Does this headset work with Windows 8?
1590550
This headset does work with windows 8. It is a great headset for the money, I use it almost daily for 6 to 8 hours and I have not found another usb headset that is so comfortable to wear for this long of a time frame. I work from home on my pc and I have 5 other headsets I thought were great until I bought this one, buy it and you won't go wrong. I hope this helps anyone with this item. If anyone can tell me where I can get a cord to convert this usb headset to an rj11 telephone jack I'd appreciate it very much as I also have times when I have to be on a land line phone and the headset it has is unbearable yet I have not been able to find anything to do this with.

currently using it with windows 7 and the device was auto-detected so it should work with win 8 as well. I'll try it tonight with 8 and will report here.

it only works on Windows 7...don't have Windows 8.1, but you could use a 40mm or 50mm analog headphone instead?

Yes it works great with windows 8. I bought this mouse for my grandkids 4 and 5 year olds. It is the perfect size for their little hands and works great nice long cord.

i am sure it will work with windows 8. We have returned all units and are no longer selling these as we've done our testing and don't think this product is as great as it seems. Flaws with USB the MIC has given us crackles and there is lack of bass in the headphones. Don't recommend buying this box.

yes they do work on windows 8. All I did was plug in the headphones and my computer detected . I never ran the cd that came with it cause my computer has no cd drive.

Yes, it works with Windows 8. I have been using it on Windows 8 for almost a year and have not had any issues with compatibility.

Not from my experience. Win 8 does not recognize the microphone. On Jan 13, 2013 I received the following from Yeti - "Currently our design and engineering staff is testing the new Windows 8 operating system along with our USB products for compatibility. Please check back in the near future for more information regading this matter." This is on the 64 bit v. of Win 8.

Yes, it works with PC. The chat volume wheel controls the sound from the computer. All you have to do is plug in the headset, the drivers automatically install. Just make sure that the headset is set to be your default device in the sound settings.

Yes, it does on my Windows 8.1 Toshiba! This is by far the best headset I've tried. I would highly recommend it.

Yes it does. I've used it on a windows 8 system with no problem. Just plug in and use.

Yes , this mouse works fine with windows 8. The only issue that i have with that mouse is that it goes thru batteries regularly.

Yes, I am using them with Windows 8 and Lync 2013 now. They were immediately recognized and appropriate drivers were loaded when I plugged them into the USB port the first time. In addition, they are comfortable and quiet, with good call clarity both speaking and listening. They also work well for listening to music . . . I am very satisfied.

It definitely does NOT work with windows 8.1. I have a newer laptop with windows 8.1 installed, two USB 2.0 ports and two USB 3.0 ports. None of the ports work. I've heard you can change settings in the BIOS or even disable USB 3.0 compatibility, but i'm not willing to go that far for a headset. I'm probably gonna end up selling it.

Hi, omelet. I have Windows 7 and Ubuntu 14.04. This headset works on Ubuntu just same great as on Windows.You even don't need to change any settings. Also i checked mic with Skype, works great. But if you have Ubuntu 10-13, you may need to fix mic (youtube / watch?v=tULmqpe5Yos)

I use it with Windows Vista, so cannot be sure. On the other hand, the mic has a very simple USB interface and presumably Win 8 has drivers at least as good as Vista's. As I said in my updated review, when I contacted Behringer they suggested using Asio4all which is an independent universal audio driver for Windows systems. Asio4all is free software which (as I understand it) basically improves the way most computer sound cards work. Hope this helps. Regards
