Help with HP G60 458DX Sound Drivers and Windows 8.1

I have recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 8.1 and my sound is non-existent. As stated in the subject line, I am running an HP G60 458DX, Windows 8.1, 64 bit and the sound device is a Conexant High Definiaiton SmartAudio 221, and a High Definition Audio Device. The driver information on the Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221 is dated 10/2/2008, version 4.58.1.0
Please help.

Hello Tom-Tax,

You can locate the Hardware ID by following the directions provided in How to Find Hardware ID.
I look forward to your response. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Need help with pictures on an external HDD and windows labtop to Ipad3

Hallo everybody!
This week (I finally) bought an Ipad 3 and an Apple TV!
For the time being I still have a windows labtop and an external HDD full with photo's.
The ICloud software for windows has been installed because I would like to stream the pictures from this external HDD to my Ipad and then ofcourse on my flatscreen TV (via Apple TV). And ofcourse back, when I have taken a photo or a movie on the Ipad 3.
I would appreciate some help with the following questions:
do I have add all pictures from the HDD into a new map on the windows labtop. So that via Icloud the contain could become 'in the cloud'.
or do I have to add all the pictures from the HDD into the Itunes map on the windows labtop.
I have connected the Ipad to the windows labtop and via Itunes I have synchroniced a lot of pictures to the Ipad. I asume these are copies? And is it possible to remove them from the Ipad, because it will take a lot of memory (currently already 35 GB from the 64 GB).
Well I hope somebody could help me.
Many thanks in advance!
Ronald from the Netherland

I just found out that ICloud isen't really a storage place for photo's. Just a passing throw station to your other devices.

Help with compatibility of photosmart printer 7760 and Windows Vista 64 bit

Just purchased an HP Pavilion dv5-1150us OS Vista 64 bit,. I have a HP photosmart photo printer model 7760. I did not use the disc that came with the printer to install the printer. Instead I downloaded the needed driver for vista from HP, However, doing so has left me with a printer that prints in a normal mode only, and I do not have any printing software anymore. I cannot change the resolution of the printing for photos where I would want best or max dpi, and have lost all editing and printing options. Is there any way in which I can install the software for the printer and make it work with vista? I was using it with windows XP SP2. and achieved fabulous results. The printer works well and is relatively new. I do not need another cheap printer for documents, which is what this has turned into when using it with my new laptop. Please help.

Hi,
bellow is the link for the latest software download for win vista :

Sound drivers for windows 7

i need sound drivers and the icamera driver for windows 7 32bit software.

They are on the OSx install disk. Assuming you installed Windows using Boot Camp Assistant, boot into Windows and install the drivers from the OSx disk.
You might want to head over to the Boot Camp Forum where the Boot Camp gurus hang out. Your question has been asked and answered many times over there. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

How to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7

how to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7 ? Is it on the basic driver? or do you have to install some other software?
jane

You have to install the rest of the software(s) for the sound card. The software is (if it is with the installation CD, though) called "Creative Smart Recorder" or something like that.

Help with P6N Diamond X-Fi drivers

Ok, even though we have a fair share of threads with problems with this on board sound, im sure some of you must have it working correct.
So if you do, please tell me which driver you are using for the X-Fi.
Im running Windows Vista 64bit UK and if I use the driver from the CD I get the problem with the microphone not working. (It says its connected when its not, and vice versa.)
When I use the driver downloaded from the support page I can use the microphone, but none of the fancy properties of the sound card.
I tried MSI's support and was told:
Dear Customer,
Please install driver patch for the sound card from ftp. (ftp.msi.com.tw)
Driver\Driver Patch 2.zip.
Thank you!
So, I downloaded the file, unpacked it, and have tried different ways of "installing" it. (Clicking on the exe does not seem to work, and copying the files into the filesystem where the installed driver is located did not help either.) Since it had no effect I'm completely clueless to what the idea is behind this patch. If anyone can figure it out I would very much like to hear about it.

Yes, none of the suggestions work.
The first suggestion: Don't use the front panel.
I have already disconnected the front panel completely.
The second suggestion refers to a "Headphone Detection tab" that, although mentioned in the Audio Console help file, does not show up on my computer.
I find it rather amusing that a top-of-the-line board, specially focusing on the on-board audio, does not have a working Vista audio driver.
The board is now almost one year old, and 10 months has passed since the Vista launch.
Whats even more amusing is that Creative, who put their name on the on-board audio, does not want to have anything to do with this on-board sound either.
Reading about all the other problems with the board and experiencing plenty of these problems myself.. perhaps its time to return it, and add myself to the list of people who don't care about this board....

Help with this acoustic guitar sound.

Hi guys,
Having a break from recording vox for a bit. So now on to recording acoustic guitars
I need some help with this acoustic guitar i recored today, it sound ok? but needs help. I'v messed about with EQ but still not happy .
I'v put the recording up as a quicktime movie so you can see mic positions. Processing so far is a bit of compression and a dab of EQ cutting 500 Hz and reverb. Mic is a SE-Z5600.
The performance is far from perfect as this was a once through take for sound tests. Also the sync goes out between the audio and video no idea why
Any help would be great.
John

John,
Hearing it back from a compressed file obviously is going to "skew" things a bit, but I actually fail to see what you don't like about it.
Here's the thing...
When the guitar is good (sounds like yours is), and the player is good (which you are), THAT"S the sound of the guitar.
Yes, mic choice, mic placement, mic pre-amps, size of the room, etc, all play a part, but here's the best kept secret in the biz...
All those things I just mentioned play the smallest part. Don't believe me?
Record that guitar with you playing, with 5 different mic, 5 different mic pres, in 5 different rooms, and you'll be stunned at how similar they all sound. Sure there will be various sonic differences, but those differences would be pale in comparison to a different player playing a different guitar.
Hmm, why not move the mic a bit more to the center hole of the guitar and >get a bit closer.
I would suggest NOT doing this, because of the proximity effect of placing a mic to close to the sound source, unless the mic was set in an omni pattern, and even then, I suggest against it, because a guitar is made to project tone, and when you stick a mic within an inch or two of it, you "choke" all that tone, and it's a very microscopic view of a intended bigger picture.
The "safest" place to place a single mic on an acoustic guitar, is out about 7 or 8 inches, from the 12th or 14th fret. You'll find a very balanced tone here. It's certainly not the only place to out a single mic, but it's the "tried and true" method, that will produce predictable and useable results everytime.
Other than that, a small diaphragm condenser mic will generally sound better on an acoustic guitar than a large diaphragm mic, like the one you're using. Again, that's a safe generalization... not to be written in stone, but will always produce good results.
I think you're recording sounds good. It sounds like you, playing your guitar. Isn't that the goal?

Need help with Soundblaster Live! 5.1 and King Theatre 5.1 speake

Hi,
First time ost and need some help.
Ok i bought a nice Soundblaster Li've! 5. sound card around a month ago. 2 days ago i bought myself som speakers "Kingtheatre 5." I doubt it any of you have ever heard of this brand, i bought speakers from local shop. Ok this is where the problems start. When i try to connect the speakers i can only ever get 4 out of 5 satelites to work and the subwoofer. If i change the wiring around, i will only ever have 4 speakers working at a time. Can anyone help me with the connecting. In the back of the subwoofer i have 3 cables, one says "Centre/subwoofer" the other says "Input | surround L/R" with the word Input on the side of it, and the last one says "Front L/R(Stereo)". At the back of my soundcard i have the following colour plug ins (sorry im only 4, im not used to technical terms) Ok from left to right black, green,pink(mic),blue and a orange/brownie colour. Can anyone help with the pluging it part.
Cheers, sorry about the long post.

Dooda,
If you can post a link for the layout diagram of your speaker system then it will be great.
From your description, you could try this. Connect the audio cable from subwoofer "Front L/R(Stereo)" to Green jack on the sound card, "Input | surround L/R" to the Black jack and "Centre/subwoofer" to the Orange jack on the sound card.
Do a speaker test via the Creative Surround Mixer application.

Help with PageMaker 7.0, Transparent Backgrounds, and Feathering in Photoshop CS5

Hi all,
I am hoping someone here can help me out with a problem that I've been having for more than a week that I can't seem to figure out and it's driving me crazy.
I have a friend who's trying to put together a graphical instruction manual using PageMaker 7.0. My friend would like to have the borders on the pictures in the manual be softened and the background needs to be transparent, because each page in the manual will have a background watermark picture.
I am running into a number of problems. I have been using the feather and contrast options under Refine Edges in Photoshop CS5. While the picture looks and prints great from Photoshop, as soon as I save the picture to a file format that I can import into Word and then PageMaker (more on this step below), the feathering only either becomes white instead of transparent (the rest of the transparent part of the picture is still fine) or the feathering becomes horribly pixelated.
I am not sure which step in the process is causing the picture to degrade. The two file formats that seem to at least retain the transparency through the importing process are PNG and TIFF, albeit horribly pixelated. Could using these file formats cause the quality issue that I am describing? Could it be transferring it through Word first, as described below?
Is there are any other methods that one can use in Photoshop CS5 to soften the border of a picture other than feathering that may work better for these purposes.
Regarding the use of Word to retain the transparency into PageMaker... are there any better ways of accomplishing this? In order for the transparency to be retained, I need to add a text box, send it behind the picture, group it together, and copy the group over in order to retain the transparency using Word. This, needless to say, is a horribly huge pain in the ***. Any suggestions that could cut down the number of steps would be appreciated.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Pagemaker does support transparency for placed files, just not
partial transparency like drop shadows or feathering that
would result in partial transparency.
You can place an object into pagemaker without getting the
white background by making a clipping path of the object
and then saving the file as tiff file. Then you would use
File>Place in pagemaker.
You could also put a background behind your object that matches the page in pagemaker
or use photoshop to make the layout.
