Hi Richard. Yes it will, you can get a cable which doubles up as input and output though, the headset that comes with my Dragon software is supplied with one though I don't know what they’re called in the technical lingo. If you are planning on using an external mike with the 3.5MM connection, you can configure the laptop’s sound socket to act as an input or even a line in. All the best, Ibrahim.

I've never been able to work out whether this doubles as an in as well as a line out. Any ideas?

Yes, as soon as I unplug the mike the sound comes back, I’ve checked the sound card and the volume is set to 100%, mute is off and the default audio output source is Realtek so its definitely not tampered with my sound settings. All the best, Ibrahim.

Has plugging in the Mike altered any of your sound card settings? - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: Ibrahim Gucukoglu To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, January 25, 2013 9:45 AM Subject: [access-uk] Trouble with a USB mike Hi Everyone. Wonder if anyone can help here. I recently purchased the Blue Microphones Tiki USB microphone for my new Samsung laptop running Windows 7 64-bit. Whenever i plug the microphone in to my computer, all sounds including system and screen reader simply stop. I have tried to figure out what the problem might be but with little success. I have tried connecting an external sound card to restore speech while the microphone is plugged in, I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the device using device manager, nothing is doing. If anyone has a solution to this problem then please advise, otherwise this microphone is going straight back to Amazon. All the best, Ibrahim.
