Struggling with Voice Chat Setup on My New PC

-

Hey everyone! I’m new to PC gaming and it’s my first day with my setup. I’m having a tough time with voice chat—specifically, I can’t hear my friends, and they can’t hear me either. I’ll share my build details soon, but I really need some help getting this sorted. Thanks for any advice you can offer!

Check that your headset is properly connected and recognized by your PC. Sometimes it can be a simple plug issue. Also, ensure the volume settings for both input and output are turned up!

Make sure you’ve selected the correct input and output devices in your sound settings. Sometimes, it’s just a matter of your mic not being set up to the right headset. Good luck!
