    I'm trying to use a Creative Fatality Headset (with two 3.5 jacks) on an ACER 5738G laptop running Win 7 64bit but for the life of me I can't get the microphone to work. Audio is through Realtek HD Audio.

    I've played around with the sound properties in Windows and the Realtek sound utility but it's not having any of it :mad:

    I presume you've checked the switch on the cable?

    The headset is brand new but I think it's the older model with the two 3.5 jacks

    Try putting on the line boost on your 3.5 mic jack.


    Also, is this a Vista machine?
