I am not able to find the settings that were in XP, that allow you to have
all voice come in through the headset, instead of the speakers and the rest
of the sound come from the speakers. I have my headset working, but when
another person talks back to me, it comes through the speakers instead of the
headset. In XP you were able to have the voice playback come through just
the headset and everything else through the speakers. Is this not possible
in Windows Vista? please help

rfarrand,

Check Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound. The options there may
provide the configuration you're looking for, but that remains to be seen.

this seems to be a common theme, and an omission on Microsoft's part. That
option doesn't appear in Home Premium, from what I can tell.
