    Just downloaded teamspeak for my lappy, and I can't broadcast my voice. It works just fine on my desktop.

    I used it a few weeks ago on my R2 for some BF3 action.

    Did you make sure you went through the setup wizard and had your mic plugged into the right socket? Check you inputs in the control panel? Didn't seem to hard to setup for me after running through the wizard.

    Let me run the wizard again, and I was using the mic that was built into the laptop, that's why I'm posting here, not on the other forum. [:

    Nope, does not work. Could it be because my mic is messed up? It works just fine for Microsoft Sound Recorder.
    O, and one last thing, what is a Microphone Array. Never seen that before.

    If it works for sound recorder your mic is ok. Most likely it's a setting issue. Open your volume panel and make sure you mic is being used by Teamspeak. Also check your device settings to make sure that it does switch to the mic. I'm not entirely sure about mic but I have a duplicate headphone that won't work but the 2nd will. I had to manually change the default to the 2nd for it to switch properly.

    Not sure if that will help but I'm sure it's just a settings issue.

    Edit: Control Panel -> Sound :D

    Ok guys, I'm glad my mic isn't messed up. I'm constantly traveling to and fro, and I didn't want to have an issue with my internal microphone (Plus, didn't want to carry an additional peripheral). Turned out it was a setting in Teamspeak. Thanks for the help guys. [:
