Cirrus Logic sound card not working - Just a quick question (iMac 27-inch)

Hi, so as many have experienced, my sound card is not registering on my new iMac, on the Windows Vista side. I get sound out of the Mac side, just nothing from Windows.
I was wondering, would a USB sound card or sound pod solve the problem? I am not amazing with computers... But would buying one of those be a possibility?
I was looking at something like this...

If anyone who knows what they're talking about could give me some input on this, it would be greatly appreciated. I do a lot of video editing on the Windows side, so having no sound would be an extreme burden.

Hi - I had this problem when I installed WIndows Vista (32 bit) on my i5 iMac. I believe I resolved the problems by finding the drivers on the OSX install disk. What I am struggling with is updating the video drivers - but that is another story...

  • Audio / Sound Card not working after Soundblaster.USB.Audio.Support.pkg

    Ok, first - confess - it was stupid. I installed the Soundblaster.USB.Audio.Support.pkg package, which i downloaded from the internet, to make the harman Kardon Soundsticks (USB-Version) working, as nothing happened when plugging them in.
    First, it ruined the mouse working after reboot and also disabled the internal sound card, not even as device available anymore. I fixed the mouse problem by installing IOUSBFamily-281.4.0-log(PPC).dmg
    How can I make the sound card be available and working again ? I also updated to 10.4.11. Did not help ! Can you ? Thanks !

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    First, look in system preferences, accounts, and for your login account look at login items to see if there is a Soundblaster USB module that is loaded when you reboot your system. Delete it if there is one.
    If you updated to 10.4.11 by software update, download the combo update from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eppc.html . The combo update is a complete update for all updates to 10.4, and installing the combo sometimes fixes odd things.

  • Other Device/Sound Card not working properly

     My sound card keeps failing. I can restart my computer and it will work fine for a random amount of time. But usually I'll be running youtube or soundcloud and the audio will just stop. The video will stop and no longer play.  I can try video files on my computer and they won't even play on Windows Media Player. I try in VLC and the video will play, but not the audio.  I've tried every driver known to the HP driver update process, I've tried updating the Intel Chip the Bios, everything.  I'm out of options. Can you help? 

    Hi: You need this driver for the unknown device and you may have to manually install it by browsing to the driver folder. http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp66001-66500/sp66231.exe The only suggestion I can offer for the audio is if your model has the Realtek HD audio system, accept the agreement, download and install the second driver on the list. http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

  • Sound card not working anymo

    Hello. i've been working on this for the past 5 hours, but i've taken a breath and now i'm going to post here to see if any one can help me out. Im working with 2 computers, heres one:
    [Computer One]
    Yesterday, i first noticed that when i plugged in my microphone (a new one i bought) to the sound card i have (Audigy 2 ZS Platinum), it crashes my computer.
    Today, i tried a newer headset, a USB one, and plugged it in. (these headsets are logitech). The microphone works good (while plugged into the card, but then i have like maybe 2.5% volume (very very, very low) in the headphones. I checked my system volume, i changed around EVERY thing to see if i could get the phones to work, but no sound from my voice chat server (Teamspeak) would play at any hearable level. (i know it worked because they yelled and i could hear them, a little).
    So after that all does not work, i plug in my old trusty headset (to the front dri've bay i got with my card) and then i start getting ERRORS and stuff when i open teamspeak, heres the 2 i get:
    "OpenDevice Specified device identifier is out of range", then I hit OK and it gives me: "waveInGetDevCaps Specified device indentifier is out of range".
    I then uninstall my drivers for the sound card, and download these: SBAX_WBUP2_LB_2_09_006
    When I try to install them, it says something like: please make sure your sound card is installed correctly, or something of the nature.
    [Computer Two]
    I install my old Sound Blaster Li've 5. card on my second computer, and i download the drivers for it, and it says the same thing when installing drivers: "make sure its installed correctly," like my Audigy 2 ZS Plat. Thats when it hit me, there has to be something i'm doing wrong here, how it could give me the same error on 2 machines?
    I really have no idea what to make of this, any help is appreciated

  • Sound Card not working (resolved)

    I've got a new system, and the integrated sound card on it isn't working, so I swiped the PCI sound card from my old computer and inserted it.  And it's not working.  I've pretty much tried every method on the troubleshooting section of ALSA's page on the wiki, without any luck.  And yes, this includes unmuting and setting the volume of the sound channels.

  • Audio Science ASI5111 Sound Card not working with Aud. 3 Multi-track

  • SB04100 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuild

    =SB0400 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuildZ I did a full disk format and reinstall for a friend on a Dimension 3000, running XP SP3. There is no sound at all. Speakers are good, tested on another system. Model number on the back of the sound card is SB0400, so I assume this is an older 24 bit PCI SoundBlaster card. Although I reinstalled all drivers from Dell, I found no drivers for this. The Creative site has no listing for this model.
    Computer does not seem to recognize the card. Have not opened the box yet but I assume if I were to remove and then reinstall the card it would be recognized (?) I then have to find an SB0400 driver.
    Does anyone know where I can find an SB0400 driver ? Does the strategy of pulling and reinstalling the card make sense ? (I have really avoided tampering with any of the hardware on this box -- since it is not mine.)

    Re: SB0400 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuild? Thanks much for your response. Problem solved for now. I removed the board and then reinserted it, after which I was able to download the drivers directly. Some of my difficulty with this whole process has been ) I didn't know there was no working speaker in the computer and 2) I apparently misunderstood the BIOS settings for this. I re-set it up as an add-on board during the troubleshooting process. After loading the driver, I went back to the original setting (don't recall what it was but it was for integrated sound). The setting for integrated sound works fine, with external speakers and the new 24 bit driver. Still some noise (popping and static) but this board shares the bus with 2 other cards one of which is a wireless network card. May be a PCI latency issue but I'm reluctant to change that because the network card is a bit shaky anyway.
    Everything works for now -- I'll be glad to get this particular computer out of my house !

    Hello everyone my iPhone 5s sounds stop working.i did not do anything it just stop working when I tried to turn on my music player all the sounds is not working I already check the volume and it is not also muted :( what happened can anyone solve my problem please

    Hey Kirby17,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
    Have a nice day,

    Hi everyone! I’ve just upgraded my Acer One S1001 to Windows 10 and realized that the sound is not working. When I went to the support site, I found that there are no drivers for Windows 10 yet!! Only drivers for Windows 8.1 are available. Please provide the drivers for Windows 10, otherwise I’m not able play sound from my machine. Can someone please help? Thanks.

  • HP Pro 3125 MT - Windows 7 Enterprise 64. Sound is not working.

    HP Pro 3125 MT - Windows 7 64 bit. I've installed the audio driver SP51083 as suggested by HP (here).
    As soon as I installed them the sound is not working anymore. The sound card is seen by the control panel, and everything seems to be correct (the system even detect when a jack plug is connected or disconnected to the audio card), but no sound come out from the speakers. I just hear a soft buzz.
    I couldn't rollback, so I tried to uninstall drivers and install Realtek ones (here)
    Same result.
    Note: speakers are working ( if I plug them to another computer they works witout problems). However even headphones are recognized by the Realtek panel, when connected, but the output is, also in this case, always a buzz.
    Any idea? Thank you.

    Hi:
    Did you try uninstalling the entire audio device?
    Right click on the device and select uninstall, and check the box that says uninstall drivers. reboot and see what happens.
    Then if the audio doesn't automatically install,  you can try manually reinstalling the driver by browing to the installation folder that was created when you extracted the driver.
    Click on the audio driver in the device manager. Click on the driver tab. Click on update driver and browse to the driver folder that was created. The HP driver would be found in C:\SWSETUP\sp51083.
    If none of that works, maybe someone else has another idea you can try.
    When I am confounded by issues like this, I reinstall the OS, applications notwithstanding.
    I look at it this way. I can spend hours getting nowhere, or I can bite the bullet and get my PC back up and running. Then I know not to install a program or driver the next time that killed a function of my PC.

  • Runtime error R6025 message after log on to Vista - Flash Card not working

    Hi
    I'm a newbie & would appreciate any advice.
    I am getting a runtime error message R6025 when I log on to Windows Vista.
    When I click out of the box I then get a message saying Toshiba Flash Card not working.
    I cancel that and my laptop is ok except I don't know if the flashcard is working or not because I don't know what it does.
    Sorry if I sound thick
    Thanks
    Neelie

    Hi
    I found this MS knowledge base article:
    +Description of the R6025 run-time error in Visual C++\+
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/125749
    But I doubt this description would be useful for you or anyone here. It describes this error in Visual C++ and this is programming language.
    However, I think you should simply reinstall the Value Added Package which you could download firstly from the Toshiba European page.
    At first you have to remove the old Value Added Package from the system, then reboot the notebook and follow with new VAP installation.
