Zx-6000 Lifechat

[Guest]

I'm trying to use this headset but can't get the mic to work!. I can't seem
the find any support information and this headset anywhere. Does this only
work with msn messenger?.. anyone know of a support forum for this product?

Greetings,

Quite honestly, the ZX-6000 leaves a lot to be desired. The sound quality is very poor for
me (no one can hear me) and the headset is not usable in any application (Skype, Messenger,
Sound Recorder whatever). To answer your question directly, yes you can use it in any
application.

You can also use the receiver to connect other Xbox 360 accessories like controllers to your
PC.

I have three wireless headsets sitting on my desk, and this one is by-far the worst.

If you look at other reviews on say Amazon, you'll see exactly the same. I'd return if you
can.

I also have a similar problem with my ZX-6000. When I plug in the receiver
it gets recognized and the driver gets installed fine, but when I turn on my
headset it does not get recognized by my computer (Windows XP) but it does
have connection to the receiver. I tried it on my Vista laptop and it works
fine but I can't seem to get it to work on my desktop. I have no option to
choose "Microsoft LifeChat LX-6000 or select Headset (Xbox 360 Wireless
Receiver for Windows)" as my default device in my sound options. When
connected to my laptop only the first light would stay lit on the headset
(showing it had connection and was recognized I assume) while all 4 lights
flash repeatedly when trying to use it on my desktop. Any suggestions as to
how to get this to work on my XP desktop?
