Beats audio Panel Missing after upgrading to Windows 8.1 and installing HP Reccomended Drivers

I recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 on my HP Envy H8-1450. The Beats audio Panel Disappeared and only shows IDT.
I uninstalled and re-installed the HP reccomended audio drivers several times....no luck.The sound does not sound as it did under Windows 8...actually it is crapy.
Please help.....Thanks.

lacadan,
Did you reboot your PC after installing the IDT codec in Device Manager?
I have upgraded from Win 8 to Win 8.1, have the same driver (6.10.6491.0) as you, and also have a fully functioning Beats Audio Control Panel in Control Panel.
When initially removing the incorrect Beats audio codec in Device Manager you should also check completely remove the drivers from your system, reboot, and Win 8.1 should install the correct version of Beats. You then have to reboot your PC again to complete the installation of Beats.

Beats audio software missing after I installed windows 8.1

Beats audio software missing after I installed windows 8.1
my laptop: HP pavilion p011sv

Hi @Boukou ,
Thank you for your inquiry.
I understand that after updating to Windows 8.1 you no longer have the Beats Audio software.
You should be able to download an updated audio driver from HP Pavilion 15-p011sv Software & Drivers page .
This should reinstall your Beats software.
Good Luck!

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

Anubha Goel
I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.

WPA security Types are missing after upgrading to Windows 8.1

After upgrading from Windows 8 Pro 64bit to Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit on my Sony Vaio Duoe 13, I could not find WPA security type while configuring Wireless network manually. (only WPA2 and 802.1X are available).
I have done a lot of troubleshootings like
1-Reinstall Wirless original driver
2-Updating the wireless driver to the latest
3-Uninstall and reinstall windows 8 then upgrading again to windows 8.1
But the same.
Is there any way to add WPA to the security type?

Yes! It works!
To recap : My laptop has an Atheros AR9002WB-1NG adapter, windows 8.1. Even when it had windows 8, it was unable to connect, but unlike now, I didn't look closely enough about the type of network. Originally I thought it was
this problem. But they confirmed that others with windows 8 had no issues with this. Then , when I tried configuring the network manually, I could not find the WPA-enterprise option at all, only the
WPA2-enterprise.
So here I was, and Greg Seth's answer gave me an idea.
In the following instructions, some commands are obvious, so I won't explain unless necessary. So here's what you do :
0) Go to command line, preferably Administrator (not tried without).
1) C:\Windows\System32> cd \Users\<User>\Documents
2) C:\Users\<User>\Documents> netsh
3) netsh> wlan
4) netsh wlan> show profiles
5) delete profile name=<yournetwork>
Enclose the name of network within quotes, this is to ensure that you can cleanly set up the right profile. Don't close the netsh, we'll need it some more. If you do, just reach there the same way as before.
6) Right click the connection icon in lower right corner > open Network and Sharing Center > Set up a new connection or network > Manually connect to a wireless network
7) Try to create a profile, and try to get as many details to correspond with your requirement. The rest we'll edit in command line, so let's make it as easy as possible.
8) Do the same at the next screen. Edit Network settings > change all the parameters that you can, to match the requirement. My university tech support has a detailed document listing the options to choose, usually for windows 7, or even windows 8. get
as many of them as possible.
9) Finish. Move back to your netsh terminal
10) netsh wlan> show profile <profilename>
without quotes this time. This should show your previous attempt at creating a profile in the GUI dialog boxes. In my case, it had WPA2 and AES. It has to become WPA and TKIP. I also set my authMode to userOnly, since I hadn't done it right in the dialog box
before.
11) netsh wlan> set profileparameter
displays a humongous list of parameters with detailed options, just carefully examine the syntax. It's all here.
12) netsh wlan> set profileparameter name=<profilename> authentication=wpa encryption=tkip authMode=userOnly
13) netsh wlan> set profileparameter
Don't exit this yet.
14) Now click the connection icon, and connect to the network. It will ask you the username and password in a different style, that was my clue something was different this time.
15) It should connect. In my case atleast, it did. Verify by browsing.
16) netsh wlan> export profile name=<profile name>
In order that you're not put through this ordeal again, export the profile safely to a file. Again, the profile name in quotes.
17) Wonder why microsoft makes things difficult for us!

System control panel malfunctioning after upgrade to windows 7 professional

I have an issue I just bought with my recently purchased Toshiba satellite P755-S5390. I had upgraded to windows 7 professional. Now the the system control panel is malfunctioning and I lost one USB bay. This included the switch to turn on and off wifi. After consulting with my some co-workers I have concluded that it is a hardware issue, but I find myself in a bit of a pickle. I didn't’t create a recovery disk for the laptop's original operating system and one was not provided. Is there any way I can get the system control panel function back to its factory settings so I can turn my wifi switch back on. With out having to purchase a restore disk from Toshiba.

The cheaper and easier thing to do is to consider purchasing the Recovery disks from Toshiba because alternatives can be time consuming and expensive in media.
Most of the newer Toshiba laptops do not include Recovery disks. So Toshiba gives you two options to run the Recovery. One is to create the Recovery disks using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator program. You'll find the program under Toshiba or Toshiba Utilities in the Program lists. The other way to run the Recovery is to turn on the computer while holding down the '0' (zero) key. This will activate a program in a hidden partition on the hard drive to send the computer back to it's out-of-the-box configuration. You can try this with your current operating system. It will give you a couple different opportunities to back out of running the Recovery before the process begins. The advantage of going back to the out-of-the-box configuration is that the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator program will be created again and you'll be able to create the Recovery disks as many times as you'd like. The bad news is that running the Recovery software will wipe out EVERYTHING on the computer, including programs, files, pictures and music.
What you can do is back up all of your programs and files and run the Recovery using the hidden hard drive partition. Create the Recovery disks and then restore all of your programs and files again. But this is a lot of work and like I said,it might be cheaper and easier just to buy the disks.

CD / DVD drive is missing after upgrading to Windows 8

My Toshiba laptop (SATELLITE P755-S5320 ) hard drive crashed and had to be replaced.
I've got Windows 7 installed and am doing a Windows Update.
But I fear that it won't install all the [correct] needed drivers.
I see there is a huge list of Drivers for that model of laptop.
Is there a way to download the restore CD (which support suggests came with the laptop) which I no longer have?

The proper way is to use Toshiba Recovery Media that you were supposed to make yourself when you first started the machine. Since you apparently did not, you can order it from HERE (scroll down). The recovery media will return the HDD to what it was when you took it out of the box including Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OS and all the drivers necessary and all the very useful Toshiba Utilities.
See your USER'S GUIDE starting on page 62 for a full explanation and instructions on how to proceed.
You are correct that doing the recovery the way you are doing it now will NOT install most of the necessary drivers and none of the Toshiba Utilities. Technically, you can do it your way if you are willing to manually download and install the dozens of drivers and utilities necessary to make the computer 100% functional.
If you decide to try doing it all manually, go HERE for all the drivers and utilities you will need. HINT: You can narrow that list down by selecting the OS at the bottom left of the driver page and then select which driver you are looking for at the upper left.
Good Luck!

TS1538 I cannot sync my iPhone 3GS after upgrading to a new computer and installing iTunes

i am trying to sync my iPhone 3GS to a new computer. I downloaded and installed iTunes and copied over the iTunes folder into My Music. Unfortunately iTunes on the new computer does not recognize my iPhone.
- The old computer was running windows XP OS 32bit. My new computer is running Windows 7, 64 bit.
- I have installed iTunes on the new computer. Windows OS recognizes the iPhone but iTunes does not. I have uninstalled and reinstall iTunes a few times now. On one reinstall, i recieved the following messages: "an iPhone has been detected, but it could not be identified. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPhone, then try again". Upon trying again, i recieved this message: "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an invalid response was received from the device".
every other time, nothing happens other that Windows prompting that the iPhone is detected. Any suggestions appreciated.
thanks, Singletrack200

Envy x2 auto-rotate does not work, after upgrading to windows 10. And touchpad gestures

I have installed the latest HP Support Assistant for windows 10 and I have installed the updates Intel Virtual Button DriverHP System Event Utility Updates failed to install without giving reason: Intel Serial I/O driver Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) Driver In display settings I have checked the box of "Allow the screen to auto-rotate" In Windows Update I have updated with Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3074678)Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3074676)Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3081424) In Device Manager under Sensors HID Sensor Collection V2, working properlySdo Sensor V2, working properly I have done deleting these devices and reinstalling them In User Account I have created a new user with password. Auto-rotate did not work in that user But all these have not worked. Please find a solution for me. About the TouchPad gesture: swipping inside from the left use to switch app, now does not work.swipping inside from the right use to bring out charm bar/ action centre, now does not work

Yes. I found the answer here:http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Display-and-Video/HP-Envy-x2-13-j020CA-Windows-10-Auto-Rotate-Autorotate-now/m-p/5212887#M115445I've tried replacing the driver on Sdo Sensor V2 device with the Simple Device Orientation Sensor and rotation works just like it did on 8.1.For the record - Sdo Sensor v2 reports the device orientation continiously, and Simple Device Orientation Sensor reports it only when the orientation changes. Must be a Windows bug then.

I sucessfully upgrading to Windows 8.1 and everything was functioning after the upgrade. However, after the first time I restarted my system after the upgrade the intergrated soundcard no longer worked.
I attempted to remove and reinstall the RealTek audio driver, downloading the newest 8.1 compatible driver from the Lenovo support site.
The drive refused to installed, either via the executable or by manually installing the driver through a device manager upgrade.
So I attempted to install a stand alone soundcard, to no success.
In device manager this is displayed for both the integrated motherboard audio and the new Asus sound card:
Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code
52)
If I disable the driver driver signature enforcement, neither audio option works. Instead I get this error in device manager:
"Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing.
(Code 39)"
Attempting to update the driver in device manager, Windows tell me I am on the most up-to-date, recommended driver, yet at the same time refuses to
allow it to function.
Extremely frustrating.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have also attempted to clear out the registry Upper/Lower Filters to no success.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
At that registry key, in the right window, is there, under "Name", either an UpperFilters orLowerFilters value?
If so, for each of the UpperFilters and/or LowerFilters value, what is listed under "Data"?
There could be an improper entry at one of these values which may be causing the problem.

H8-1287 Beats Audio controls do not work in Windows 8.1

I've upgraded to Windows 8.1 and installed the IDT High-Definition audio driver from HP's website. The surround sounds seems to be working but the controls do not work to modify the EQ etc. I've seen the problem has been resolved for Envy laptops but all the links for the software appear to only be for the notebooks and not compatible with my desktop system. I've downloaded the available software (IDT High-Definition Audio driver) found under my HPE HI-1287 product from HP's support site but the Beats audio control panel doesn't seem to make any sound quality changes. Hopefully there is a driver somewhere compatible with my desktop system that allows controling the audio properly. Thanks.

Hello @KICR,
I understand that the Beats Audio Console is not adjusting the audio settings on your HP Pavilion HPE h8-1287c Desktop PC running Windows 8.1. According to the HP Pavilion HPE h8-1287c Desktop PC Drivers page there are no Windows 8.1 drivers for your computer. I can only assume that this means your computer is currently using Windows default drivers or Windows 8 drivers and the Beats Audio Console is not able to interact properly with the currently installed driver.
All I can recommend is that you check back periodically to the drivers page I linked above and see if Windows 8.1 drivers have been created. Other than that your only option at this time would be to use the HP Support document: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8) to restore your computer back to Windows 8 where the Beats Audio Console has drivers that are compatible.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

2015 HP Envy 23 Ips monitor with Beats Audio is not working after upgrading to Windows 10

Hi I have upgraded OS to Windows 10 recently. from then there is no sound from my monitor. FYI.. am ussing a Dell laptop to connect to the monitor witha HDMI cable. It was working fine before upgrade and suddenly it stoped working after the OS upgrade.

Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I have read your post on how your notebook computer's monitor will not produce any sound after upgrading to Windows 10, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter! According to the available list of supported drivers for your monitor, there is currently no Windows 10 software published at the moment. In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on HP Products - Where do I find Windows 10 drivers and software for my model? I also suggest connecting the monitor on a different computer to test the hardware functionality of the speakers. I hope this helps! Best Regards

No Audio Output after Upgrading to windows 7; Soundblaster Card is installed

After upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit), I found that my speakers (which are built into my HP w2207 monitor) are not recognized. In the notification area I have the speaker with a red x in it, and it says “No Audio Output Device is installed”.
I have a HP Pavilion D4890Y with the Sound Blaster Audigy X-FI 24-Bit Xtreme sound card. I tried looking in Device Manager, and found “Multimedia Audio Controller” under Other, which states no drivers could be found.
I tried following some of the advice online, and downloaded the latest Realtek High Definition Audio drivers, but and the download seems to run successfully, but I don’t notice any differences. When I reboot as prompted, I’ve still got the same error.
I then tried forcing the Audio Device to use a Realtek driver, but Windows protests (saying it’s not sure it’s compatable with my device, and I end up with “Realtek High Definition Audio” under “Sound, video and game controllers”, but it has a yellow exclamation point. If I click properties, the device status says “This device cannot start (Code 10).” If I try to update the driver I get the message that it cannot find the driver software.   If I uninstall the driver I’m back to the original problem (multimedia audio controller under original devices, with no known drivers).
I also tried downloading various files from the Creative site, but it’s not clear which one to use, and the 4 or 5 different ones I tried (including their recommended beta version for Windows 7), when each of them opens it says it can’t find any supported devices.
Suggestions? Thanks!
This question was solved.

Hi,
"If the driver is a previous revision install it using the TROUBLESHOOT COMPATIBILITY tool that is part of the Windows 7 OS.
To use the tool, uninstall any drivers for the sound card you show listed in Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall Programs  list.  Delete the Device from Device Manager.
Download the revision of the driver from www.creative.com  website to a folder you've created and placed on your desktop.
After the driver is downloaded, navigate to the "setup.exe" of the driver and Right Click - select Troubleshoot Compatibility  ----
Let the compatibility tool select a possible solution then use its suggestion of TRY RECOMMENDED WINDOWS SETTINGS, if it does not find a solution it will submit only CUSTOMIZE SETTINGS and let you install it as you designate."
The preceding information comes from a Microsoft Windows 7 forum regarding an issue similar to yours.
the information you provided did verify that it is a sound blaster XiFi Extreme card as checked against the Vendor / Device list.

No audio device installed after upgrading to windows 7???

after upgrading to windows 7 audio is not working error audio device not install driver error...

Hi,
You will need to identify your CPU and chipset. CPU-z is a free and safe utility that can do that for you.
If your system has an Intel chipset with disccrete or onboard graphics or an NVIDIA chipset with onboard graphics, then the drivers are here at this Realtek download page.
If your notebook is an AMD CPU and NVIDIA chipset, with a discrete graphics module installed, then the driver for your Conexant CX20549-12 will be here.
Post you results here in your thread so others rsearching for the same information can benefit from it.

Drivers missing for Envy 6 after upgrade to windows 8

There are a few missing drivers shown on the device manager after Upgrade to windows 8 for model: Envy 6-1006TX.
The four items are:-
1. PCI Device
2. PCI Simple Communications Controller
3. Unknown device
4. Unknown device
I try to find it on the support and download page on the product support but could not find.
i even go to HP Support Assistant website to try download the support assistant for window 8, but the links is not working.
Can anyone assist ? Thanks

Enter the Device Manager in Windows 8 by holding the Windows key and tapping the x key once. In the menu that is invoked, select the Device Manager. Right-click on the unknown device and then select the details tab. See the following image. I arbitrarily selected a device as an example.
Post the image by using the snipping tool. The snipping tool can be found by using the Windows key + x and selecting search. Type in "snipping" and the snipping tool link will appear for you to click on it and use as in the following image.
Post all that is before the &SUBSYS in the top PCI\VEN alphanumeric string and I can use it to see if the manufacturer of the device has posted a Windows 8 driver. Sometimes the success rate for finding a driver is greater at the manufacturer website.
