Corsair HS1 USB - Drivers Won't Install

[Dynasty2201]

Hey all.

 

I have a pair of HS1's, the USB kind, and have just reformatted my SSD and reinstalled Windows 7.

 

Went to install the HS1 drivers off the disc, and it prompted me to "Please connect the Corsiar USB Headset."

 

I plug it in to the same USB port I always do.

 

Windows does its' thing and the device is ready for use.

 

I click OK on the "Please connect the Corsair USB Headset."

 

Error sound.

 

Click OK again.

 

Error sound.

 

Click OK again.

 

Error sound.

 

"The program might not have installed correctly."

 

Hmm.

 

Download the 1.1 drivers from here: http://www.corsair.com/en/gaming-audio-series-hs1-usb-gaming-headset.html

 

As they're the only ones I can find.

 

Same problem.

 

Doesn't matter if I try another port or not.

 

Doesn't matter if I have them plugged in or not before running the drivers.

 

Same error every time.

 

They work, I just can't install the software and increase the bass etc etc.

 

Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated!

Check Device Manager, Whats the device name for the headset?

Device Manager under Sound shows:

 

HOLTEK USB PHONE

Intel® Display Audio

Realtek High Definition Audio

USB Audio Device

Right Click "USB Audio Device" and click Uninstall. Re-plug the headset in and see if its detected as a Corsair USB Headset.

Thanks for the help so far.

 

I uninstalled it, unplugged it, plugged it back in and it reinstalled as "USB PnP Sound Device."

If possible, try it on another computer and see if it works fine.
