OK now ivé had it with Creative and the crappy products they sell. I´ve been buying ALOT of electronic stuff over the years and all creative products have been a total disaster. mp3 players that breaks down in 6 weeks,YEA ALL 3 of THEM DID!!!, soundcards that dosnt support half of the functions stated in the manual, Crappy drivers that actually gets WORSE when updated, and now a headset with no working mic!!! Cmon a mic is pretty basic stuff but still Creative manage to screw it up. Im breaking my X-Fi soundcard in half and throwing it in the garbage along with my Fatal1ty headset and my creative 5.1 speaker system.

Creative Fatal1ty Pro Soundcard + Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

Doesn't work.
The soundcard is fine, perfect. Crystal clear!
The headset is... fine! Also crystal clear.
The MIC on the headset. Doesn't work..?
I am running Vista Home Prem 32, and i've heard that it is possible to get the mic working, but takes a while. I bought my headset today, spent all day trying to sort out the mic, while i could've been playing the Call of Duty 5 MP PC Beta with my mates, but i couldn't speak to them cause of this.
Is there any fix? I am DESPERATE to get this working. Seriously.
I word from a mod or admin would be nice..
Thanks.

Hi Pottage7,
Are you referring to this Fatal1ty Gaming Headset or the USB one?
If you have not already, please contact Customer Support so that they can help you.

Computer not regonizing Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

I bought the USB Fatal1ty gaming headset. I plugged it in and the computer doesn't regonize it. Was this supposed to come with a CD with drivers? If so, mine didn't.
Where do I find drivers?
Anyone else had this issue.
Thanks.

Hi Marnad1963,
Can you try plugging the headset to another USB port? If you have multiple USB devices, please remove them to see if it helps.

Fatal1ty Gaming headset on a Mac possible?

Hello, I've had the USB Fatal1ty gaming headset (HS-1000) for a few weeks now and love it. I'm going to be going to college soon, and my parents bought me a Macbook to take with me, but the headset doens't appear to work. The light on the cord won't come on at all. I've seen websites selling a "Mac" version of this headset, and I was wondering if there is any way to change the firmware in the ones I currently own to allow them to work with a mac? If there is any other solution besides a firmware update, I'm willing to try that also. Thanks in advance.

Using a headset needs several steps even needed if you have the latest computer or Mac OS X release. Please make sure to follow them in order.
Download the Apple Bluetooth Firmware Updater
Install it
Launch it from Applications > Utilities > Bluetooth Updater
Apply it to your adapter (takes very long).
Start the Apple Bluetooth Assistant and select Headset. Do not use anything else!
Make your headset Bluetooth visible. Look up the manual of your headset how to do that.
Now select the headset in System Preferences > Sound.
In most cases step 3 is missed. You have to start the already installed updater yourself (do not ask me why). Step 4 fails if your Bluetooth USB adapter is not supported by Apple and you have to go for a D-Link DBT-120 USB adapter.

Echoes using Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

Hello, I got Fatal1ty gaming headset and have been using it for 2 weeks maybe, but today I started to hear echoes in it while talking on ventrilo and playing games. Is it my drivers I need to update or something? The headset havent been the victim of some blows or something and wasnt broken from beginning.
Thanks

Slightly the same problem only the echoing is on a MUCH bigger scale then just hearing a normal echo. If I am listening to music or listening to anything for that matter, the sound slowly slows down until it dies out and then not a half second later a loud screeching noise comes back in it's place like it is playing the music only if you didn't know it was music you wouldn't know what the heck this noise was. I have to restart my computer for it to go back to normal. It is very garbled and echos and is so harsh on my ears I have to remove my headset until i can get it to stop.

Having trouble with Logitech Precision PC Headset -- No sound is recorded by mic

The headset/mic combo is Logitech Precision PC Headset, soundcard is SoundBlaster Li've! 5., DR Release .3.0. Drivers are up to date, and I've tried different headsets by no sound recording or sound heard. The application I've used to test this has been Teamspeak, and it is also the latest release version. I've been browsing about, and have seen that my problem doesn't seem to be an isolated one (microphone not recording/recognizing sound or poor tiny/static filled sound). So I'm hoping that someone hear can give me some advice as how to fix it (assuming it is a simple configuration issue, of course). Oh, and one other thing -- very new when it comes to messing around with the sound card and application, so please explain anything fully -- for instance, I've seen answers telling folks to mess around with their mixer settings, and I haven't a clue what they're talking about. If you require any additional info, I'll be more than happy to provide it, and thanks in advance. -Nick

Yes, I'm having a similar problem. I have a Logitech Gaming Headset, which does not work. I have Logitech Z-230 speakers and a Li've! 24 Bit SB card. I plug the red plug in the red slot and the green plug in the green slot. I can hear okay, but it doesn't record sound. I turned everything on my "Sounds and Audio Devices" in my Control Panel to my sound card and turned all the volumes up. And yet it still doesn't work. I've tried the headset on my phone and it works, so it's not broken. Any ideas?

Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset - USB or 3.5mm stereo miniplugs

Hello!
I'm from Germany and my english is very bad, sorry.
My Question: I will buy a new headset and I found the Creative Fatal1ty.
But I can buy but it with USB or 3.5mm stereo miniplugs.
Which is better? In my PC is a Crative X-Fi Xtreme Music, so I think the variant which 3.5mm stereo miniplugs is better, right?
Yours sincerely

Inspire P7800 + X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty + Fatal1ty Gaming Headset?

Hello, I am in need of a new audio system for my PC/Xbox 360.
The ideal setup for me is to have the sound card in my PC, using the headset for most activities such as gaming, while using the speakers to watch TV and movies and play the Xbox 360. Since I get TV through my computer already, I figure that shouldn't be a problem. However, a couple questions I have are:
1. Do the P7800 speakers have an optical input?
2. If not, is it possible to plug an optical line from the Xbox into the card and have the card output surround sound through the 3.5mm connections to the speakers?
3. Is it possible to connect the headset and speakers at the same time to the soundcard?
Thanks in advance.

thx man, im really appreciated about that. i was close to sell my card cause i got so much problems with it.. but now when i read your sentence, i guess there is now alot hope to enjoy bugfree with my soundcard in the future

Hs-1000 vs Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

Besides the Hs-1000 using USB and having its own driver with its own control panel. What is the difference between the two? Does it really matter which one you get if you have a x-fi card like the xtremegamer all ready, in terms of sound quality? And does it fit better? is the HS-1000 smaller? or are they just exactly the same but one is USB and a stand alone device?
Message Edited by Phantom93 on 04-21-2009 08:21 PM

found another humming sound, got that fixed by getting my computer grounded/earthened with copper wire onto a heating pipe.
the modem sound appeared to be a constant sound (tick-tick-tick-tritick-tick) plus some background noise which i was able to fix by unchecking the mic boost option.

Fatality USB gaming headset problem

My headset is connected via the usb cord to the computer. It has worked perfect until now. Whenever I start a program or check the volume settings for the microphone it simply turns off. The LED light on the controller turns off as well. For example, if I go into sound settings in vista and click on the "recording tab" the led light turns off. The led light is on whenever I do other things and I can hear sounds all the time. If I go into skype and connect a call the led light also turns off and people can't hear me. What can I do about this?
Please help me out guys
//Fredrik

Short answer seems to be that you are pretty much S.O.L.
I purchased the same headset, non-USB version, about 15 months ago. Having my own microphone issue but customer service cites a 12 month warranty and won't help.

Bad mic with Fatal1ty Professional Series Gaming Headset MkII

I bought the Fatal1ty Professional Series Gaming Headset MkII about 2 weeks ago and since then, people have been telling me it looks like a talk thru a pillow. I use Teamspeak mostly and i dont know if the problem exist with the other communication programs. Its plugged into an ASUS G73 laptop. I never had that problem before with my 30$ logitech headset. I have tried playing with most settings but the problem still remains. I can hear everything perfectly but the mic just dosnt seem to work properly.
Anyone could help me with this? Thanks

Hi,
Sorry about the mic issue, please write to our Customer Support. They will help you from there.

Is the Fatal1ty USB Gaming Headset HS-1000 for Mac compatible with a PC?

Hi,
I mistakenly purchased the Fatal1ty USB Gaming Headset HS-1000 for Mac instead of the PC version.
Are these still compatible with my PC even though they say "for Mac"? They have a USB connector just like my headphones and I have had people say that they "should" work, but I wanted to verify this.
I already had one pair that I purchased a while back for my PC and they work great but my wife wanted these also and I didn't realize there were two versions. If they will still work with a PC, I will just keep them. I just didn't want to open them up and find out that they don't.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I found something else out , the MIC is recoginized at startup when i have the problem , but not the headphones .
