EliteBook 2540p and XP audio

Hello,
I have got a 2540p but I can't get the audio drivers installed. The IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver installer gets part of the way but then fails saying that there isn't any IDT audio hardware. I have checked the BIOS settings and the audio hardware is enabled and I have installed the Microsoft UAA patch.
It all works but no audio. Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks
Jonathon

Hi,
Install first correct MS-UAA for your XP system:
MS-UAA for XP with SP2 (required with a reboot before Audio, Modem and Graphic driver) here
MS-UAA for XP with SP3 (required with a reboot before Audio, Modem and Graphic driver) here
Only after that download and install:
IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver here

EliteBook 2540p integrated microphone not working

Recently I had to replace the hard drive on my EliteBook 2540p and since it came back from the shop the integrated mic seems to have stopped working.
Any ideas?

Hi.
I have a DV2620EA with exactly the same problem as yours. It seems as though this hissing background noise isn't a hardware issue (in most cases), but a driver issue in Vista. Instead of "updating" your sound drivers (i assume you have a "connexant HD audio driver"), remove them entirely first and then install them from "hp support and drivers website".
To do this;
- Go to the control panel
- Find "device manager"
- Right click "sound, video and games controllers"
- Select "properties"
- Click on the "driver" tab
- Click "uninstall" and check "delete driver software for this device"
- Click OK to remove the drivers
By now, vista should have no "record" of a microphone device on your computer. Check this by going onto sound recorder, it should show you a mesage saying "no mic detected on your system" (or something like that)
- After this, go onto http://welcome.hp.com/country/uk/en/support.html and type in your notebooks model number and find your audio driver. After the install, you should find that it works again, *it did for me*XD
Hope this has been of help.

Fingerprint reader not working on elitebook 2540p

I have elitebook 2540p, and I can't get my fingerprint reader to work.
The driver is installed and looks good at device manager.
I installed HP ProtectTools 5.12.754 and I can not see in the credentials area the fingerprint, only the smart card.
I tried also with DigitalPersona software and it's the same.
I have download the last driver from HP website under the correct operating system (Windows 7 enterprise 64bit).
I think the fingerprint reader is working since I entered the Bios and there it worked when I swept my finger. I saw the image of my fingerprint on the screen.
What might be the problem? why HP protect tool can not recognize my fingerprint reader?
Thanks in advance,
Ariel

I have the same issue with the same laptop
I've noticed that whichever driver you try and install, the version always seems stuck at 2.1.0.2

Elitebook 2540p Motherboard changed. Integrated motherboard IDT audio device missing in windows 7.

Hi,
Old situation:
(I recently changed motherboard for my computer Elitebook 2540p. When i installed windows 7 to my computer the computer doesn't list any audio devices in device manager page. I've checked bios for any faulty settings and they are all set right. Theres no yellow marks in device list either and all drivers seems to be installed.)
New situation:
Installed windows 7 again and computer found / installed audio devices normally. I tested computer for hours to play audio from it and everything worked fine. I restarted computer several times / re installed battery to the computer. On one restart the computers audio quick mute button below the screen appeared to be orange and the sound speaker icon in windows was marked as X. I check device list again from device manager and there was no audio devices listed (No sound devices at all). After that i restarted computer and before the computer started downloadin windows i pressed the mute button and it turned blue. I then went to windows and sound devices / sound was working again.
Old situation:
I have motherboard integrated IDT audio device.
When i try to install audio drivers from hp site for 2540p i get "Your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update." And the device manager doesnt list any IDT audio devices.
I then installed xp and the computer found IDT audio device normally and the sounds are working correct.
New situation:
After i did new windows 7 install and all my audio drivers installed / devices showed in device list / audio worked i downloaded audio drivers from HP driver site and installed them to the computer.
Audio problems has not been occured again after my HP screen mute button turned to orange / Windows sound speaker was marked as X / Computer didn´t find any audio devices.
Currently waiting if the problem occurs again and trying to think what would cause this ( Hardware problem or software)? And how to fix it permanently.
Any help for this problem?
BIOS is updated to newest version from HP driver download center.
All windows drivers are installed.

Elitebook 2540p sound - USB only

I have a Elitebook 2540p.
Just today the sound stopped working. Both the internal speakers and the headphone jack.
I've done the following:
* Verified that sound levels were correct
* Checked device manager
* Installed HP Support Assistant
* Updated audio driver
* Checked system F2 at startup
No issues were found, but sound still did not work either through headphone jack or internal speaker.
However, i just plugged in a USB headset. I get sound through the USB headset.
Any suggestions?

If they just randomly went off when you haven't done any updates or anything, then no.

Replace sata11 with ssd elitebook 2540p 17 2.13 low volt

Hello All.. I have a couple of HP EliteBook 2540P with I-7 ,2.18 GHz, 4.00 Gb, 1.8" 320 SATA11 low volt system that only supports a 1.8 SATA11 HD (unless I remove the dvd ) and want to upgrade to a 120gb (or larger) SSD.. Does any one know what I need to look for.. HP show two different drives.. One for the low volt 25a (Mine) and one for the std volt 35a.. I don't want to pay HP's price and need to know what to look for when I purchase a SSD .. Most SSD's on e-bay show they will work with any 1.8" HP laptop but before I order I need to know for sure.. If you have done this conversion I would like to hear from you ..The 1.8" pops in and out easily so that is not the issue..Just if the HD's are different..
Your help will be greatly appriceated..
Thank you.. Oreagle

Hi There,
in the quick specs document for the HP EliteBook 2540p Notebook PC there is mentioned that one can only place a 80/160 GB Solid State Drive.
Why is it not possible to place for instance an Intel DC S3500 240GB SSD drive? This drive has more GB's and is faster...
How can I configure my elitebook that way that it will accept such a drive without losing maximum performance?
Thanks!
The laptop supports only 1.8" drives in the primary hard drive bay. I think that a 1.8" 240GB drive should work on the laptop. However, it can't be the Intel because it's a standard 2.5" drive and won't fit in. The manual says that you can use a standard 2.5" solid state drive such as the Intel one but only in a hard drive carrier (caddy/enclosure pn#
598787-001) instead of the optical drive (DVD-ROM).
Don't forget that the laptop supports only SATA II connection. This means that you can probably use a SATA III drive but it will work as a SATA II one.

SSD laptop upgrade for Elitebook 2540p

Can a 160-GB SSD, part number 602675-001 from a Elitebook 2740p tablet PC, be safely used in a Elitebook 2540p laptop? The 2540p's processor is an Intel Dual Core i7-640LM 2.13-GHz processor, (turbo up to 2.93-GHz), 4-MB L3 cache, 4 threads, low-voltage (25-W). The 160-GB SSD that specifically goes into the 2540p is part number 598782-001.

Hi,
It looks like both laptops use 1.8" drives and also Windows 7 64 Professional. If the drive fits in go ahead. If you get the none genuine message on Windows, phone Microsoft and reactivate it by phone.

Seconda hand screen for a HP Elitebook 2540p

I have a HP Elitebook 2540p but the screen got messed up, so i managed to get a screen for a HP Elitebook 2530p
i had to nudge it a bit to fit and also use some black tap to hide where it overlaps
so obviously my laptop is not looking good
so i now want to put an original HP Elitebook 2540p screen
do u know where i can find a second hand screen together with the covers since i also changed the covers so that everything can fit nicely

Hi,
Error 7 is when a router or the connection to the router is broken in some way.
Some devices have features such as Denial Of Service protection (DoS) that cut a particular Internet Port when it thinks too much data is coming (Presuming it is an attack.)
iChat 5 in Leopard is not capped by the System Preferences > Quicktime Streaming speed (which we used to suggest was set at 1.5Mbps)
It now sees your whole Connection speed and your Upload may be much faster than this.
Your Download is likely to be much faster. However iChat will tend to operate at the lower figure of your Upload.
DoS features are threshold based.
You may now be bumping in to this Threshold where you were not before.
SPI (Stateful packet Inspection) does a different job but has the same effect when it is overloaded by the speed of the data.
If you have either of these features, turn them Off (Disable them)

My ipod's music quality is inferior. It doesnt have the surround sound/ left and right audio channel unlike my brothers ipod? is there a problem with the chip?

I have an ipod touch 4g (8GB), I got this about 2.5 months ago, the same time my brother get his. My problem is that I noticed that audio quality is better on his device than mine. I have been listening to music and had different music devices before (non-Apple product and mobile phone) and the quality of music is better when I used to listen to those devices as well as my brother's ipod touch. Im referring to the left and right audio channels. Im not so good about the technical stuff but the best explanation I can give you is in a music or a movie, there's an effect wherein you can here a sound only at the left ear phone/speaker that you cant hear at the right earphone/speaker. I mean for example in a song, a guitar intro can be heared only at the left
ear while the background music plays on the other ear. Or when theres and echo effect on the song that alternates sound on the left and right ear. I hope youre getting what Im trying to say. Im bothered that my ipod is fake or has an internal problem on the chips or something because I didnt bought this at an Apple Center/Mac Center. I bought it on a retailer. I am not able to visit any store or Genius Bar or contact an apple specialist through phone because of my work schedule and work load. I have contacted the retailer before when I tried to return it for replacement or repair but he told me that it is under Apple's warranty, not theirs. I do hope that I can get a help from you because I want to really enjoy my device. Thank you and Im looking forward for the responce/assistance form you.

I suggest you don't apply pressure to the screen - it's a Touch - you touch the screen not push it.

I have a new Macbook Pro. When watching Youtube videos, it works perfectly until I attempt to watch the video in full screen. When in full screen, the video freezes immediately and the audio continues. When minimized it works fine as before. Help?

I have a brand new Macbook model A1502. I am taking online college classes that incorporate youtube tutorial videos. I can watch the videos if I don't maximize the screen to full screen. When in full screen, the video freezes immediately and the audio continues uninterrupted. I can press escape and go back to the previous screen and the video continues to play with no problems. Can anyone help me please? This machine is literally just out of the box with maybe an hour of use. Thanks in advance

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

Facebook and streaming audio issues

I like using Facebook and stream audio from my favorite radio stations! However, I am running into adobe flash upgrade issues!!!! I can bring up Facebook but I can't run certain programs within it. I can bring up my favorite radio stations but won't let me stream audio!!!! Any solutions?

What exactly are your issues?
I had an issue where every image found on the blog template was showing up instead of the actual image that represented the blog post. My fix was to make sure of the following:
1. Blog image needs to be small in file size. Many bloggers post images that came straight off their camera and I found that the share tools will grab the most accessbile and light-weight files first. If the image is too big then it won't grab it at all. The share tool grabs the smallest and fastest loading, top-most in the code image first, which means the images found on the template of the blog.
This issue occurs at WordPress too, so it is not restricted to BC but rather the tools provided to share.
2. Try to avoid putting the image inbetween <p></p>'s, when I pulled mine out of the the paragraph format, they were found quicker.
3. Avoid having the image lead off the blog post list before the bodypreview, if you can at all just show the image on within post detail page if you can. I know that having an image in the list helps, but then just put the whole blog in the list, like WP does. Problem here is that most share tools on the list have a problem diciphering what to share, so it shares the whole page, giving everthing a share count. WP does this better. They isolate the independent listings and provide isolated share tools for each list.
Wait a week and the technology will change again.
Good news is that the element that Facebook offers to share a page on the web will be featuring the option to upload an image to accompanying the sharing of the post. You can see this happening at Facebook already when you drop in the link of the post into a news feed.
I hope this helps.
