Is it possible to fix the issue?<\/h3>\n
\n\n

It’s possible to fix the issue completely by just reinstalling firmware\/configuring it correctly. However, without using Realtek audio drivers. Unfortunately, there aren’t any (and probably never be) alternatives for this chip.
This solution should also apply to other computers and headsets that use a standard headset output that works on other operating systems as well (e.g., Linux).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Reasons Why Logitec Mic May Not Work <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1). Microphone muted <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This might be the reason due to which you are not receiving any response back from anyone while using the Logitech h390 headset. <\/strong>You will have to check your computer’s sound settings and then enable the microphones that are present in the device list by checking the “show disabled devices” box. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then click on the \u201capply” button and then again click on “OK” to ensure that the device is enabled properly. Suppose this doesn’t help to resolve the issue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In that case, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling your audio driver, as it might be possible that the mic was disabled after installing a fresh copy of Windows OS on your machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2). Device not connected<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This might be because your computer did not detect the headset, and hence “no device” is displayed in front of all other devices. You will have to check if all the cables are plugged into their respective sockets correctly and then restart both computers and the Logitech h390 headset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this step does not work, you can try using another USB port, as either of them might have stopped functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3). Device malfunction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It might be possible that the computer does not detect your device even after plugging it into a working USB port because of an internal hardware issue in your Logitech H390 headset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In such a case, you will have to check if the product’s warranty has expired and then contact their support team for further assistance. They might ask you to validate the product’s warranty before providing help related to this matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Driver not installed properly<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Suppose all of the steps mentioned above fail to resolve the issue. In that case, there might be some problem with audio drivers, which are responsible for providing input and output audio devices functionality on Windows machines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will have to uninstall and then reinstall the compatible sound driver with your Logitech h390 headset. To uninstall and then install the device drivers, you will have to perform the following steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go to the control panel and click on the \u2018sound’ underperformance and maintenance category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click on the sound devices tab and select “properties.” A new window should pop up where you should see a list of all installed audio devices, including your Logitech h390 headset. You need to right-click on them one by one and then choose ‘uninstall’. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note that only your current driver will be uninstalled; it means if there was more than 1 Logitech H390 device installed on your computer, only the primary (the first one) would be uninstalled and then you would have to install the backup one by right-clicking on “driver” and choose “update driver”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once all devices are uninstalled, restart your computer. This will reinstall all audio drivers for computers. After the restart, plug your headset into a USB port and launch ‘sound’ from the control panel. All installed audio devices, including your Logitech H390 headset, should now be in the list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right-click on it and select ‘properties. Then click on the \u2018advanced’ tab, and under that, select the \u201cDriver” tab, where you should choose either 32-bit or 64-bit, depending on whichever version of Windows OS is installed on your system (32 or 64). Finally, hit apply button so that changes go into effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5). Driver is incompatible<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This might be because you installed an old version of the Logitech H390 headset’s driver on your Windows PC, or you forgot to uninstall an older version before installing a newer one. In such a case, you will have to uninstall all old versions and then reinstall them,, as discussed in point 4 above. B<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ut make sure that the latest driver is compatible with your Logitech h390 headset as per its hardware specifications; otherwise, it might lead to device malfunction, which was discussed in point 3 above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
