Hi David,
What you need to do is, plug in your headset, you do not need to have FSX running, start menu, find the FSFDT folder, and click on that, right under it will be the Control Panel, launch that, and it will load up with an icon that looks like two stop lights at the bottom right corner of your PC where the time and such is. click on it, and it will open up the FSFDT control panel, there are a bunch of options on the left, click to expand the Voice category, then click the VATSIM one, make sure "Enable VATSIM Voice on this computer" is checked, and then underneath that are your options for microphone, headset, and speakers. Mine is setup so that I have my microphone and headset hooked up to my headset for talking to ATC, and select my speakers for anything else. Just use the drop down menu and it should list your headset device. If you have the option, I think Direct Sound is better.
Once you've configured that, click on Key mappings underneath the VATSIM menu, and you can set your Push to talk button (PTT) for either your joystick or have it on your keyboard, you're choice, or you could do both I guess. Click on "use a special mapping for private VVL Channel, so that when you set up the company channel, VATSIM won't hear what you're saying to us :p. Once you've done all that close the program, and start up FSX, and now you should be able to hear the ATC, and when you would like to talk, simply hold down you're Push to talk button, and speek. Then let go of the button when you're done transmitting.
Hope this helps!
-Matt

It's NOT easy. It's actually quite the PITA. :devil:
Go and put your images on photobucket or some other web service, then copy and paste the URL from the image here and it will show up.
