Distorted sound in windows 7 startup sound

hi
i just bought l500.while on window log in there is distorded sound in windows startup tune.it only occurs when i applied password to system,there is no problem in sound in other application

When you use bootcamp you should use the bootcamp drivers not what windows suggest or what you can find on the chip makers site
Bootcamp drivers can be made from osx bootcamp program or download the driver zip from apples site
Google apple bootcamp driver zip

Sound Stutters During Windows 7 Startup/Login XFi Titanium Fatality Pro

During Windows 7 startup/login I get a weird stuttering sound when the startup sound effect plays. I have installed my X-Fi Titanium Fatality Pro card on two different PC's and get the same result. It's not a big issue but it does get annoying because it stutters throughout the whole startup/login sound effect. Has anyone else experienced this issue or resolved it's Thank you.

KYep, im having the same. Windows 7 Professional + XFI Xtreme Music Sound distortion and lag when watching youtube clips or actions as simple as changing theme in windows 7 desktop ( it goes on with wierd distorted sound) Any help? i have tryed last 2 creative audio drivers with no help..

BT 3.1 - No more windows 7 startup sound

Hey there Apple forums!
I decided to install Windows 7 on my Mac a while ago. I had Bootcamp 3.0 and all the problems related to audio that BT 3.0 had, including the red optical light. Once BT 3.1 was released, I decided to install it. Notice how I hadn't changed any driver from Bt 3.0 until I installed 3.1.
Once I installed the update, most audio problems were immediately solved. No more ghostly red optical light, no more laggy audio, etc. Audio output was still low, but nothing "Enchance audio output" couldn't solve. I was seemingly happy, until i realized that the windows 7 startup sound played no more.
By startup sound I mean the chime that plays when you're in the login screen. This is a very small glitch, as it used to work in Bt 3.0, even with the audio issues it had.
Is there any solution? And before you begin asking protocol questions, yes, the startup sound IS enabled, yes I have the default Windows sounds set, I haven't changed the theme (don't know if that even matters, it shouldn't matter).
If it helps, when i connect two low speakers to the audio output jack and start Windows, and raise the volume, I CAN hear the startup chime in the login screen. But there's not even a faint sound when the external speakers are gone.
Should anyone know a solution, please help me with a post. And the speakers I have suck, so they're not an option.

Hi
Had same problem, tried everything like reinstalling drivers but still the problem continued. However today i tried changing the driver for the sound card to the generic driver and rebooted my macbook pro. on startup the sound card would not work on the generic driver and the system kicked in with an automatic troubleshoot and installed the correct drivers.
Somehow this has enabled the startup sound to work and the system doesn't startup in a muted state.
Haven't a clue why or how this has worked or how long it will continue to work but give it a go.

Distorted sounds in Windows 7 32 bit

Hi...
I re-installed my system with (Dutch) Windows 7 32 bit and used the "Vista" driver CD for my SB X-fi Music card.
When I play MP3 or WAV files, the quality is reasonable, however, some sounds, specially vocals, are damped by the bass-tones.
When I play a CD in my Plextor 80SA dvd drive, I get a very distorted sound.
Doesn't matter if it is a burned CD or a original CD from the music store.
I think that the output from my DVD dri've is to high, but I don't know where I can change the output level.
Also tried the latest updated drivers for the X-fi card, but that has no change in the sounds, cd's are still distorted and basstones in MP3 and WAV damp the vocals and other instruments.
Don't know what to do...please, someone with advise?
Grtz.

Using earphones, the same thing happens, the bass tones dampen other sounds.
I tested the speakers with the Creative Diagnostics application and there seems to be nothing wrong with them, even when I pump up the volume to 80 or 90% of the max volume there is no distortion at all in the speaker system.
I have ripped a CD and played the saved MP3 or WAV?files, they do the same as downloaded MP3 WAV files, bass tones dampen the other sounds. Sometimes the first two or three songs played, are all fine but then it slowly starts to happen... In other occasions, it happens immedaitely.
I have two identical dvd drives in my system (running on Windows 7 Ultimate) and used the second (hardly used) spare drive, also a Plextor 80SA, to play a legal bought CD and this one gives distorted sounds too! Volume doen't matter, by the way, distortion is also present on low volumes.
I must add to this that, when I was running Windows XP Professional with SP3 on my system, none of the above happened... It all started after re-installing my system with Windows 7 Ultimate.

Distorted sound on iMac with Windows 7

Hi,
I've just upgraded from Windows Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 Home Premium.
Before the sound worked perfect, but now it is very distorted.
When I mute windows I can still hear sound - it is just a bit more distorted and at a bit lower volume.
I tried to upgrade the sound card driver from Realtek, but lost sound completely. I reinstalled the Apple driver and now I have distorted sound again.
I'm running Boot Camp 3.1 drivers.
Does any one know how to solve this problem?
/Tejs

Can you find out which drivers you currently have for me please.
go to Start >> right click Computer >> System Properties >> System >> Device Manager
Now open up the sound, video and game controllers section and there should be something correlating to your sound driver here, if you could give me the name or the driver name if possible.
also what iMac model are you running.

NB520-108: Distorted sound on full screen video

Hi there,
I have a harman / kardon nb520-108 (I hope i have the right forum!) and when I maximise the screen on say youtube or iplayer I get a distorted sound.
I have read somewhere that the bios needs an update but i'd need confirmation of that if it is as the secondary effect is that it means an install of the sound system.
Any ideas what this could be?
thanks in advance,
alex

The Toshiba software that came pre-installed should warn you if you have all your drivers up-to-date. In any case, you should always update them. Also make sure Windows Updates hasn't installed a different sound driver for you, if it did, just uninstall that one and install the one provided by Toshiba.
If that doesn't solve it, tell me what browser you are using and what version of Flash you have currently installed. Update both.

Sound was fine but now distorted (sounds overdriven and clipped) on g7-1075dx

Sound suddenly is distorted; sounds like a preamp overdriving a power amp. Pavilion g7-1075dx with ATI High Def audio, IDT High Def CODEC, Windows 7 Home. Same at any level on available volume controls.

the same thing is hapening to be only had my laptop for a month. I plugged in speakers and it was fine, when i took the speakers out the sound is now distored and static from time to time, also one speaker is louder then the other, dont know if thats suppose to be like that.

Distorted sound in CQ-45 137tx

Hi there, hear some distorted noise while playing music or videos in my laptop. This sound prevails in both Vista Home Basic x86 ( Previous os) and Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Current OS). The sound comes in both the speakers and the headphones. I have updated the audio drivers (i.e latest driver from hp, and updated using windows optional updates)
I kindly request you to give me a solution for this! Thank you in Advance. Prompt reply awaited!

Hi there,
As per boosting your bass try this method listed here:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/5668647-post3614.html
Its for a different HP model but its practically the same..
Also in addition to above try going into IDT Audio Control Panel and making sure all the volume sliders including for headphones are on max
Regarding disabling power management, thats very interesting it might be the solution to the problem.. it might if it somehow lowers your speaker power during playback, please let me know if this fixes it as I have the same issue of distorted audio though doing some steps ilke above have decreased how occasional it is..I'll try it too i guess hehe
The only downside I see is well it'll certainly drain more battery power as audio will now use as much power I guess needed to play music etc.
Update: On my power management i have both Basic Power Management and Advanced Power Management however I didn't access it though any customize tab (I didn't see one?), i accessed it through IDT Audio Control Panel -> Preferences tab up top -> On the left Settings then underneath it General. Also for description under Advanced Power Management it states "Notice: PC Beep will be disabled while this feature is in use. Small but audible clicks and pops may be present while this feature is in use" meaning this could be the culprit for your distorted sound
Say thanks by clicking the "Kudos! Star" which is on the left.

Distorted sound from some CDs on Pavillion dv6

Approx 5% of my CDs have a distorted sound and are unlistenable. It is nothing wrong with the CDs, they play alright in my Lenevo T61 or McBook Air. The CDs are both new and old. It is the same using iTunes or Windows Media Player. Anyone experienced this and is there any solution?

Hi,
First, try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the links below.
Windows 7
Vista
Check if your CDs sound ok now.
If they don't, from the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Click to open the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers. Right click on the first channel and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When uninstalled repeat the process for each channel. Also if an ATA controller is listed, right click and uninstall this, again not deleting drivers if asked. Then open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. Right click the drive and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked.
Reboot the PC and let Windows reinstall the devices. Check the sound from your CDs again.
If it still doesn't sound ok, run the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below again.
Windows 7
Vista
Next, from the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. Right click the drive and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When the device has uninstalled click on the 'Scan for Hardware Changes' icon ( usually just below Help on the toolbar ). Let windows reinstall the drive and see if your CDs now sound ok.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes,

Distorted sound on M30-604

Hi,
I have got a problem with the sound on my Satellite M30-604. If for instant I play a cd or an mp3 (doesnt matter with what program), the sound is distorted. It sounds a bit like back in the old days when my taperecorder got jammed. After a while the sound disappears completely and I get bad sound driver errors. When I restart the notebook, the sound again works fine for a while, but then the problem repeats itself. This temporary regeneration only happens when I restart and does happen when I put the notebook in sleeping mode or standby mode for a while. The sounddriver in my notebook is the SigmaTel C-Major Audio version 6.14.1.3835, it should be the latest version. Can anybody help me with this problem? At the moment I am not even shure whether it is a hardware or a software problem. Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve
I hope that there is some solution that will help you. Did you already try to make BIOS update? It will be interesting to know what you mean exactly under distorted sound. A friend of mine had a similar problem and the cause for that was modem. Sounds stupid but everything is possible.
Like I said if the sound is slowed it can be some hardware mailfunction.

In-Ear Headphones distorted sound

Hi,
Yesterday, 21 days past my one-year warranty, the right in-ear phone now produces distorted sound when the volume is raised.
I have replaced the mesh cap as recommended, but to no avail.
It only the right speaker and is directly related to higher volume.
Has anyone experienced this?
If so, what was your solution?
tia,
Bob

hi,
if you own an iPhone 3GS and is covered by Apple Care or limited warranty your in-ear headphones get warranty too
you can even apply for DIY.

MuVo V100 suddenly distorts sound output, hates vocalists

9MuVo V00 suddenly distorts sound output, hates vocalists Greetings. I have a MuVo V00, which until quite recently has worked according to specifications as desired. After a period of nonuse, upon reinstatement it showed a global distortion in sound output, resulting in--impressi'vely--vocal frequency-range portions of files to be suppressed. Never mind that some music was improved in this way--it is an error that needs rectification, and unfortunately MuVo V00 models are past the End of Service Life.
I have downloaded the firmware patcher, and reapplied the latest firmware (which I had already had on the device, but consensus in various problem threads here leads one to believe that refreshing the firmware is a borderline panacea). No good. Swapped batteries on a hunch, no good. Swapped headphones, no good. Checked the files that are actually on the disk, they sound like they ought when played through the computer's means. I'm low on ideas, and the last person who asked this question here did not receive a reply. Anything spring to mind?

IPod Classic 6th Gen - Distorted sound :-(

Hey folks, my friends iPod Classic 80gb 6th Generation iPod has a crappy distorted sound when tunes are played from it.
He sent it away to get fixed thinking it would be the headphone jack that was the problem - they got back to him and said that it was the Logic board at fault, and charged over £79.99 +VAT for this repair.
When it came back, all seemed to work okay, except a very short battery life.
A week later, the iPod froze with no backlight (the menu was still visible but not reacting to any button presses)
Nothing happened when the charger was plugged in, so we held the Menu Button + the Select button, and it rebooted successfully however the orginal problem came back of distorted sound....:-(
Very unhappy as £79.99 was a lot to pay for it be broken again so soon.
Can anyone shed any light onto why this may of happened?
Was he right by saying it was the logic board at fault?
Cheers
James

I haD the same issue, and was thoroughly ticked off until doing some research and then trying couple things.
I was able to change the volume limit, that WAS set at half. I adjusted it to max volume, set a lock passcode, and away I drove.
Then, upon hitting "play", I began to get a little ticked off. I realized after a few minutes, I couldn't hear anything playing.
It was so quiet- and I-95 is noisy, with me regretting buying another Apple product, after is wrote not to.
So- after reading through a couple of these threads, I just adjusted the volume limit, and VOILA!
It reverted to 50%.
So, I did a total wipe, factory-reset it as new iPod. I checked setting=>volume limit and it was at the 50% point again. First thing that I did was go to the last selection under settings menu, "reset settings" and noted it doesn't delete sync days, solely sys settings.
I adjusted the volume limit to 100% immediately afterwards, set a new passcode and then.....
Hit play.
It worked. Plays just as loud as my original 3rd Gen iTouch.
So Dylan1219, maybe try that? It's so simple, I am shocked that's how I fixed it. It had been set- and always snapped back to the 50% mark.
So, MAYBE that could solve the problem..? I have hearing loss from rock & roll and concerts, etc...so, thankfully this isn't a bunk product. Just had a bunk setting.
It has stayed at Max level for hours now, and can state it solved it for me.
I would hypothesize, all iPod classics are made the same, except for the "options" of storage and color. Maybe a small "governor" or a piece of extra firmware is added after the fact, or only "every 9th iPod" who knows for sure...?
