Turtle beach x12 and Windows 10

samanthadocekal · Jan 29, 2016

I have owned my turtle beach x12 headset for a long while now and I used them hundreds of times on my previous laptop. My slightly older Vizio laptop with Windows 8 only had one 3.5mm port so I bought a y splitter to connect the headset to it. The splitter and the headset worked perfectly together on the Vizio. Unfortunately I had to get rid of that laptop and I now have a Dell inspiron with Windows 10. I went to go on Skype and I discovered that I could hear my boyfriend but he couldn't hear me. Nothing we have tried has gotten my mic to pic up sounds and I can't seem to find any solutions online. Any help will be greatly appreciated thank you!
