HELP No Audio Device Installed on HP dv4-145dx running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2

I recently completed a Windows update and now my audio device is not functioning at all.  I am being told that NO AUDIO OUTPUT DEVICE IS INSTALLED. I have tried to use the Update Driver function and keep receiving the message " WINDOWS FOUND DRIVER SOFTWARE FOR YOUR DEVICE BUT ENCOUNTERED AN ERROR WHILE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL IT."
If anyone has advice on how to resolve this issue please help. Thank you.

Hi,
It seems that the Audio Driver is corrupt: 
Please click Start->In the Search Field above, type DEVMGMT.MSC and Press Enter, it opens Device maanger Window,  click + next to Sound, Video and Game COntrollers, right click on IDT or High Definition Audio Device entry, and click uninstall.
Click Start->All Programs->REcovery Manager->Select NO on Software Program Installation, click Next, select YEs on Hardware Driver installation, click yes, it shows all Drivers, choose Audio Driver, and click Install.Restart the PC, and check if the issue has fixed. If not, go to Control panel->Sound, on PlayBack Tab, right click on empty Space, select Show Disabled Devices, Show Hidden Devices, select Speakers, and click Set Default, play a file in Media Player, check to see if it works.
Thank You.

  • Installing the adobe flash player in windows vista home premium service pack 1

    Hi,
    I have been having some problems downloading this for over a year now even when I reinstall or reboot my pc or whatever, even change the security settings so I need your help. I found the support center which said:
    http://http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#Download but then I dont even know how to locate the flash folder, where is that? How do I find it?
    then do I have to highlight 10a before right clicking it? otherwise where do I right click exactly? when you say to run the flash player installer, do you mean to just click it? Cause I did and it came on but then even after downloading or installing the uninstaller and running it then installing again, it wont work even when I do that and then reboot my pc...Is there any possibility that it cant work on my pc? How would I know?
    See...Im no tech expert so I really need your help. Please reply asap. Thanks a lotttt!!!

    Hi, well I'm sorry you are having such a hard time. We'll see what the problem may be. First to answer your question,
    the OS means operating system. Which if you are using Windows, then your OS is Vista. It could be XP or the newest one
    which is Windows7, Win7 for short. Now if someone is using a Mac, then that would be their OS.
    Now your computer and all computers can install and run Flash Player. However there are a few things that can cause a problem, so I'll list a few.
    The first thing and most important is that you must be the Administrator of your computer. If this is your computer and you set up the accounts, the first account set up would be the Administrator account. You can look at that as the "Boss"
    Now some people will set up accounts for other people but they are not Administrator accounts, they are called User or Limited accounts. They cannot be "Boss":-) There are some other things, but I'm stating it this way, so you can better understand.
    When you Install programs, like Flash Player, you have to use the Administrator account to do so.
    Don't think you are the only one having problems. We'll find out what it is and fix it.
    Since using the Administrator account is the most important, I want you to go down to where the clock it. With your mouse, right click over the time that is showing. Then when the small window opens, left click on Adjust Date/Time.
    Then post back and tell me what you saw.
    Thanks,

    Hi Abdallah,
    According to your description, could you please post the summary and detail logs for further analysis? By default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
    Usually, the error occurs when the Windows Installer Service is not running or the Windows Installer registry settings are corrupted.  I recommend you reset the Windows Installer Service settings in the registry and restart the Windows Installer Service,
    then reinstall SQL Server 2008 R2. For more details, please review this similar
    article.

    Hellooo Apple Community!
    I'm trying to install iTunes on my computer running Windows 7 Home Premium. I'm not sure if iTunes is compatible with my computer operating system because when I try to install it, it says the installation is completed but it says there was an error so it won't let me get itunes! Can someone please tell me if iTunes can be downloaded and installed on "Windows 7 Home Premium" and if so, how?! I need iTunes asap, I have an iphone 4 running ios 6.1.3. Please get back to mee!!
    Thankyou thankyou thankyou!
    Natalie.

    I just tried running the Lenovo Hard Drive Quick Test both in normal mode and in safe mode.  Both times it indicated a failed read test on the HDD. The last two tests also failed.  I forget what those tests were called.
    I am really beginning to think I have a bad HDD and the problem just happens to be in the reserved partition where my factory system software resides.

  • Can I instal SAP Netweaver 2004s trial on windows vista home premium

    Hi ,
    Can I install SAP Netweaver 2004s trial on WIndows vista home premium. Please advise.
    One more thing is I am not able to download the Trial version from the SAP's FTP site. Because ftp is blocked in our company. Is there any other site from which I can download the trial version. Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Sam.

    In this Forum it appears that Windows 2000 with SP4 will work as well (haven't tried it).
    If you've got VISTA you could consider running the trial on a Virtual Machine. Parallels,  and vmware offer commercial vm products for generating Virtual machines whilst Microsoft (Virtual Pc2007) and VBOX offer Free virtualisation products.  Vmware also provides a FREE vmware server virtualisation product --this works fine as well although no multi-media support. However if you only need the Virtual Machine to run the Netweaver trial then that's no big deal.
    As I've posted elsewhere a Win XP pro Virtual Machine using only 512MB of RAM will give quite adequate performance of the ABAP trial. Don't even THINK of the Java edition unless you've got at LEAST 2GB - even on a Virtual Machine.
    Cheers

  • Can't install quicktime or itunes I recieve error code 2738.  I'm running windows Vista 32 with Service Pack 2.  I have tried old and new version of both programs.  Also, have gone through Apple's online help with no good outcome

    Can't install quicktimeor uninstall it for that matter and itunes I receive error code 2738 with both downloads.  I'm running Window Vista with Service Pack 2.  I have check for all window update.  I have gone through Apple itune help list.  Even going into cmd to do regsvr32 vbscript.dll which was successfull. Can you help...my son had to register his ipod at the neighbors house..What going on.
    Son even call apple with no help and was give Microsoft number no help there either they wanted me to call HP.....run around

    Excellent news!
    Strange how sometimes the fixit works better than the manual methods, and sometimes the manual methods work better than the fixit. It differs from Microsoft fixit to Microsoft fixit too. (Unfortunately, because these "anomalous 2738s" are pretty rare as install errors go, I don't have a good feel yet for whether or not it's the fixit or the manual method that's more likely to work in iTunes/QuickTime installation contexts.)
    Afraid I'm not very good on earbud troubleshooting, but fingers crossed the folks over at the iPod communities might be able to help:

  • Unable to install iTunes 8.1.1 for windows vista home premium 32 bit

    When program is installing from version 7.3, a message comes up stating I have a newer version of QuickTime which is impossible. Having purchased a new iPod Nano I cannot use it because iTunes 8.1.1 has not worked out bugs, or so it seems, to download it successfully. If anyone has had this happen and figured out what the problem is, I would love to read your answer.

    Hi,
    Yes, I have followed the troubleshooting tips in the following article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926.
    I still had the issue after removing the application and cleaning up the installer files on my computer.
    Two weeks ago I spoke with Apple technical support. We were unable to come to any conclusion as to any reason why the computer states there is a newer version of QuickTime.
    Quite frustrating having purchased an iPod Nano.

  • Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes allways crash and stuck i made some troubleshoots like reinstall again but nothing and my itunes is update and the system is windows vista home premium.Please help me...

    Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes always crash and stuck and i can not sync my device, i dont no whats wrong because the itunes even can not  acess itunes store, still loading waiting for itunes store and nothing.I tryed reinstall itunes but just waste of time.
    My itunes is update, iphone 3gs 4.3.4, system is windows vista home premium.
    Please help me.

    I also have the Mcaffe security centre so on the face of it we have very similar situations and I had not problems.
    You asked what I meant about saving the installer on your PC.
    When you go to the iTunes download page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    And click on download, you should be offered the choice of running the installer or saving it. You need to click on save and then choose a folder on you PC where you want it saved. But I think you already did that.
    After the installer file - iTunessetup.exe - is save on your computer, you double click on it to run it.
    It's very odd that the installer fails at different stages. usually when the installation fails, it is at a specific stage and usually generates an error message.
    I am afraid I am mystified. Have you had any other problems with your PC which might suggest a general problem not specific to iTunes?
    The only other suggestion I have is to download a fresh copy of the installer - in case it got corrupted. You could also try using "run as administrator" to run the installer. It should be an option if you right click on the installer file.
    The other thing it might be worth trying is to install it from another account, but you would need to create another administrator account if you don't a;ready have one. Or if you have another account that is not an admin account, you can temporarily promote it from the control panel>>User accounts.
