Okey, so i recently installed Windows 7 and then when i tried to use my microphone (on my Steelseries 4H headset) it didn't work. In the "Sound" there is no Recording devices.

*Edit*
I've already updated all my sound drivers and such.

do you have some other microphone you could try...
are you plugging in the headset to a gaming keyboard or directly into to the computer jacks...
you could try vista drivers for Steelseries 4H headset and see if they will work...
nojoy...
you may not be able to get the drivers you need until windows 7 is released to the public...then the hardware manufactures will write drivers for their hardware

No i don't have any other microphone (it does work i'm 100% sure) it's plugged in directly to my computer...

I haven't found any drivers for Vista, if you could please link them for me. (there's no requirements according to their website and when i had win XP i didn't have to install any driver of some sort)
