Windows should re-install it, and it should work agian. Just go to Device Manager, select your audio driver and uninstall it (do not remove the software). Also try to re-install your audio driver. The bars that pick up sound in the sound manager are not moving.
The snowball is set to default device and there is no sound picked up even when i set it as default on any program. This is a computer related or windows 10 issue, I just can't figure it out at all.I have no idea why this is happening. The snowball lights up to show it is connected. My computer fully recognizes it, making a sound when it is connected/disconnected. When i plug my snowball into other usbs on my pc(which definitely work, because i can plug my webcam into certain usbs and the microphone from my webcam picks up sounds fine) it still picks up no sound. When I plug my snowball into my laptop, it works fine. But you can still replace the headset mic with the Snowball for chat input, and use the MixAmp for game & chat audio output, with the headset acting as just headphones (if it's an Astro A40, you can even detach, or leave detached, the boom mic, which just uses a mono aux plug). Suddenly, one day, my snowball is not showing any signs of picking up sound on my pc. The Blue Snowball has only USB connectivity (no aux), so you can not pipe it through the MixAmp.
I have been using my snowball for a very long time with no problem.
