Okay guys this is my problem!

I have a steelseries siberia v3 that has worked perfectly for 4 months and suddenly it stopped working in the middle of a skype call with my friend. I checked on skype tools and saw that all my ingame sound were being picked up instead of my voice. I went on Tomshardware and saw all the threads and i followed every single one of them and it is still not working. I decided to borrow my brothers headset to try if that would work. My brothers headset (seteelseries sibera v2) is working perfectly on my computer.

Anyone knows what the problem with my V3 can be? I´ve tried doing like all the previous threads told me to do.

Also when I am using my V3 the ingame sound is picked up aswell as a tiny bit of my voice when I am having the mic close to my mouth and screaming!

Any help is appreciated if you dont understand anything i told you i will be happy if you ask my in the comments. I am swedish and not very good on english! Thanks!
 
If your brothers headset works perfectly and yours doesn't i think you need a new headset.
It sounds like it shorted out or something.
Picking up the game audio as well as the mic audio is something that a cheap headset might do.
It might be cheaper to just pick up a separate USB mic and disable the mic on the headset though.
 


Okay you have any Headsets that are good and i should get?
