raptorr427 17 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 So out of nowhere, my microphone is not being picked up by Steam. When I go into my sound settings on my PC, the bar moves when I talk, like normal. Then when I go to Steam, the bar does not move at all. I tried to uninstall Steam and reinstall it, but that did not work. I have restarted my PC plenty of times, no luck with that either. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Thanks in advance.

Guest G.O.A.T. Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Might sound stupid, but do you have it set as your default recording device under audio settings? Quote Link to comment

It's a shame that I can't record now though. Do you know of any way to continue to use shadowplay but still have the mic working? Quote Link to comment
