Audio Not Working when updated to Windows 8.1

I had just updated to Windows 8.1 but my audio does not work. the Beats Audio Control Panel does not open and i dont have any sound whats so ever. I have an HP Pavillion 1451 Desktop and have done everything possible to fix this. I've tried links like these http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&lc=en&softwareitem=cp-124030-1 to download a new driver but it always fails. What else can I do?

Hi:
While trying to help you, I was looking along the same lines as you were (I assume).
I did a search by the IDT 92HD73E audio codec and all I could find were drivers for system boards with Intel processors such as the driver you tried unsuccessfully.
I have finally found a W8.1 driver for that codec from a desktop PC with an AMD processor and chipset.
See if this one works...

Audio not working after Updating to Windows 10

I have seen a solution for Windows 8, I have just updated to Windows 10 (from Windows 7), should I try the samething?I have tried different things but if I put ear buds in I have sound but no sound from laptop speakers.

hi Nitish,
Welcome to the Forums.
Just to check, are you using Windows 10 Insider Preview (x64) - Build 10162 which is the latest as of this writing?
I don't have a G400s unit here for testing but can you try the following:
1. Check if the audio works fine when using a headphone / external speaker
2. Run Windows Updates to get the latest patch and bug fixes for the OS.
3. Apply the "workaround" fix as discussed in this microsoft article (the fix requires you to limit the "Maximum memory" to 3072 under MSConfig > Boot > Advanced Options ).

F5 is not working after update of windows 8.

f5 is not working after update of windows 8 in my laptop. Rest of the function keys are working.
my laptop details are
Product Name: HP Pavilion 15-e008tu Notebook PC

Hello prem23,
What did the F5 key do before? According to your manual in the Action Keys list (page 32-33), that key wasn't tied to anything unless its just for page refresh.
If a Windows update breaks something, the best way I know to correct the problem is to uninstall that update.
OR
You can revert Windows back to an earlier state before the update with a Restore Point provided you didn't turn off that feature. If for some reason it is turned off, you will not be able to revert to that point as one was not created.
After the restore, only install one windows update at a time until you find the culprit and uninstall it. This way you have the other updates installed. YES this can be a long process.

Internet browsers do not work after updating to Windows 8.1.

I have spent several hours researching my issue, performing fixes that have worked for others, but to no avail. I have talked with 3rd party tech supports, in addition to Microsoft tech support. I also recently spent 3 hours under remote access with a helpdesk
employee. To no avail.
My issue:
Recently updated to Windows 8.1. Immediately following, none of my browsers work. Internet Explorer is entirely out of commission. Firefox and Chrome, however, interestingly, are able to open simple google pages: gmail, google maps, google search - I can
even search things that I want and results will show up... they just will not load if I click on them. The error message when I click on "More" says something along the lines of "maybe it's your firewall or antivirus wrongly detecting Chrome...",
and I think maybe something similar for Firefox. Explorer simply says that it cannot display the page.
So, how am I writing this? I am currently booted up in Safe Mode, with networking. Apparently it works here, which I'm hoping indicates that the issue to resolvable.
Remedies I have attempted:
I have restarted my computer over 60 times in the past 2 days.
I have troubleshooted the internet connection via the button that says "troubleshoot". It says it cannot identify the problem.
I have executed various command prompts executed as administrator: i.e. netsh winsock refresh, advfirewall refresh, something to do with ipv4, ipv6, a bunch of "IP stack resets", etc, etc.
I have manually added chrome, firefox, and explorer to my firewall exceptions, both via McAfee and via the Windows firewall system. Both simultaneously, one at a time, etc, every combination of this.
I have uninstalled the web browsers and reinstalled them.
I have unintalled my antivirus and reinstalled it, and checked in between.
I have turned my firewall off.
I have manually inputted some kind of DNS address (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and/or IP address (forget exactly what was asked of me to input).
I have gone to my "Manage Devices" and updated all of my network drivers, and attempted to revert to old versions of drivers.
There are probably more things that I have tried, I just don't remember exactly and cannot list them. Most things you can find on Google pertaining to this issue, I've tried.
Is there anything at all that anyone can think of to fix this situation? I am about ready to refresh my computer/do a systems restore/whatever to erase everything, factory reset, even (hopefully it works, because I've read that some people have issue, i.e.
no previous partition found or something, or no recovery media present, etc, etc).
Before I resign to this, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HELP ME.
Also, may I please note here that given the sheer frequency of this issue around the web that I've found, I think it is absolutely ridiculous and irresponsible of Microsoft not to rectify the issue. This is even 3+ months following the release of the
update; I always lag on updating such that bugs like these are fixed before I get on the train. This update has essentially reduced my multi-hundred dollar computer to an infantile calculator/solitaire/checkers/Microsoft office LCD screen. Not to mention wasted
2 full days of my time.
Sorry, just saw red there at the end and had to vent my anger. Please help.

Hi,

Workstation Bridge not working when Updating from 10041 to 10049

I am using Workstation 11 on a Windows 8.1 Host
All works well including Bridge network connections
I loaded Windows tech Preview 10 version (before 10041)
All worked apart from the Bridged network connections when using VMware workstation 11
Then there was an update to 10041 and the bridged connection started to work but you could not access the physical network card on the host...some error
Then somewhere the new update version was installed on my machine to version 10049
Now I cannot configure bridge mode in my VMware workstation 11 it tells me there sre no un bridged host insdtsalled and when I look at the physical network card there are no protocols installed.
Looks like I will have to go back to windows 8.1 pity
When one thing is fixed another is broken

I too has the same issue and I apprently tried to revert to 10041 from 10049 and it did not work.
But I tried to these and it worked for me. I stopped all the VM's and in vmware networking removed all the adapters.
Then tried to run the vmware 11 (latest) setup again and when it asked to install I choose repair and it did repaired and reinstalled the networking and after that I tried to create new virtual adapter and it worked and vm can able to browse internet.

Internet switch not working after update to Windows 10 64bit

Today i updated my Windows 7 laptop to the Windows 10 Home 64bit OS. Everything seems to work fine, except the WIFI. Windows does find my adapter, but won't wake it up. My built-in wifi button (f12) has got a red light on it, even when I pressed it. I tried the Windows 8 wireless button driver, but i didn't solve my problem. With that driver installed the button switches between airplanemode on/off. Not between WIFI. Also in the WIFi settings wifi turn off. When I try to switch it on, it directly turns back to "off". Wired internet works flawless. I gues it's an driver issue, so i was wondering if there is an driver upcomming? Or is there another solution to switch it on.Please help me. It's very annoying.

I read soms other forums and i came tot an solution:
1. Instal Windows 8 wireless button driver
2. Preform a hard reset
3. Reboot system
4. Boot tot BIOS, load the defaults
5. The wifi buttons works.

Audio not working when published

When I record an audio clip within Captivate, although I can
hear it when previewing that one slide, I can't hear it when
previewing multiple slides or viewing the published movie. I know
it has nothing to do with push-buttons or other elements on the
slide (I've tried recording on blank slides, with the same result).
I've also tried exporting the audio files and listening to
them in Windows Media Player, and they work just fine (both the
.wav and .mp3 versions). This problem just started happening today.
For the last several months I've recorded tons of audio on several
different movies with no problems, but now it's not working.
I'm even worried that this issue is somehow corrupting some
of my CP files. Even after I delete all of the audio clips from the
slides they were on, and saving the CP file to a different name (it
contains 30 slides and is about 2MB), when I view the Bandwidth
Analysis, the Video size for Slide 1 shows 546KB, even though Slide
1 contains very minor things (an image and a text caption)--the
same kinds of elements as on every other slide, all of which have a
Video size of approximately 20KB.
So I inserted a blank slide after Slide 1 and copied the
elements (an image and a text caption) from Slide 1 to the new
slide, then viewed the Bandwidth Analysis again, and the new slide
was only 20KB or so, much smaller than the original Slide 1. But
then when I deleted the original Slide 1, the new slide I created
suddenly takes on the same huge Video size in the Bandwidth
Analysis as the previous Slide 1.
Bottom line--I can no longer publish any audio in about 1/2
of my Captivate movies. Can anyone please help?

Teri, do this for me, if you would, please:
Check "
Movie > Preferences > Preferences tab > (check)
"Include Audio When Movie Is Generated".
Did that help?
To Everyone Monitoring This Thread: Another easily
overlooked troublemaker is the "Audio" icon (tiny speaker) located
beneath the timeline when you are viewing a single slide
(duh - sorry, brain fart - of course that's when yo see it because
the timeline isn't visible until you go to Edit mode - double duh).
Anyway, if you click it, you will turn audio off for
all single-slide previews - note ... I said ONLY previews of
the currently open slide. This will NOT affect other previews, nor
will it affect audio in the published product . . .
Hope this info helped some - have a good weekend!

Audio not working when connected to HDTV

I connected my MacBook Pro to my Samsung HDTV LN40D503F6F and also connected an HDMI cable to the TV using Apple mini DVI cable. I tried connecting to both HDMI/DVI 1 and HDMI 2. Video works fine when connected to both the HDMI ports, but the audio didnt work. I also purchased an a 3.5 mm audio to RCA cable and tried switichin between both the HDMI ports but still it is not working. Any solution would be great. Thanks !!!

Audio not working when on apps, I.e Facebook when directed to another site and snapchat..any ideas?

Please help..not sure what to do. I think I have a fault with the audio on my iPad. It works fine generally, when playing music and getting alerts etc but when I'm using an app such as snapchat, never had audio on the videos and also when using Facebook, if I click on a video that directs me to another site, the audio stops working then too

H gave you the right answer BUT he didn't explain it very well! I never "backed up" or "restored", so I wouldn't know what he was talking about either! But now I do:
If your Apps keep closing (linked with or without Facebook): Go to a desktop or Laptop computer only and log on to iTunes and delete the App (like Jackpot Party.) that keeps crashing.
Then you have to plug in the device you are using that the apps crash on and use iTunes to restore your iOS device back to factory settings. ( After you sync and back up your device to iTunes!)
Instructions are here on how to sync, backup and restore your mobile device (ipad, iphone, ipod, etc):
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
After restore, go to iTunes store and download the App again ( if it was a game, all levels/coins will still be there!)
I tried everything else, this is the only thing that worked! And it worked great!!

Why does audio not work when video chatting?

For some reason the audio doesn't work when I video chat (skype and oovoo) The person can hear me but I can't hear them. How do I fix?

Check to see that your little one did not by accident get something (anything) in the headphone jack. If there is debris in there (and it doesn't take much) it will make your device think a set of headphones is jacked in and you won't be able to hear through speakerphone or handset.
While holding it with the jack down, blow across the jack and tap gently. It often will dislodge whatever is in there.

Iconia Tab 8 W Touch not working after update to Windows 10

So, I have an Iconia Tab 8 W which came with Windows 8.1. I updated to Windows 10 but there seems to be some issue with the default graphic card driver since the touch doesn't work (works during the installation process so it's not a hardware problem). I managed to plug it into a powered USB hub and get a classic mouse-keyboard setup working but the touch is still dead. I found drivers on the ACER website but not only do they not have any sort of "setup" or "install" file, the Graphic Card doesn't show at all on the device manager. So, the "update driver" option is not an option. I've tried reverting to Windows 8.1 but the place where this option should be doesn't show it. I can only clean up the PC or boot into safe mode. Tried both, none works. As a last resort, I downloaded the Windows 8.1 media creation tool and booted into it to reinstall Windows 8.1 but now it asks me for the Windows key which is no where to be found. Anybody got any ideas?

IIRC the touch driver and te graphics driver are two quite different things. The touchscreen digitizer looks to the system like a USB device, so a problem would show up in Device Manager either as a USB problem or a HID problem. Try W10 again but this time look into the different secions of DM for the issue.

Powerdvd 12 not working after update to windows 8.1

My notebook came loaded with windows 8 and powerdvd 12 to drive the DVD drive. After I accepted an update of windows 8 to 8.1, powerdvd 12 would no longer run. I have restored the system back to factory setting and have been told that the Hp support site has a free upgrade for powerdvd that makes it compable with 8.1. I can't find any free update can anyone point me in the right direction? Or have I been given duff info?

MSI GT70 audio not working with hmdi after windows 8.1 update

When I connect my laptop to the TV, the video comes out fine, but the audio for the TV does not show up in playback devices. It worked fine with windows 8, but after the windows 8.1 update it stopped.
I have tried updating realtek drivers, but it still doesn't show up. updating other drivers also doesn't work. plugging the cable into the computer then booting it up also doesn't work like it did for other people. This is really making me mad... any help would be appreciated.

Pah, no probs to my ext. monitor speakers via HDMI, GT70 0NE, Win 8.1.
Have you tried assigning HDMI one on audio tab as default and see if sound will come out to tv? if so then that was the problem.

Audio devices not working when upgraded to windows 7

Dear Community members and Lenovo...
After uggrading my Lenovo N100 0768 54A from Windows Vista Home premium to Windows 7 Home premium, As some of our friends put up here, audio is not functioning. The mixer shows balancing in sound, the device driver shows, working, but the audio problem is still not resolved even after 3 weeks. I am really fedup with the audio driver installation over three weeks. The drivers tried, are both from lenovo site and realtek site. Still I could not solve the problem.
When upgarded from Win-XP to Windows Vista, realtek was not functioning, through our forum some of our friends suggested to install soundmax driver which was working well then. Now, Audio is the only problem. could Lenovo solve my problem. Some more community members could please help me out.
thanking you,
