"I had the same problem initially, and I even have the same motherboard as you. <= some say this one works, some say it doesn't Razer Kraken USB - Essential Surround Sound Gaming Headset if your's aren't USB, then that isn't it.
When you tell me to install Windows 7 USB drivers you are keeping in mind that the Kraken Pro is not a USB headset, right?ĭne0gen, the complaint I recalled, that the USB 3.0 wasn't working with the Kraken USB headphones. I don't know if that is enough to get the Kraken to work on Windows 8.1, but it might be worth a try. I have found a procedure to install the Windows 7 USB drivers onto Windows 8/8.1, and I tried it on my G750JH, and it works. What headphones do you use with your g750? Users that have downgraded to Windows 7 report the Kraken works, here is a post: I have tried boosting the mic, I have done everything that could be done software side(or so I think).ĭne0gen, if you search through the forums you will find noone has made the Kraken work with Windows 8.1 - it is the Intel USB drivers, which after Windows 7 Intel doesn't release - and the Microsoft ones don't work right. It works only when I uninstall the drivers. The headset has been tested and works on other laptops flawlessly but doesn't work on mine. The only difference between the two headsets is that the HP mic jack has 1 ring, and the Razer mic has 2. When I uninstall my audio drivers the razer mic works, but as you would expect having no drivers leads to other issues. If I scream really loudly you can barely hear some sort of robotic sound. But when I use a cheap HP headset it works. When I install the audio drivers for my laptop my Razer Kraken Pro mic doesn't work.
