my logitech - USB Headset H530 - works with skype
but thats all - cant get any music or even windows sounds through the headset - only through the laptop speakers!
please help
 
What version of Windows? Windows sees those headphones as a second sound card, so you need to tell Windows to use that sound card by default.
 



I use Windows Xp - SP3
 
OK, go into the Control Panel, select Sounds and Audio Devices, select the Audio tab, then for sound playback choose the Logitech output as the default device.
