Hello,

Recently I've noticed when I try to talk in game, my computer and headphones mess up. Let me explain;

Me and my friends talk in Skype and often play ArmA 2 & 3, and also the new DayZ. When I try to talk in game, it will work for about 5 seconds. This is where it all goes down hill; first of all, my friends stop being able to hear me in Skype, and no-one can hear me in game. I then try to unplug my headphones to fix it, and try various other things. Then, my internet cuts. I can't do much at this point. I then try to turn off my computer, which it wont do automatically, I have to hold the powers switch, then when I reboot my PC, all is fine and working again, until I try to talk in-game, then it all happens again.

This only seems to happen in the ArmA games. I have no idea what's causing this issue, or whether it's known, but I really need help as I like talking to people in-game. I can't find an issue similar on the BI forums, so I need your help, and if possible, fast!

Additional info;
Headphones: Tactic 3d Sound Blasters (is set to default)
OS: Windows 7
Drivers: Up to date
Issues: Only in ArmA games
Security: MBAM, Avast! & Spybot S&D (No related issues found (i.e. nothing that would appear to cause this issue))
Bandwidth: Good (35mb/s download speed, 8mb/s upload speed)

I can provide any other additional information if necessary.
