TeamSpeak 2 Instructions

  For sgsterling.com TeamSpeak server

1. You will need a pair of headphones with a headphone-mounted boom microphone. These are made specifically for online game playing. They have the proper connectors to hook into your computer's audio system. Using computer speakers and computer microphone IS NOT ACCEPTABLE-- it causes audio feedback.  Headphones with built-in microphone isolate the audio so it is not fed back into the microphone. These computer gaming headphones are available at  Wal-Mart and Best Buy. Many other places too.
