything...so guys if u have any clue...then gimme any and every suggestion u can possibly think of...coz i dont wanna be muted at igt soundtrack forum ..forever!! : help :help: yelp
I am just guessing well it depends on which kind of OS do u have and these setting may show differently on your computer. Here's the screen shot do check this. another thing is try starting the PC with mic connected to it.
restarting didnt work im using windows xp @itwasnotez the thing u've tried to suggest thru this screenshot...i've already enabled it! :think:
1. u can recheck if the microphone is plusgged in to the right 'line in' of the soundcard 2. Refer to: https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000281.htm 3. .... when was the last time u got ur ears checked up?
re-install ur mic.. i think.. or check ur sound card.. btw..kuch na kuch laga hi rehta hai tohre PC pe.... :
You can check whether the MIC is muted in the volume control or not. Or rather check if the MIC is ok or not. nIK!:nw:
hey open the casing of ur pc ie where u have the harddisc n all am sure that the wire which leads to ur mic port ie is probably or slightly disconnected /moved out of its place i had that prob recently ............
no the mic is not muted..i think i should try to test with a new mic.wonder how much is that gonna cost..anyways! @sPY...thats a tuff siggestion!...if new mic doesnt work..i would try that ps- guys i used2record w/o any hassles..the problem has risen only now when my PC is back after the OS reinstallation..i wonder what the servicing guy did..Grr
He must not have installed the sound drivers... Install your sound card drivers from your motherboard cd Or if he has installed, it must be a wrong driver... REgards, Zooom..!!
when mine did not work i tried all that u suggested n finally opened the casing n saw that it could have been solved in less than a min........... well do tell us if the other suggestions worked b4 u try mine
ya vins, do as ZOOM told,mera bhi wahi hua tha.....check all ur settings and sounddrivers properly..........else u can get a mic with headpone for rs.150...skip macdonalds for one evenin.......if this also does not work,.............get hold of ur service wala and beat him black and blue.....eheheh...........** prays for ur mic to get well soon ** ssh......** im still prayin **
@ zoom motherboard cd?..i didnt get any such cd when i bot this pc..though the dealer gave me 2 Cds; first CD which is labelled as "Documentation & Utilities" .. is it the one? :think: and the other is called "CRT Monitors"..that cant be..hehe! :grin: ps-Plz bear wid me as im really not at much ease wid technical problems and their troubleshooting Now temme..how should i go about installing the sound drivers..if thats the problem @abhi well....ur praying for my mic? : kya re so plzzzzzz :help:
hey HP did give cds to me ..how come u dint???..i have drivers ka file here i took frm net..but i guess they differ pc to pc..techless me too..
Check the name of your sound drivers. Then download them. Go to run < type dxdiag > click on the sound tab
