Thanks guys. I've found a USB Longitech headset for a decent price...although I don't have the funds to purchase them yet...SOON, though. I had to miss my first drills, but I'll get them very soon. Thanks for the input, guys! You rock!

I can supply you with details. 1. I experience a LOT of background noise that doesn't gradually die down; it just doesn't stop...and it gets louder. 2. When I tested the mic out before starting DoD:S, it worked perfectly. It worked at the main menu of the game as well. But then when I enter a server, everything just falls apart. 3. The headset I got uses audio jacks. 4. I do not know anything about my sound card. Thank you very much for getting the ball rolling on this, Sir! The 20th is coming fast and I still need to check in as a recruit. Hopefully this is enough for a possible solution. Thanks for taking the time to help, Sir! -Rec. J. Gavin

The headset I got is a Cyber Acoustics AC-204.

Here are my laptop specs. One of the senior officers recommended I do this so here goes: Manufacturer: Dell Model: Inspiron 1545 Processor: Pentium® Dual-Core CPU RAM: 4.00 GB System Type: 64-bit operating system And the mic I bought...it was only $20 at K-mart. If that's the issue, I can try for a better one, but I've had mics work in the past that were about the same. It's a headset. Hope this helps you with a solution. Thank you, Rec. J. Gavin

Hey, guys. I just enlisted and I am excited to be a part of the unit! Only one problem: I bought a mic and it sucks. I don't think it's the mic itself, more as it's the fact that I play on a laptop...and not a particularly good one. I was wondering if I could get some assistance on this, as I am supposed to be participating in a drill on August 20th. 'Preciate it, guys! Rec. J. Gavin
