USB Mic in Windows XP not recognised

I have a Plantronics Gamecom Pro 1 USB headset with mic that is supposed to work with both Windows XP and Mac OSX. It works on the OSX side of my Intel iMac but isn't recognised on the XP side (Bootcamp drivers all installed). I get sound to the earphones but my voice isn't coming through to the computer.
I've never been a Windows user so maybe there is something I haven't done to let XP see it? Anyone know how to set this up?
Thanks

Is there anyone who knows the networking workings in Leopard to help me identify the problem??
I have no modem problem, since I can use the same system in dual boot with Windows XP. The problem must be a file or a setting in Leopard that is blocking my connection to the internet.
I dunno, it could be related to Java or how some scripts are executed by the operating system.
If I don't solve this one, I'll have to reinstall the whole system again. Come on, help me guys!

  • IPod Nano: Error Message "The USB device has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it"

    Hi everyone, I just received 2 brand new iPod Nanos for my kids for Christmas, thought I'd be smart and sync them both now before wrapping them so I don't have to be messing around with them on the day. One synced without a problem, then using the same cable, same computer, same USB port, the 2nd one came up with "The USB device has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it" I've tried restarting my computer, unplugging and reinserting the USB. Is there anthing else I can try before returning it? Thanking you for any help.

    I have solved my problem, I ended up ringing Apple and got an awesome lady who told me to reset it by pressing the sleep button and menu button together for about 10 seconds and once it actually turned on for the first time the computer then recognised it, so it's all good, :-) Thank you lovely lady!

    First, please disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:
    1. Click "Start" button, type “devmgmt.msc” (without quotation marks) in the “Search” bar and press "Enter". Click “Continue”
    if necessary.
    2. In Device Manager, double click to expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers", right click on the Host Controller, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
    3. Repeat the step 2 to uninstall all items under "Universal Serial Bus controllers".
    Then, restart your computer and Windows 7 will reinstall all USB controllers automatically.
    If the issue persists, please check if it can be resolved by running
    System File Checker.

  • WHY, when I have nothing plugged in does Windows flag up a USB device that is does not recognise?

    WHY, when I have nothing plugged in does Windows flag up a USB device that is does not recognise?  When I check it a box comes up which offers a diagram that does not tell me which port it is?  How do I check which port/outlet it actually is? Could
    there be software (rather than a USB port) in my system that Microsoft doesn't recognise? The Windows defender scan shows nothing and the Windows reporter said twice now there are 10 problems but they can't report back right now.  Should
    I be worried?  What should I do?  Everything I want to do within the operating system seems to be working and my speed hasn't noticeably changed.  Can anyone help?
    PS What is code 43?  Also it says Broadcom 270 Bluetooth is disabled, what does that do?  Should I enable it, won't it allow Bluetooth access, which I don't need?  The scanning of hardware seems to say Hardware changes may not have been detected
    as well as Unknown Device is not working properly.

  • IPod is charging and recognised by windows, but not recognised by iTunes.

    There was an error message but stupidly I did not read it, and it won't come up again. I've tried restarting my laptop, re-installing iTunes, restarting my iPod and all sorts.
    The reason (I think) it stopped working was because I was trying to copy music from my iPod to my iTunes, and windows was not recognising it, so a friend suggested deleting and re installing the driver, which was successful. But when I then went on to iTunes, it came up with the error message saying something about the iPod no longer working with iTunes or something, and now won't recognise the iPod no matter what I seem to try.
    Is there anything I can do without deleting all the music and resetting the iPod? Because the whole reason I was trying to do this was to back up the music so I could update to ios 5.1 or whatever it is, without losing all my music which I don't have on iTunes as it's a new laptop.
    Thank you.

    Try here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    It will not delete your library.

  • Windows Vista not recognising my 5th Gen 30gb iPod

    I recently lost my USB lead for my iPod and purchased one from eBay which was for a 5th generation iPod or iPhone... When I plugged in my iPod with this cable, a message box popped up to say that my "USB Device Not Recognised" and that it had malfunctioned. I have tried both my USB ports, resetting the iPod, updating the iTunes software, checking that the USB power is on, updating drivers.
    The iPod is charging when plugged into the laptop.
    Is there anything else I can try before trying to find another new cable?!

    I would just hurry and get a new cable, but start with these articles and see if that gets you anywhere...

  • Itunes on windows does not recognise ipad

    iTunes on my windows xp pc does not always recognise my iPad.  Also, the icon in the task bar which indicates when a usb device is attached, does not appear.
    Neither of these problems appear when I attach my iPod.
    Any suggestions will be welcome
    Robin

    The iPad, iPod Touch and iPhone do not appear as external drives which is why they do not show up in your Task Bar as externals the way an iPod will do if the option "Manually manage music…" has been checked. With that option selected the option "Enable disk use…" automatically becomes available which means that you can drag files to the unused portion of the drive. This is not the case with the devices mentioned above. As to the recognition of your iPad by iTunes you might want to check to see that the connection is firmly in place each time that you mount it onto the computer-- both the computer USB connection and the Apple Dock connector.

  • USB Mic Shows up but not working

    I have a USB mic to be used for dictation. When I had Tiger it would show up and when I would select it as an input device I would get "bars" on the sound control panel, but never really worked for recording. Now on Snow Leopard it shows up on my device list, but I can't actually use it as an input or output device, no sound comes out. It is a Philips SpeechMike II and I know that they don't have a mac driver. However, I didn't know if anybody has any suggestions to get it to work. It is essentially the only thing left that doesn't work on my Mac (vs a work PC). I have tried the Linein software with no success. Any suggestions??? Thanks.

    Does it show up in the "Input" tab of "Sound" system preference? If you move the volume slider to the right, does sound make the bars move? You can record with QuickTime Player. Select "New Audio Recording" in its "File" menu. Move the volume slider to the right in the recording window to hear the microphone.

  • 'USB device malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it'

    This started happening today. So I went on the Apple website to try and find a solution. I looked on all the troubleshooting advice it gave, including restarting my iPod, reinstalling iTunes, restarting my computer, I've tried everything to try and get it to connect to my computer again, but unfortunately nothing is working. Then I went to the last resort of restoring my iPod, got it into disk mode, but my computer still wouldn't recognise it so, I couldn't even restore it. My iPod is basically new, I only got it for Christmas 2010 and I'm always careful with it. I don't know if it might be something to do with the drivers needed to recognise my iPod or if it's the actual iPod, but I have no idea how to go about fixing it. Please help me!

    yea
            In some cases you might have to change the Usb cable, change the usb port,  check if the computer drivers and properly installed, restart the computer and relaunch itunes again to restore. i dont know if you also used this but click on this link and you might see you solution      http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567
