Here is a site that may help with some of these problems. Â http://forums.gameclubcentral.com/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=tech
I had the same problem with BattleCom and XP. Â It can be solved by using "Alternate playback and record" setting in coms setup.
I also had a problem in that I could not independly control coms and game volume. Â I solved it in this manner.
BattleCom Setup For Separate Game and Coms Volume Control
Enable onboard sound system on mother board.
Connect onboard line-out to line-in of your addon sound card.
Select onboard system for play back in BattleCom.
You can use either your onboard or sound card for recording.
Connect mike to the system you choose and select in BattleCom.
Now you can independitly control volume of game and BattleCom.
Note, that under windows volume control, Options, Properties
you can select which sound system you want to set sliders on.
This works great on my system and voice sound quality on BattleCom
is improved over using the alternate playback and record modes.
