I read lots of forums about the issue. I have Windows XP, and up to date Hardware and drivers. The solution for me was one (or both) of the following changes: Using a different jack (line-in, instantly recognized by the realtek software) and starting the microphone calibration program "by hand" (not accessable through the normal realtek software, i believe). Found it under "C:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\Drivers\WDM\MicCal.exe". I hope this works out for some of you folks coming here by google, too. The faders are still greyed, but my Teamspeak works now and also audiorecorder does the job. Hi,
