[Njtechdiv] having trouble completing the microphone setup wizard

Wed Jan 30 18:59:08 UTC 2013

Hi first no internal mic.  on the disabling of antivirus I'm running 
microsoft security essentials so it isn't running like norton of mcafee. 
the only thing running is the screen reader.  like I said it wants to 
running something.  no software came with the microphone.  so if it's 
drivers can I get them manually?

Hi lisgt members, ken here got a headset microphone for christmas.  it works 
but audio is very low and am thinking it is because of settup.  when I enter 
on set up a microphone in windows 7 the wizard come up.  the first thing is 
asking you if you are using a desktop mic or a headset mic.  I take headset 
then hit next.  it just has instructions of where to put the microphone and 
where your mouth should be.  then when I hit next what ever is trying to 
install can?t.  the progress bar fluctuates.  it maybe will go as high as 7 
or 8 percent but always falls back.  I have doublecheck to make sure the 
connection is both tight and in the right jack.  with NVDA you can hear the 
beep tones bouncing around not rising steadily.  is there something I?ve 
overlooked the microphone works the installation is incomplete.  anyone with 
ideas on this one?

Hey Ken,
Are you using software that came with the headset or letting windows install 
it? If it's software that came with the headset, try to run the setup again, 
but make sure you have nothing else running except your screen reader and 
the setup. Also, you may want to disable anti-virus software before setup, 
as that also may be part of the hang-up. Hope this helps.

It sounds like a driver issue.  Sometimes, if a computer has an internal
microphone, it will cause conflict.  I've seen this alot with windows 7
platforms.  Do you have an internal?
