Switching to Game mode: no MIC in

I've got this annoying problem:
When I use Mode Switcher (that program where there is a thread about here) or manually switch mode (which in the end is the same since mode switcher just simulates some mouse clicks) to Game Mode, my microphone on Mic2 isn't working. If I switch back to Entertainment mode (I only use Entertainment and Game mode and Entertainment is my default) the mic is back again.
I've checked about twenty times if the recording device wasn't changed and I even run a program that changes the recording device to mic2/linein2 every 30 seconds (some games switch the recording device automatically so this program is really sweet) but still got no sound input from the microphone. I first thought it was because I had already a recording program (like TeamSpeak) running, but that wasn't true. Everytime I switch to Game mode, the microphone on mic2 isn't working.
I also tried switching to an other input device and back again with no success.
The breakout box seems to be still switched on (the optical light is burning and I can hear perfectly with the headset).
I just tested to see if the port Microphone would work, and it does work! but since that is on the back of my computer, I want to use the front mic. And of course, it just should be working.
I've had this problem since a couple of weeks now. Before that it only sometimes happened and with a reboot everything was fine again (sometimes now it is too, but the problem occurs much more frequently).
Please help!
Update: it was working again, at least I thought, when I reinstalled the drivers. But after another switch, it didn't work anymore and I still can only use my front mic in Entertainment mode. I now almost am positivly sure it is driver related.Message Edited by TheVirus on 05-27-2006 02:45 AM

I'm having a simular problem, I cant get my mic to work in game mode.
I downloaded updated drivers and installed them, but now I cant get that thing by my clock were you can swich modes and have the mixer; however, I can still switch modes in the audio console.
When in entertainment mode my mic sounds fine. When in gameing mode my mic will work some times, but I will get very bad chopy sounds, but most of the times it wont even work.
Reguardless even if I'm in entertainment mode my mic will just stop working at times, and may start working again later. And no its not my mic because i tried another one that I know works.
I'm ready to take out my sound card and smash it!
Any ideas?Message Edited by BattleFish on 05-30-2006 09:27 PM

Game mode swither, Won't switch!!! (X-

I have just recently come across this problem, while switching to Game mode on my X-fi soundcard a message pops up that reads "You need to restart your computer before the new mode of your audio device will take effect. Do you want to restart your computer now?"
I hit YES to restart and nothing happens. It will just sit there like I never pressed yes. This has recently just came up for the first time. I have no idea where it came from, can someone please help me?

Well, do as the diagram indicates: Connect your iPhone to your computer and restore via iTunes.

IPhone 5s won't switch to landscape mode

I have the iPhone 5s (32GB) and the software currently being used is up to date (IOS 7.1.1).
My problem is that my phone won't switch to landscape mode. When I take pictures, it won't turn over, and all other apps, even when I play games like Temple Run, it won't allow the character to move side to side.
I have checked to see if my phone's orientation lock is on, which it is not. I have done a hard reset which did not fix it. I also did a restore where I restored it completely and set it up as a new phone, and restored it and set it up with a backup. Nothing has helped it!!
I don't know what to do, and would much rather figure it out than go to the Apple Store and get it looked at. If you have any knowledge or anything that can potentially help resolve this issue, i'd be very much appreciated!!
Thanks

MSI R9 290 How to switch between Gaming Modes?

Hi, I just got a MSI R9 290... with Afterburner installed. This card has 3 preset modes that are supposed to be easy to switch between OC Mode 1007Mhz, Gaming 974Mhz, Silent 947Mhz... How do I switch between modes? I just tried to up the MHz in Afterburner and must have done something wrong, becuase I froze everything instalntly and had to reboot. Can someone please advise me how to switch between these modes? Do I have the right software installed, Afterburner or is there another suite specificly for this card? I did not install the card, and sorry I am a noob when it comes to OC. . . Noob to gaming in general, but I am getting some pretty bogus 30FPS on a 2012 game, LA Noire, which shouldnt even be demanding for t

You need the Gaming APP for switching (not Afterburner): http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/gamingApp.zip
Afterburner is for manual overclocking (for advanced users) if not using the modes.

Audio from headphones gets distorted when switched to "entertainment mode" w

the sound quality from my headphones gets messed up whenever I switch to "entertainment mode." when i say "messed up," i mean the volume would constantly fluctuate from really high to just noise then high again.
however, when i switch it to "game mode" all the problems disappear.
why are my headphones (sennheiser pc50) not compatible with "entertainment mode?"
i have a creative x-fi xtrememusic card.

I had a similar problem using X-Fi Fatalty. By similar I mean everything worked until switching to entertainment mode. When in entertainment mode all audio had a horrible amount of loud static and noise riding on it. This wasn't limited to headphones though as the same occurred using my 2. speaker system. I was using the latest driver, from June of '06 I believe.
I rolled back to the driver on my install CD (version 5.2.2.43 dated 8/8/2005)and it solved the issue.

If I'm following correctly, double tap the home button. Then slide the bar on the bottom of your screen to your right where you'll see the ipod icons and and a black icon on the left. If you see an image of a lock on the black icon, it means that you are locked in portrait orientation. Simply tap the icon to unlock it and that should free up landscape mode.

Make sure it's not in Portrait mode. Double-click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar, go to the left, the leftmost icon should be an empty square. Click it to turn on or off Portrait mode.

My iPhone 4S won't switch to landscape mode

Alas, this did not help me. I don't have an Orientation Button or any Icon that would help in this endeavor. At the bottom of my Iphone 4s, there are 3 icons: Phone, Mail and Safari. That's it. I can't get those icons to move.
What is it you're trying to do? If you're looking for orientation lock in iOS 7, swipe up from the bottom of your phone to access control center. Orientation lock is the top right icon.

Apps won't switch to landscape mode

Many of my apps won't switch to landscape mode (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Yelp). I know that landscape works on my phone because Photos, Messages, Calculator, etc. will switch to landscape mode. Also, I don't have the portrait lock on. The apps used to switch to landscape - what's up? Could it be because of the new update?

Then the next steps in user troubleshooting are restore from backup, and if necessary restore as new. I would also ask, have you checked to make sure that the Orientation Lock is not on? Check in the status bar to see if you see a small padlock with a circular arrow around it next to the battery status. If so, you turn this off from the Control Center. Swipe upwards from off the bottom of the screen, then Orientation Lock is on the top row all the way to the right. White is on, black is off. I have also read that there is a screen zoom setting, either in Display & Brightness or Wallpaper. I don't have an iPhone 6, so I cannot compare. Supposedly in the zoom setting, it can prevent some things from happening, and I believe landscape orientation was one of them.

I appreciate your help.

Switching to clamshell mode while running

I like to switch between clamshell mode and using the powerbook as a secondary display quite often. But I can't figure out how to switch my powerbook into clamshell mode without first putting it to sleep by closing the lid, and then unplugging and re-plugging in the external display and input devices, which is a hassle (and cancels any current network transfers).
I know I can just dim the powerbook's screen until the backlight switches off, but the display is still active, and using up some of the video memory.
Is there any way to do this?
PowerBook G4 (15-inch) Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Thank you but that wasn't what I was asking.
I can run the powerbook in clamshell mode just fine. However, right now I have the powerbook open (and running) and an external display connected with the desktop spanned across both the powerbook monitor and the external display.
What I would like to do is run the powerbook in clamshell mode without putting it to sleep and waking it back up.
For example, if I'm transferring several gig over the network and decide I want to go into clamshell mode (from screen-spanning mode) I can't do so without cancelling the network transfer.
