urbach wiethe Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Hey, My game is freezing pretty regularly. After the freeze I can't hear players. I have to restart to fix it. Also noticed the light that shows my mic is muted goes off when it happens. Any ideas to fix it? Thanks Urbach Edited August 27, 2021 by urbach wiethe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bezah Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 The light you're referring to, I'm presuming thats on some sort of mix amp connected to your headset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what mix amp means, but I'm referring to the mic thats attached to my headset. I can press it to mute and it turns on a red light.

Bezah Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 When the game freezes its fking up your audio in game. Try updating your audio drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I tried that I spent hours researching how to fix it, no matter what I tried, it would still happen. I then started to drink, heavily. Then, in an act of desperation I prayed to Gaben (Gabe Newell). I then heard his voice inside my head. He whispered "Reinstall windows." So I did. It fixed the issue.

urbach wiethe Posted September 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) Fuck I must have jinxed it by revealing a private prayer. It just happened again. I'm thinking its a hardware issue now. Edited September 3, 2021 by urbach wiethe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
