no, it means that it doesn't recognize your machine/user id.\n\ncheck the sound with the sound recorder accessory from Start->Accessories.

it might be problem with your sound card device, probably something that has to do with the mic, don't how to solve it extactly but i think you go to control panel, under sounds..... and check areound to see whether you will find anything that might be wrong

Possible Things To Check:\nGo To Sub-Menu CONTROL PANELS - SOUNDS AND AUDIO DEVICES\n It is possible that one of the MUTE check boxes may be\nchecked. Uncheck the boxes if checked.\n On many computers there are two holes next to each other   for SOUND plug-in and MICROPHONE plug-in. You may have this mixed up, check this.\n Check for updated drivers by doing the following...\nGo to "START" Sub-Menu and access Application "RUN". Type in "compmgmt.msc" and hit "OK" button. In this application go to "device manager" and double check the "sound" sub-menu for a yellow triangle symbol. If you see one, you need to update the driver, this will sound the problem.\n\nThis is what I recommend :)

I would reinstall your audio driver. If you have Windows XP, you can type 'dxdiag' in 'run', for more information.

You should have 2 jacks on your headset, one for your mic and one for the headphones.\n\nTake out your main speaker connector and put the headphone connector in that socket

Start with the obvious and work forward. Are your speakers connected? Turned on? Have power? Check your drivers. Go to www.pcpitstop.com and run their free diagnostic. If none of this works, restore your computer to the last date that your sound worked. Go to, Programs, System Tools, System restore.......good luck

U mean "Your audio devices don't work properly". If yes,\nYou'll have to get the audio installation CD (given with piece). If you don't have the CD you'll have to download its driver from its company site

Check if your speakers are plugged in properly. If that is the case, your sound card might not be working. Sometimes, I have to re-install my driver for it.

Some USB devices require to be pluged while you are installing the driver (for example an All-In-One HP printer) when it's plugged nothing happens .. but when you install its driver .. during the installation it asks you to plug your device in order to finish the installation process successfully .. so if you have a CD that came with the headset .. try installing the software for it first.\n\nSecond, Make sure that the USB device itself is malfunction free and ready to be used .. if not .. get it back to where you baught it from.\n\nthird, Make sure that your USB ports on the back of your computer case are connective and working properly -- this can be done by testing the port with devices that you know they are okay and working properly (like a USB keyboard or whatsoever) if it functioned okay .. then your ports are okay .. \n\nFourth, Go to your device manager and check for the proper driver for the USB controllers .. maybe that's the problem .. if that's it .. refer to your main board manual to install the controller's driver from the CD that came with your mainboard.\n\n\nNot to mention that you should make sure that your audio card has it's driver installed and the sound is coming out of the computer

HI,\nTry to remove your Sound card driver and get a newer version from the site, because it may be a conflict with the windows especially if you download micrsoft batches from internet.

Try making sure all connections are plugged in correctly, mute isnt on and if all fails try looking at your sound card try downloading a new driver for it.

Check your connections and make sure they are connected correctly.\n\nHow long did you have your speakers for?\nIts possible that you might need to get new speakers. All hardware has a life limit. Some just last longer than others. \n\nI can help you if you lost sound or if your sound card is not working correctly, but static speakers is a hardware problem.\n\nEdit: Hmm maybe its conflicting with another hardware. Do you have any webcams or mics attached to your computer? Try pulling the jack out and plug it in again. Remove any magnetic devices that might be screwing with your computer. TAke out any additional hardware and see if that helps, like a webcam or mic, etc.\n\nIs it both speakers? If its just one, maybe you can just mute one of them and just use the other one.

In the bottom right hand corner of your desktop screen (near the time) you should see a little speaker looking image. Double left click it. That'll bring up some audio settings. Go up to Options then click on Properties. At the bottom, screen down and make sure "Microphone" is checked. Click OK. Now you should see the microphone settings on your volume settings. The Microphone slider should be in the middle (keep it there or move it up). Also, make sure mute is unchecked. That's usually the thing that's wrong with mics.\n\nTo test your mic, go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Entertainment -> Sound Recorder. Click on the little red button and speak into the mic.\n\nAlso, make sure your green plug is plugged into the green input on your pc, and the red is plugged into the red.\n\nThere may also be a sound card program installed on your computer that is "taking over" audio controls from the default windows one. Try to find that one (Creative?) and go to their settings.

Per your other question, you need to restore the audio driver first.
