Headset isn't recognized by computer and audio doesn't go through headset

When I plug the Microsoft Lifechat LX-3000 into my computer, the computer does not recognize the device and therefore the audio of the computer does not channel to the headset. Do I need special software to install the headset? What do I do?

With the infamous Vista, try:
Start --> Control panel --> Hardware and sound --> Sound --> Audio devices admin [I have a Spanish OS, I hope it is the same in the English version], then assign as default device the headset.

With Skype and other sw, you have to specifically pick the lx-3000 as the device that will be used as audio device (and the same has to be done to use the mic).

Pretty cumbersome....

I solved the problem by going to Control Panel- Hardware/Sound-Manage Audio Devices and setting the headphones as default.

Have Windows XP and Lifechat LX-1000 headset with traditional audio plugs. Can't seem to find the driver (and no advise came with the product!). Only obvious microsoft download was Windows7 and...

Hey! If you try to install this does it work properly?
http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/7/0/F70FBF72-2AAB-4D60-9E49-7B015E8E5851/LifeChat1_4.exe
Otherwise did it come with an installation cd?

I can't get my Apple Macintosh to recognize my Microsoft Lifechat headphone/microphone set.

From the image, it looks like this has a cable (not Bluetooth). Is that correct? If it's a USB headset, it should Just Work. Go to System Preferences > Sound, and click on the Input tab: choose the USB headset, and then do likewise for Output.

Broken wire to my microphone on my lifechat lx-3000

You cant wire then directly there is a USB D-A chip that controls the headset converting to 1/8" mini plugs may work one for the mic and one stereo plug for the earcups
