Hello cri74,
I went in and checked all that you mentioned.......when I double tap caps lock, nada...but not to worry, thats becuase I have all my comms set up on different buttons. I can see various mics, for eg. one for global, one for side channel etc etc... when I talk into it, no one ever responds... and I put deodorant on this morning too...and I know my breath doesn't smell so that can't be it......strange.............plus creative says it's all working fine....so is microsoft
