Unplugged the USB. It has now got to the point that the plastic and the metal USB connection is SO HOT its almost giving me burns holding it for more than 3 seconds. So i have disconnected it and left it on the windowsill to cool down. For any corsair employees: S/N 092616023508

Hello all, So minding my own business shooting at a few Germans on good ol' fashioned COD:UO, when my sound turned off. I thought hmm thats strange, it might have been the game, so anyway. Realised it wasnt the game. I checked my headset and it was usual flowing through all the colours and the mic red light flashing fast, suggesting it disconnected. As I looked at my USB aerial, I noticed it wasnt flashing or on anymore. Then a popup by Windows suggested it "Malfunctioned". I have troubleshooted the following to No avail: - Restarting computer - Turning off headset and back on - Resetting the USB by the small pin hole - Move the USB to another slot and turning headset on None of the above either by themselves or together make a difference. Windows still states "Does not recognise the usb or it has malfunctioned" message. Any help appreciated? The USB did feel warm however.

I don't understand why yours aren't working. When you plug in the USB cable, you wait 2 or 3 seconds to see the microphone flashing amber/red/ or still green when its charging then turn it on, then go to the force firmware update options.
