HP Mini 110-3131DX static audio after reinstall

I had to reinstall Windows 7 starter on my Mini 110-3131DX after which there was no audio,  I have tried installing the driver from the HP.com and CNET without any success.  There is no yellow question mark icon against sound under device manager indicating that installation of driver was okay. However when the speakers are made to test, just a quick static noise is heard.
Have been working on the resolution of this isse for several weeks and so now seeking help.  Thanks in advance.

HI @AKS15 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a superb  place to find answers and information!
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I see that you reinstalled Windows 7 starter and your audio has static.  You tried updating drivers from HP and from CNet but the issue remained.
HP recommends using the drivers provided on the  driver web page for you notebook.  If you install a different one that has not been tested the outcome is unknown.
Downloading or Updating Software and Drivers for HP Computers
Although you do have sound here is a link that may help. No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7).
When you reinstalled Windows 7 starter how did you do it, from the recovery option or from a disk ?
Here is a link to the HP Mini 110-3131dx PC Drivers. Try deleting the driver not uninstalling it and then reinstall the one from the HP site.
Good Luck !

  • HP Mini 110 (XP) - No sound after reinstall

    Hi there! I have a problem after reinstalling my HP Mini 110, and would appreciatte any feedback on this.
    I formatted the pc and installed a fresh version of XP Home edition (SP2).
    Everything went very smooth and all drivers where installed (Downloaded from the HP driver support site).
    Video, network, Intel chipset, Wifi, Bios, everything is working like a charm... expect for the AUDIO.
    I've installed the IDT driver, but when the installation starts it says something in the lines of  "your sound device is not supported by this installer" and shuts down.
    I've tried with several different drivers (all from HP site) with no luck.
    Another thing that caught my attention is that there are no sound devices in the "hardware management" tab of the system.... No sound card is detected! This seems really weird to me...
    What could be the problem ? Any clues ? I should point that before the format the sound card worked perfectly.
    My machine is an HP Mini 110 (1020 LA).
    Thanks a million for any feedback!

    Paul,
    Thanks again for your feedback.
    The interesting thing is that there is no device showing on de hardware management tab... Under sound there are no "unrecognize" devices or anything.... This look weird to me!
    I'm assuming i have and IDT sound device as all netbooks from this series have it, and i had the IDT software installed before formatting the pc.
    It's also importanto to mention that the sound device was working until Sunday before i made the new installation of WXP.
    The strange thing for me is that nothing is showing up in the hardware manager.... There should be at least an unknown device showing me a lack of drivers right ??
    I will aprecciate any ideas of thins i might have to look into to solve it...
    Thanks again!
    Best regards.

  • HP Mini 110-3131DX. Hard drive replacement; do I need a new one and where would I get it?

    I dropped my HP Mini 110-3131DX directly on it's spine and ever since it only turns on to show the startup screen and these error messages:
    HARD DISK ERROR
    Please run the hard disk test in system diagnostics.
    Hard Disk 1 (3F1)
    F2  System Diagnostics
    Then, it takes a LONGGGG time to even get me to the right screen to do the test ( I have to restart the computer to be able to renavigate to the screen) and it says Hard Disk test failed. What do I do now? Do I have to put in a new hard drive? Where do I buy my specific new hard drive? I really need some help.

  • Compaq Mini 110 won't start after cleaning Think Point virus

    Hi
    I'm helping my daughter with the following problem with her Compaq mini 110.
    After removing the Think Point virus according to advice in different places the mini 110 don't boot after power on. The choice of pressing F10 (BIOS setup) and F9 (boot order) appears. If I don't touch any key at startup it starts accessing the hard disk for a few seconds, according to the hard disk LED and hard disk sound. Then it stops the boot procedure. Somewhere on the HP web site I read that pressing F11 repeatedly during boot would give the opportunity to choose operatings system recovery from the recovery partition. It doesn't respond to F11. Setting boot device priority doesn't seem to be a solution, since there is only one choice, so I can't force it into the recovery. I would appreciate any advice how to proceed. Below I add som additional facts.
    Some threads on the forum mentions pressing F6 for recovery funktions, but it doesn't respond. There also ought to be some function on F12, but I can't figure out what. Doesn't respond anyway. Any explanation for F6 or F12?
    Thanks,
    Per
    FACTS:
    Computer model: Compaq Mini 110c-1100SO
    OS is Windows XP as supplied with the computer and was never changed.
    Hard disc diagnostics in BIOS setup performed without error reports (160 GB, disc type suggests Seagate hard disc)
    RAM diagnostics in BIOS setup performed without error reports (1 GB)
    Pressing F9 at startup gives no choices apart from the hard disk, no choice for partitions or USB boot.
    I have set the delay for the user to press F10 to 5 seconds.
    The display/screen works properly during BIOS setup
    Power adaptor connected, and charging LED lights constantly (as I expect it to do)
    Power on LED lights constantly
    Wireless network LED lights constantly
    Caps lock LED flashes briefly at start up, then gets dark.
    When booting stops, background light on display is on, no text or symbols are shown at this state.
    BIOS password has never been activated
    BIOS Administrator Password has never been activated
    Internal Network Adapter Boot never enabled

    Hi,
    On the link below is a brief guide ( and the download ) to create a bootable Antivirus disk.  Create this disk on another PC and when done, start the infected PC so that you can open the DVD drive, insert the Antivirus CD you've created and then restart the infected PC to initiate the process.

    You're welcome, Tim.
    What operating system are you installing on the machine?
    The specs state it shipped with W7 Basic.  That OS should load without issues.
    If you are trying to install XP, it will not install unless you load the SATA ACHI drivers either at the F6 prompt or you need to slipstream them into a copy of your XP installation.
    If you are attempting to install XP, please read this link below and that should solve that issue.
    Your notebook has the Intel NM10 Express Chipset.

  • Hp mini 110 boot disk error after installing new hard drive and system recovery

    Need help,  HP mini 110 Windows 7 32 bit.  using my recovery disks I created i was able to recover to the old 160 gb hard drive.  After I installed new 320 Gig drive and used my recovery disks i now get boot disk error. Looks like system was installed on new drive. but will not boot to complete set up.

    If you use the recovery disk, your machine will restore to its default factory state. Try to reinstall the 320 GB you have if you want it to get back.

  • HP Mini 110-1030CA headphone audio jack: low-qualit​y

    So, the headphone audio jack seems to only give me low-quality unintelligible sound. I've seen various posts about installing the Vista version of the IDT driver, but that didn't work. I don't mean that it didn't solve my problem, I mean it didn't install at all.
    So my question is this: has anyone got a defninitive solution for this? Or should i just keep fiddling with it until i give up and take it back to the retailer and make them deal with it?
    Thanks. Any help is much appreciated.

    I have a HP Mini 110 and I need the pinout for the microphone headphone jack
    Is it the same as a iPOD?
    Why is it so hard to find out how to plug a Mic and Headphone in?
    I am in fact looking to hook up my Mini to my ham radio and I need to find or make a 1/8" phone plug for audio in and a 1/8" phone plug audio out female plug to the 4 pin 3.5 mm audio plug on the mini cable.

  • Mini server won't boot after reinstall.

    I had to reinstall Snow Leopard Server on my Mac Mini Server. I did it via a firewire connection to my MBP. Everything runs fine when I boot in target disk mode from my MBP. Problem is when I disconnect the MBP and boot just mini it gives me an error message that says I need to restart the computer. I have the two 500gb drives on the mini configured in a raid array.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks,

    What the heck does a Mini Server come with for Install media anyway???
    Where's the  BDAqua SOP (standard operating procedure): which Mac Mini Server are we talking about? 2010 or 2011?
    Did the mini ship with Snow Leopard? or is it a current 2011 model that shipped with Lion Server?
    Did it always have that RAID array or was it something that you set up during the current reinstall?
    I only have experience with the current 2011 Mini Server that comes with Lion Server. With that one, the included physical install media is exactly as you find with the current computers that ship with Lion pre-installed: none, none, and none. You boot from a recovery partition (be it on the internal) or on a USB key, and you download a 4+ GB folder that includes Lion + Server stuff. It's a slightly different "server bundle" from Lion client because the setup wizard after the install is specific to server.
    (That's why I have no experience with the Lion Server app store two-step: purchase & install Lion client, then purchase & install (additional) Lion Server sw. My install is single, and I have only a single specific server setup wizard.)
    If you save that folder, you can use it again from another computer to install back on the Mini Server put in FW target disk mode; I've done that from my MBP 13" (early 2011) and the resulting install of Lion Server on the Mini Server has always worked.

  • HP Mini 110 - No audio after replacing hard drive and installing XP

    My wife's Mini 110 recently died and I had to replace the hard drive.  I got everything up and running fine except for the audio.  The driver on the HP site for the 110 will not install as it says that there is no device installed for that driver.  In the Hardware list, there is a PCI Device with a question mark and I cannot get it to find a driver.  Even after installing the chipset driver and flashing the bios there is not audio device working.
    Can anyone out there help?  I'd really appreciate it!

    Hi:
    You won't be able to use the operating system for more than 30 days without a product key. It will just shut down after that and lock you out until you provide a key.
    Your only option would be to keep reinstalling Windows every 30 days...
    That is why I wrote you need to be able to read the product key.
    I agree the instructions we a little bit hard to understand, but I was able to make an installation flash drive that allows me to choose several variations of W7 32 bit to install -- including Starter. I was able to find the ei.cfg file.
    Go to your device manager. Are there any devices labeled with little yellow ! marks?
    If so, please click on each one of them and post the hardware ID's.
    If you don't know how to do that, please read the info at the link below:

  • HP Mini 110-1033ca don't want to install the IDT Audio Drivers.

    Hello everyone.
    I brought a new HP Mini 110-1033ca from Casco in Canada when i visited my Godmother. Now i am back home in Germany and i installed Vista on it.
    Everything got discovered properly and everything works. Except the Audio! 
    I downloaded the IDT Drivers on the HP Webpage and installed them as told in the instructions. But after starting the Setup with the IDT Splash Screen an Error Message came up saying, The detected Hardware is not supported by this IDT-Softwarepackage. Now i redownloaded it and tried it several times, but always the same Message. I even tried to install the Drivers from the swsetup folder manually with the Device Manager but the Device Manager says, the operation was just denied. 
    Now i was pretty much confused what to do.. I looked up several things in the Internet, tried different Drivers and stuff, i really tried everything i can imagine to get this baby to work, but i couldn't figure it out how to get the Audio Device run. 
    I have no idea how to fix it, because the Drivers from the HP page which are for this Netbook tell me they aren't so please, if you have any idea please help me.
    Thank you very much and sorry for my bad english (still learning it)

    @Mortlake,
    Hi,
    On Your old HDD, on partition C there may be folder SWSetup. There are always all extracted SP files with drivers. If You have it find there audio driver and paste here which was for Your audio (Full name of catalog. Example: Sp23142. Something like this. )

  • Hp Mini 110 1013tu Keyboard is Not working after upgrade to win 7

    Hello need help on weird happenings to my keyboard..
    Before i upgrade the Operating System From Windows XP to Windows 7 the Hp Mini 110 is working fine..
    All keys on keyboard is working and touchpad is also working.
    But after upgrading to windows 7 some keys on keyboard are not working like z,x,c,v, left ctrl and other more keys..
    what do you think is the problem??
    Hardware Issue? or Driver Issue?
    please help thank you..

    Hello @MysticDragon ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand some of the keys on your keyboard are not working after installing Windows 7.
    I do not see any drivers available for your notebook for Windows 7 on the HP website, so their might be some compatibility issues as it's going to rely on Windows update to find current drivers. This doesn't mean it will not work, but I cannot say for sure that it will.
    Try this:
    1. Click Start.
    2. Click Control Panel.
    3. Click Clock, Language, and Region.
    4. Click Region and Language.
    5. Click the Keyboards and Languages tab.
    6. Click Change keyboards...
    7. On the General tab, make sure English (United States) - US is selected in the Default input language field.
    8. Click on any other keyboards in the Installed services list.
    9. Click Remove.
    10. Repeat for all other non-English (United States) keyboards.
    You may also want to try rolling back to Windows XP and see if the issue persists. It is possible the issue is coincidental and not the direct result of the update to Windows 7.
    Let me know if this works!

  • HP Mini 110 Audio Questions from a new owner

    Good evening, all,
    Tonight I picked up a Mini 110-3110NR from a local big-box store.  It was a return but 'should' be OK according to the salesperson.  If not, all I need to do is bring it back.
    Well, there are two things that are...  odd... 
    1)  There are a lot of irritating 'ping' sounds coming from the speaker.  I turned off system sounds and now don't hear it.  But, I want some system noises.  Aside from going through each system sound, thought I would ask here.
    2) A little more odd is the fact that while the audio is working and in stereo, the audio only comes from the front right side of the case.  Ah...  Is that normal?
    Anyone?  TIA.
    -Ken

    Will try to answer your problem
    1. What kind of ping sound? A high pitch one? hopefully not like this Call HP ASAP so that it can be fixed.
    2. The stereo sould should come from both speaker but not in the same load, test it here --> left and right
