[SOLVED] When speaker volume is low, my headset volume is low as well...

Hi everyone, I have an issue where my speaker volume control in windows 7 also controls the volume of my headset (which I like using at the same time). I have to set my speaker volume to 100% in order for my headset to be at max volume even if they are at 100%, they are not as loud as when i adjust my speakers to 100%, it seems that the audio controls are connected together even though I want to control the volumes separately if that is even possible. I just want my headset at full volume and my speakers at low volume, if I also mute my speakers my headset is muted as well and can't seem to figure out the problem. If it helps my headset uses optical and is a Tritton Pro+ 5.1 headset. My speakers are made by Creative (not sure of model exactly) and they use the motherboards audio inputs which are orange, black and green. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thankyou.

Depends on your motherboard.
Some allow different volume control and some don't.
Check your sound settings depending on motherboard and sound chip/codec installed.

Thankyou, I’ll have a look although I suspect it’s with the inputs I’m using.
