Connect the Logitech Usb Microphone to the Wii Usb Connector and Press the Button to Continue
HI,
The headset might not be set as the default device when you connect it. Make your headset as the default audio output device when you connect it under the playback devices.
Method 1:
a. Right click on the Sound icon in the system tray and click on Playback Devices.
b. If headset is not listed, then right click on the empty space and make sure there is a check mark on Show Disabled Devices.
c. Once it is checked, you should see the headset listed.
d. Ensure that correct device is selected and set as default for playback (Highlight the device and hit "set as default" Right on the device and hit Enable).
Try installing the drivers using compatibility mode

As I stated above, in the third bullet point, it is not listed in Playback Devices, even with Show Disabled Devices selected. As such, I can not select it, nor set it as default, as there is nothing at all to select.
It appears in Playback Devices as Speakers, but not in Recording Devices. This makes me think that Windows is detecting the headset wrong.

Have you tried the headset in another usb port?
Have you tested the headset on another Windows 8.1 computer?
Is firmware up to date?
Plug the device in
If you see the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the notification area at the far right of the taskbar, you can use this to ensure that devices have finished all operations in progress and are ready to remove. Click the icon and you'll see a list of devices. Click the device you want to remove.
Reboot the computer
Plug the device in again. Is it now detected?
In Device Manager click the + next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers
Is the Root Hub displaying an exclamation point (!) in a yellow circle?
Verify that the BIOS is assigning an interrupt request (IRQ) to the root USB controller. This is required for the device driver to be loaded. (note: usually IRQ 9 is assigned)
Remove and reinstall all USB controllers, follow these steps:
Open Device Manager
Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
Right-click every device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers node, and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
Restart the computer, and then reinstall the USB controllers.
Plug in the removable USB storage device, and then test to make sure that the issue is resolved.

-Yes.
Have you tested the headset on another Windows 8.1 computer?
-I know noone else with a Windows 8, or 8.1, computer.
Is firmware up to date?
-As far as I know, yes.
Safely Remove Hardware icon in the notification area at the far right of the taskbar.
-Said icon does not appear when plugging in this device. It has never appeared for any USB device used with this computer. I assumed this to be a quirk of Windows 8.Is the Root Hub displaying an exclamation point (!) in a yellow circle
-No.Open Device Manager
Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
Right-click every device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers node, and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
Restart the computer, and then reinstall the USB controllers.
Plug in the removable USB storage device, and then test to make sure that the issue is resolved.
-No changes.
After going through all of the above, the headset is still listed on the Device Manager as speakers, and will play sound, but there is no recognition of the microphone.
Testing them with an old Windows 7 computer, they detected - as a headset - before the drivers even finished updating.

I honestly thought the "Safely Remove Hardware" option was there in Windows 8.1 ...hmmmmm???? Must be a "senior" moment.

Or, go to the Manufacturer's website and look for an updated driver. Follow the installation instructions.

Troubleshooting detects a problem with bluetooth drivers, goes to update, but then resolves with the problem unfixed.
Windows update reports everything is up to date.
Device manager only reports a problem with (once again,) the bluetooth driver. (Error code 10)
According to Logitech, everything is up to date with the headset.
Apparently, there's a problem with the driver, which must be what's effecting the headset, but I find it curious that it fails to update it. Additionally, when attempting to update the driver via the Device Manager, it responds that the driver is up to date.

Quote from Logitech re: H760 headset
Audio USB products use drivers that are native to modern Windows operating systems, enabling basic functionality without additional software.
Download the driver and save it to your desktop
Install the driver using compatibility mode
Do you have other peripherals installed, printer, etc...? Unplug them for the moment.
Disable anti-virus software temporarily
Retry the installation

The headset is a USB-interfacing wireless setup. That is why I mentioned that the bluetooth drivers had errors reported, because it is wireless, despite using the USB port.
Either way, the section about 3.5mm connectors is irrelevant. (A note found unusual when they were talking about this headset.)
Regarding Logitech's drivers/software for the headset: I have downloaded all available items, and registered the product, but to no avail.
There are no other devices/peripherals working with the computer. I use a USB mouse on occasion, but have not used it in conjunction with the headset.
Looking into the problem, there seems to be a common problem with the Lenovo G780 and Windows 8.1 (http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-3000-and-Essential/G780-Windows-8-1-update-Can-t-Start-Dolby-Audio-Driver/td-p/1272205)
As I did not have the headset before updating to 8.1, I do not know if it this is a factor. I do have the above problem with Dolby, though once again, everything seems to run fine despite the fact that the "audio drivers can't start." (This is also a persistent problem I have been unable to correct, despite following the suggested fixes.) Also, as I said earlier, Windows reports no problems with the drivers.
If I properly recall, Lenovo's stance on this last problem is "Windows broke it, it's their responsibility."
While I'd rather this problem with the headset not be a problem with the computer itself, the fact that Windows and Logitech report no problems driver-wise means it isn't entirely out of the question.

I'm sorry for taking so long to reply again - I haven't been able to work on this problem for awhile now. However, despite having tried everything mentioned so far, the headset still only shows as speakers, not allowing use of the mic.
At this point, I am not sure it is a problem that can be fixed.
