This may be caused by your audio settings. To fix this issue, do the following:

1. Open Sounds and Audio Devices in the Control panel (Start > Control Panel > Sounds and Audio Devices).

2. Select the Audio tab.

3. Verify that your Sound Recording default device is set to G35 (shown below):

   

4. Open Sound Recorder application (Start > Programs > Accessories > Entertainment > Sound Recorder).

5. Test record a sound and play it back. If you can hear the audio and/or see the green bar moving, then the microphone is working properly.

Additional Information:

• If people are unable to hear you in a specific game, check the game settings to ensure that the G35 is correctly set up in that game or 3rd party chat program such as Yahoo or Skype.

• If you are using a chat application (Yahoo, Skype, etc), check the chat application’s settings to ensure that the G35 is selected as the correct audio device.
