"Wizard cannot launch: No Audio Input Device Found. make sure your audio hardware is working properly and check your audio configuration in the audio devices and sound themes control panel"
For whatever reason, my computer has decided to STOP being able to see my microphone as an active/plugged in device. I have never had a problem with this in the past. Roughly a week ago, it was working and nothing to my knowledge has changed (Not sure how that works...). I hadn't used it since then until I tried yesterday and it couldn't be found.
No, it isn't the microphone. I tried two others (Both a standard USB mic and a headset with green/red inputs) and neither could be found. The weird part is that I can see the red light glowing, meaning that it's getting power. When I tried the headset mic, I could hear through the headset and all was working fine except the mic.
I went to the windows "Sound" control panel, right clicked, and showed disabled devices. The only ones that are there are:
Microphone - Realtek High Definition Audio (Not plugged in)
CD Audio - Realtek High Definition Audio (Disabled)
Stereo Mix - Realtek High Definition Audio (Disabled)
I enabled the last two and tried the wizard again, and much to my surprise, the wizard began to work and let me set up my mic. Unfortunately, the mic still wasn't recognized and while I seemed to make progress, my voice could not be picked up.
I checked for updates, and there was one for a USB audio Driver. I got super excited and updated it, restarted. Nothing. I updated the two other "Important" updates available, restarted. Nothing.
I tried recovering to an earlier computer state of about a week ago, restarted. Nothing. After posting this I will attempt to do this once more to an even earlier state in hopes that I just didn't go back far enough.
Could this be my sound card failing? My computer isn't THAT old, but I have been having various troubles in the past with it, but nothing really all that close to this.
Any help offered would be greatly appreciated.
