Frequently asked questions7
ENGLISH
The operating system stops responding after restart
Using the Philips SpeechMike together with certain USB hubs may cause the operating system to stop responding when the computer is started.
Unplug the SpeechMike before starting the PC and reconnect it afterwards. We recommend replacing the USB hub or connecting your SpeechMike directly to the USB port of the computer.
The SpeechMike is completely without function
Some computer providers limit the output power of USB ports to 100mA. These ports may not provide enough power for the SpeechMike to function properly.
Connect the SpeechMike via a self-powered hub.
The SpeechMike is connected to the computer but sound will play on the computer’s speaker only
Windows XP can support only one playback device at a time and may require setting the playback device back to “SpeechMike” if another playback device was enabled after the SpeechMike was installed.
