No sound from my windows 7 HP Pavilion g4

so, all of my sound options are on, but when i went to youtube it had no sound in the video that i had just watched the day before, and it had sound then, but when i look, youtube has all of the sound options on too. i dont really know whats going on, all i know is that i absolutely NEED my sound back and i will not do a system recorvery. i tried to troubeshoot by going into the sound playback stuff and it either said that it didnt find a proble or my sound was too low to hear. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Hello,
Is the issue just with YouTube or does no found function?
If it is just YouTube you may need to check the sound settings for that browser. You can check that by right clicking on the sound icon in the system tray and choosting open volume mixer while YouTube is also open. There check the browser sound to see if it is muted or turned low.
If it is all sound that is not working you can reinstall the sound driver via HP.com (I do not know your speific model so cannot give a direct link) or through HP Recovery Manager.
How to for Recovery Manager: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c01868333&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en

  • No sound from right speaker on Pavilion g6-1353ea after installing Windows 8

    I've had no sound from right speaker on my HP Pavilion g6-1353ea after installing Windows 8. I've checked all drivers, and have done the sound test in sound properties (left speaker beeps fine, but then nothing from the right). Anyone else having this problem/found a solution?!

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp59001-59500/sp59154.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio in both speakers.

  • No sound from headphone/speaker HP Pavilion g7 Notebook PC

    my HP Pavilion g7 Notebook PC sound stopped working  about 4 weeks ago. normally i would go onto troubleshooting and just change to audio to default with my headset on and it would work but today sound stopped working. before this started I had deleted a ton of photos and a few things I thought we're not important but may have been. anyways so i deleted everything in my recycling bin, i do it once a month and must have deleted somthing important. halp?

    Hi @Chaithra ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    It is a terrific place to find answers.
    For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
    I understand from your post that you have sound in the right speaker but not the left.The two main reasons for this would be that the speaker has failed or your system is configured incorrectly.
    Have you ran the HP Support Assistant  to aid with HP updates and fixing issues?
    Have you tried running  MS Fix It to help with difficulties?
    Have you tried Using automated troubleshooting (Windows 8)?
    Here is a link to No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7) that will guide you though testing and configuring the speakers.
    Here is a link to the HP G4 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. Please note on page 30 or chapter 3 page 22 item 8  for a part number for a replacement speaker should it be required.

  • [Solved] No sound from VM (Windows 7) on qemu with virt-manager

    I posted this in Newbie corner,
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176131
    but let me re-post here becase it is about sound matter.
    I have installed Windows 7 (64bit) on qemu with virt-manager.
    It seems that audio works fine inside the guest os, but I can hear no sound.

    According to

    I did as follow before launch the VM, but it doesn't solve the problem.
    export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=alsa
    What shoud I check and do?
    Followings are some additional information:
    * If I put the same command above

    Self reply.
    Finally, I got to hear sound from windows 7 as guest OS.
    I gave up to use virt-manager and launches OS image by command line
    like follows.
    % export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=alsa
    % qemu-system-x86_64 /mnt/win/win7qemu002 -cpu kvm64,+nx -enable-kvm -m 1536 -soundhw hda -usb
    Then, sounds works good.
    # However, the quality is bad because of heavy CPU load.
    Virt-manager may make things complex..
    Sorry for the duplicated post.

  • Sound from Capture window

    I'm capturing some old VHS footage by way of a DV converter. I have the "DV-NTSC DV Converter" Easy Setup option chosen. When I open the capture window, and play the video (before I actually start capturing), I cannot hear any sound. Is this normal? Its been awhile since I've captured footage, but I thought I've heard sound when just playing the footage in the past. I realize when you go to actually capture, you cannot hear sound, but thought I could when just watching it in th capture window. Am I just missing something simple?

    This is normal. You have to monitor the sound from the deck not from the computer.

    Only one of the jacks is for sound ouput. Take a close look and notice that one has an icon of a microphone and the otheris an icon of headphones. You will only get sound output if you connect the headphone (they usually have icons as well) 35mm plug to the proper jack on the notebook. Sound normally switches automatically from the speakers to the headphones when connected unless changes have been made to the Sound settings in Control panel.
    You should try the Microsoft Fixit center for the automated sound fixit utility.

  • No sound from left speaker on Pavilion DV7-3128CA laptop

    I have a DV7 laptop that I purchased in May 2010.  I have always used headphones for this laptop.  Over the last few months, I had trouble getting audio from the left side of the headphones.  Usually I just adjusted the headphone cord and the problem went away.  As time progressed, it became increasingly difficult to get audio, but i figured it was just a loose connection on my headphones.  .  I then tried a different set of headphones in both headphone terminals and the same result, minimal audio at best.  It seems the right hand speaker on the jack is perfect, music and DVD's, it is just the left side of the audio on the headphone jacks.  Any suggestions?

    I'm having the same issue.  Not running Windows though... I have a minimal Ubuntu 14.04 as the guest (Arch as the host.)  Been trying everything I can think of but I can't get any sound in virt-manager.  Like you said, the sound seems to play OK in the guest, it's recognizing the card, volume is turned up but no sound.  It has to be an issue with my host configuration but I'm not sure what.  I can get sound to play in the same guest if I launch qemu directly and use ac97.  Something's gotta just be misconfigured with virt-manager/libvirt/Spice.  I thought a permissions issue at first since by default it runs as the "nobody" user but I even tried the foolish thing of setting /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf so qemu runs as root... still no go.  I'd really like to use virt-manager for the nice GUI, presistant settings, and extra features like Spice and the QXL driver that enables KMS on the guest.

  • No Sound from Pavilion 15 Notebook PC

    HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC updated  to Windows 8.1 as recomended by the installed HP Support assistant
    There is now no sound from the internal speakers but when connecting external speakers to the output jack they give sound.
    I've followed various sets of instructions to update drivers / roll back driver all have failed.
    The drivers installed are currently Realtek High Definition Audio Version 6.0.1.7071
    Any body got any ideas?

    Hello peakay, welcome to the HP Forums.
    It appears that you have no sound from the internal speakers on your notebook, that external ones work fine. I will try to help you with this.
    I would recommend trying the steps in this document: No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8).
    If you need further assistance after this, pleas provide the model and product numbers for your notebook.

  • Weak Beats Audio sound from Pavilion X2 Laptop

    I purchased a 11" Pavilion x2 Laptop/Tablet for Christmas and believe I am having trouble with the Beats Audio. The sound coming from the computer speakers is so weak as to be useless and all of the settings will not get the sound loud enough to hear unless you put your ear within 4-6 inches of the screen. However the sound from the earphones is great, loud and adjustable. I have performed all updates from Microsoft and HP and followed all troubleshooting steps suggested by HP Web Site. Any ideas or do I just need to return it.

    Hello dontom,
    For not being able to hear very well from the 11" Pavilion x2, I would like to confirm the troubleshooting steps that you have completed. I have you completed all the steps in this document 'No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8)'? Are you using any special software, or just the volume icon in the system tray? Does it play the same level of audio for all programs and files? (ie. Netflix, YouTube, or music).
    Please also let me know the full model number of your X2. I have included the document 'Guide to finding your product number'.
    Thank you.

    I bought my lovely brand new imac, done all the updates and all is good, I installed windows 7 on bootcamp but cannot not get any sound from the windows, yes I get sound while running the mac but when I boot to windows 7 i hear nothing.
    Now the meters that should pop up and down do that so there is sound there I just cant hear it, I have gone without sound for 3 months now and its driving me mad.
    I have been to various sites and downloaded high definition drivers etc but still no luck, any ideas?

    You need to install your audio driver yourself, which would be RealTek.

  • Monitoring sound from HP Dreamcolor Z24x

    Hi,
         I have recently purchased an HP Dreamcolor Z24x and would like to monitor sound from my Avid editing system while playing picture over the Dreamcolor.  
        Previously, I would play audio on my computer and monitor it via external speakers attached to an Avid Fast Track Duo sound card.  However, with the HP Dreamcolor attached to my computer (via a Blackmagic Mini Monitor) I am no longer to hear any audio from the computer.
         I am assuming that I need to monitor the audio after it has been fed from the blackmagic card into the HP Dreamcolor, but am unsure of how to do this.  Is anyone able to help me figure out how to monitor my sound?  Many thanks.

    Hello John,
    For not having sound sometimes from the speakers, until you disable the audio enhancement. I would first like to confirm if you have tried this update for your audio drivers 'IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver'.
    I have also included the document 'No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8)'. I would suggest following through all the steps in this document. Does the Troubleshooting Tool find any issues, or does everything pass?
    Looking forward to hearing from you.
