Contact
your vendor for more information.
 
WTF!?!
 
 
I isntalled the drivers afromthre audigy cd and then updates the drivers from the sblive site.
 
 
the sound works, in games, music..etc..just not the voice. well it acutally does if i unmute the mic, my voice is fine.
 
 
My prob is I cannot use the mic for voice in games, for example half-life.
 
 
what is going on?

OP
n/m, ifound out how to fix it
 
someone sent me this from another forum, not sure with one
 
1) Install latest Audigy drivers.
2) Lower the hardare acceleration on your soundcard with the slider so that it is one greater than being all the way to the left.
3) Start up Game Voice and run the test hardware thing.
4) It passes and you're done.
5) You will be able to go back and raise back up hardware acceleration now
 
 
 
 
it is working now. i hope they fix this in the next fdriver updates
