New build is working fine. (almost)

[Warpspasm]

I just put all my stuff together and it's working fine! The only thing that isn't working (from what I see so far) is my Plantronics DSP 500 headset. It's a USB headset/microphone that used to work perfectly when I plugged it into my USB port before. Now, when I plug it in I hear (through the external speakers) the familiar "ding-donk" that you get when you plug in a USB device, but no sound comes out of the headset. Weird.

Do you have any of the yellow warning marks in the device manager?

 

[Warpspasm]

Nope, everything is nice a clean. No yellow exclamation points.

Hard drives were taken out of my old build and put into this one. I uninstalled the drivers for the GPU, Chipset and Audio on the old PC before I took out the drives.

 

[Warpspasm]

Nope. USB only.

Did you install the software that comes with the headset?

 

[Warpspasm]

I was afraid somebody'd ask that. I think it came with software, but I can't find it. Not even on the mfg. site.

Always do a clean windows install when replacing major components such as a mobo, otherwise your asking for problems.

I've never had a problem with a repair install on an old drive / new mobo.

 

[Warpspasm]

No, me either. As long as you make sure to get rid of old drivers that might conflict with the new hardware.

I was afraid somebody'd ask that. I think it came with software, but I can't find it. Not even on the mfg. site.

Call technical support of the manufacturer and ask for a CD.

 

[Warpspasm]

I just did. They said the software that came with it was all optional stuff and the phones work on windows drivers alone. I guess I need to go into the Device Manager and delete all of the USB devices and let it find them again.

 

[evongugg]

Check your control panel sound options also. Turn up the volume and disable mute options.

I kept fooling around with it and finally got it to work.
