Logitech microphone problem

[Code.Illusionist]

I guess it's okay to post this thread right here, if not , send it where it should be. Sooo, I have some very, very, very old logitech camera which I use mostly for microphone abilities only! I talk to people over skype, but after reinstallation of OS, somehow, when i start conversation, they hear me for let's say 3-5 minutes, then BOOOM, noises come up. And it last forever. I checked for drivers, nothing good. I even installed realtek audio drivers and when I open panel , and use microphone, there are messages like:

You just plugged in mic..
You just unplugged mic..

And it last forever. I don't even touch that mic.

Bad cable?

Bad cable?

possible issues:

If USB OR 3.5mm jack make sure you are NOT using the front panel.(for two completely different reasons, but still). move to another port, see if it works better.

edit:By new port i mean one coming directly off of the motherboard in the back of the PC.

possibly the cable has gone bad, you can try to find the break in a cable by holding aprox 6 inches between your hands and wiggling it some to see if it breaks up in that section, do this for the whole cable to identify bad area, cut out and either solder the cable back together or use a wire cap. dont forget to shrink wrap/electrical tape it.

One funky ass driver issue is possible, but not very likely. ditto for a piece of the hardware failing in a weird way. Since its almost certainly one of the first 2, check both of those and get back to me.

@Rytiou : Naaah, I have as well two headsets , and same problem there.
@Darkvision and proxx: I will try out that thing with cable, but as I mentioned above, even my headset microphone doesn't work. And my camera is plugged in in back panel of my computer, not on front.

EDIT: After installing Realtek Audio Drivers, I have something like this:



So, my camera microphone is the one called 4USB Audio device. And when I use any recording software, after 3-4 minutes, noise appears. But, i can't even start using this Realtek High Definition Audio Microphone, even it has some boost opotions and stuff. Somehow, I can not use it. Even when I change it to default device.

About cable. I think there is no problem with cable, because, when i started recording, and move cable very active, bending it everywhere , hoping to provide noise nothing. When i leave camera, not moving it, not touching cable, same result, and mostly around the same time. So it's not cable. Anyone have other ideas?
