I just updated to windows 8 from 7 and my mic sounds awful now. i only had this mic for a few days and was great in win7, no static/background noise and my voice is clear. but now that i have upgraded to windows 8 (at first it wouldnt even work but i did some driver installing and it began working) it has horrible background static, the static almost overpowers my voice. help??

probably the wrong driver. keep looking for the right one, and make sure it is win 8 compatible.
