Usb my drop out windows 10?

I am stumped on this one. I have a usb blue snowball microphone that never had this issue on 8.1. While I'm talking on the mic sometimes it just cuts out for a minute or longer and eventually restores itself. Tried reinstalling usb mic drivers but made no difference. On windows 8.1 the usb drivers listed as blue snowball on windows 10 they just list as usb recording device. Not sure if this has anything to do with it. Blue snowball doesn't offer drivers they simply say to use windows default.

But I have another minor issue so next I'm going to try reinstalling audio drivers too. Other issue is when using the volume wheel on my logitech keyboard my monitors flicker in and out only while using that volume wheel never seen this before and windows 10 makes a "ding" sound as they flicker in and out.

As far as I know there are not known issues on Windows 10 with Snowballs. Therefore, it something specific to you - first off try a different USB port so we can rule that out. If it persists, try plugging into a different system in case this is a new issue unrelated to windows 10, but coincidentally happened at the same time.

What kind of ding? Like a input/output ding, or what?

i have used it in different system, with no issues. different usb port with same issue. I havent tested it on another windows 10 machine because i only have 1 pc running it currently.

sounds like this guys beep but only does it once at a time as volume goes up or down.
