Hp pavilion a1250n says multimedia audio controller not installed, sound not working (windows7)
No sound plays with my logitech ls11 speakers. my computer is a hp pavilion a1250n, running windows 7, 32 bit operating system, and a AMD ahtlon(tm)64 x2 dual core processor 3800+ 2.00 GHz
When i click the speaker icon in the lower right corner, and open the playback devices, it says:
Speaker: anvsoft virtual sound device, default device.
When i ran a troubleshooter, to see if there were any files I should install, i got an error message:
multimedia audio controller couldnt not be installed, driver not found.
In device manager, below the sound video and game controlers tab, it says Anvsoft virtual sound device.
Bellow the other devices tab, it says multimedia audio controler, but there is a yellow triangle exclamation makr over it.
How can I get sound on my computer? Are there any free programs that are compatible that will allow me to have sound?
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this.

Can someone help me with my multimedia audio controller? I've initially installed the updates from the support page and after reboot the Xi-Fi driver is listed.

Multiedia audio controller not working HELP!!!!!!!!
upgraded to win 2000 lost drivers to my multimedia audio controller (no drivers) I believe the model number is sc0209 but how do I get the right drivers to make my sound work again? New at this but
trying to find drivers to get my sound working.Pugdad,
The model number for the sound card is located on the PCB circuit board itself. It should be printed something like CT**** or SB****.

Qosmio F20-136 multimedia video controller not working
In control panel hardware- multi media video controller has the yellow question mark. Also in MCE i get a message saying TV tuner hardware or drivers not working.
I have reinstalled from the recovery disks and installed all updates to MCE 2005 including net.1.1 sp1 and rollup. In control panel hardware there is no entry for TV tuner.
In tools the tv tuner driver is shown as installed.
Any advice would be welcome.\ This is a new machine just purchased so it may be a hardware problemHi
As far as I know you will not find any tuner entries in the control panel.
In the control panel you can find the graphic card option like nView desktop manager of nVidia Geforce.
The TV tuner driver is important to receive the signals in MCE
However, if the yellow exclamation mark appears in the device manager so I assume the driver fails or is wrong. You should try updating it. Please note that on the driver page you will find driver for WinXP and for WinXP MCE. -
HP pavilion g6 says no audio devices are installed?
My laptops internal mic has stoped working and is now saying there are no audio devices installed? The speakers, and the web cam work fine but the mic has stopped working.
Try installing HP Support Assistant which will automatically download and install drivers/updates:
HPSA Link:
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/hpsupport.html
Also, download and install any firmware, BIOS or reinstall sound application from hp.com
Wish you luck,

Multimedia Audio Controller Er
For some reason after I formatted my hard dri've, the sound card isn't recognized. There is no little speaker in the system tray and no sound options at all. I don't have the driver cd. The model number is sb0220. It is a Sound Blaster Li've 5. Digital. What do i do to get rid of the error and have sound? Thank you.
I realize that this is an old post but hopefully someone can point me in the right direction... I was trying to clean up my add/remove programs and i had meant to hit the one above but some how i got rid of the Multimedia Audio Controller ... I have SoundBlaster Audigy 2. this card was installed because the computer had come with a sound card built in on the motherboard and kid broke off the end of the plug in the headset/speaker thingie.
I cannot find my disks (we moved since I instlaled and cant find a blessed thing). How do I get this device working again... Right now its showing up under other devices with big ? ... says Multimedia Audio Controller.
On my add/remove list it shows the CREATIVE MEDIASOURCE (which was RIGHT below the accidentally removed item) and then much further down I see that SOUND BLASET AUDIGY 2 is still installled. In my Device Manager I have listed the following (Somebelong to that sound card on the motherboard I am sure)
Audio Codecs
Intel(r)8280BA/BAM AC97 Controller
Legacy Audio Drivers
Legacy Videio Capture Devces
Media Control Devices
Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device
Video Codec
PLEASE tell me how to get this Multimedia Audio Controller reinstalled so I can again use my SB Audigy 2 card (since I cant use the other with that darn plug stuck inside). I have tried to upgrade the SB Audigy 2 drivers but that didnt seem to work.
I would be most grateful to whomever may be able to help me with this problem!

Need"multimedia audio controller" driver for pavilion zv5340us running XPsp3
Just received a free HP Pavilion zv5340us and can not find the driver for the multimedia audio controller.
Searched everywhere on the net (HP website, Driverguide,etc...) and on my XP cd.
I have everything else working but I have no sound.
Running XP SP3. Does anyone have this driver?Hi:
I see there are no audio drivers for your notebook on the support page, nor does the product description say much about the audio that would help, so...
Click on the multimedia audio controller in the device manager. Then click on the details tab. Post the top string of characters you see there. Those will hopefully ID the manufacturer and model of your audio card, and I can try and find the driver link to post for it.

HP Pavilian 533w - Multimedia Audio Controller Will not load
I have a HP Pavilion 533w that I can't get the Multimedia Audio Controller to load. I am running Windows XP home, and it is a new installation. The error code is 28 and I have been to HP's web site and followed all of their instructions with no help.
Can someone please tell me why that I can't get the onboard sound to work in this computer? I have been working for two days on this thing, and I am about to shoot this thing and build her a computer that works.
P.S.
The sound was working before the fresh install of XP Home
This question was solved.

Hi.
My Desktop Computer(Intel P 4, 512MB of RAM, and Graphics Card with 256MB of RAM)
Also, My Desktop Computer with P 4 doesn't have any access internet since there is no network adapter is installed. As a result, I would not be able to run the pc scan utility, or Reader a web-based applet that identifies my GPU or Audio controller
and finds the latest graphics driver for my GPU, and Audio.
I have two Windows XP installations:
Windows XP SP2(32Bit) which is old and it seems it infected by some viruses.
I have installed another fresh clean Windows XP(32Bit) SP3. However, I have two devices not detected well by Windows XP.
First of all, when saying that I have multi-operationgs systems, I mean there are two operating systems installed on my PC(SP2, SP3) both are 32Bit. The first Windows SP2(NOT installed by me) has all multimedia audio card installed well,
and has SCSI and RAID Host Controller shown the device manager. However, only the VGA is not installed on Windows SP2. However, the second one Windows SP3(Installed by me) has VGA not installed, Multimedia audio NOT installed, and there is no SCSI and RAID
Host Controller in device manager.
First: Yes, my motherboard has integrated video, and integrated audio card
According to the screen shots above, then
The vendor ID of Multimedia Audio Controller is 8086 and the device ID is
24D5.
The vendor ID of Video Controller is 8086 and the device ID is
2572.
I AM EXPECTING THAT KNOWING THE VENDOR ID AND THE DEVICE ID WILL LET ME QUICKLY FIND THE APPROPRIATE DRIVER. HOWEVER, I COULDN'T FIND THE APPROPRIATE DRIVER.
Thus, could you please help me to find them?
I have tried installing a soundMAX card driver, however, I found this error.
I have checked the other Windows XP SP2(32Bit) which is oder installed, and it seems it infected by some viruses.
However, the Multimedia Audio on that Windows is installed well. As here: I only posted these screen shots to show what kind of device is Multimedia Audio Card

Multimedia Audio Controller Problem
I accidentally deleted my SoundMAX audio driver from the add/remove programs page, and now I am getting an error that says my audio is not properly configured, and in my device page, there is a yellow "?!" next to Multimedia Audio Controller. I do not have the CD to reinstall the software like the wizard requires. Also, I tried downloading the unzip(?) driver from Toshiba's page, but nothing worked.

Multimedia Audio Controller WORKAROUND fo
Hello all,?I am experiencing occasional/frequent loss of Audio in both XP Pro and Vista for my X-FI extreme gamer card. After hours of troubleshooting i have discovered the following workaround that may help you if you are experiencing a similar problem. Symptom.Upon initial boot of either XP or Vista the audio has?gone. Multimedia Audio Controller evident?in device manager with exclamation mark. Drivers and Software unchanged since last reboot?How to apply workaround:NOTE: Do not remove drivers or any other software before proceding with the steps below. , Turn off your PC2, Open chassis3, Remove X-FI card4, Boot system again without card in5, Do nothing and turn PC off again6, Re-insert card7, Boot machine into OS again8, Enjoy sound once more?This works everytime for me I can only think its something to do with HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) on initial boot. I can only hope Creative take note of this workaround and fix this soon. For the record i am using both latest drivers for XP and Vista. Apologies if this doesn't work for you I only have one machine so cannot replicate. Tim
There is an alternati've, search this site **removed competitor link** . Can't give you specifics since the mods here will end up removing my post if I do but you can start there. Problem with the alternati've is the expense and the fact that it has only recently released beta drivers for support in Vista with openAL. I don't have this alternati've and I don't know anyone personally that does so I can't honestly say it's better or worse.

Multimedia Audio Controller/driver prob
Help me please.
OK i just got my first sound card today; an X-Fi xtream music.
And i have the problem where i cant install the drivers. I get Multimedia Audio controller as a yellow question mark in the device manager, when XP copies files from the CD to the windows/drivers32 folders (or what ever it is called) it does not work and says there is a data error and this is after installing from the creative cd and XP still says new hardware detected. I have seen a lot of posts about this but the answers are not working for me.
I HAVE DISABLED MY ONBOARD AUDIO through bios, which seemed to fix everyone else's problems.
I have completely uninstalled every audio device/driver i could get my hands on and then reinstalled as a selecti've startup, in the system configuration utility thingo. I cant get rid of 'legacy audio drivers' but i think thats to be expected
I have a logitech quickcam webcam, which i have disabled if that helps anything
I downloaded and ran the 40MB driver update.
I have tried using other PCI slots (do u need to to reinstall the drivers after trying a new slot?)
I am using an asus p4s800-mx se motherboard, Win XP SP2
and i think that sums up everything i have been doing for the last 6 to 7 hours
Also someone was saying irq stuff, i have no idea but here is mine:
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~mike440/irq.JPGAlso apparently i am "ACPI uniprocessor PC"
Does any of this help narrow down my problem? I bet it is something basic, it always is but i am just sick to death of restarting and reinstalling. I hope it does not come down to me reinstalling XP, i only did that the other month and it takes for ever to get my settings back the way i like it and it would not be worth having a soundcard.
ThanksDont worry, dont think anyone was as a matter of fact

I am setting up a brand new PC, but using some old trusted parts, like my SB Li've! Platinum, with the Li've Dri've.
In the past, setting up with Windows XP w/SP never resulted in any problems. I would have the Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe file on CD and once I booted to the Windows Desktop, I could browse the CD, install the drivers without incident.
Enter Windows XP w/SP2 ... this is a fresh install with SP2 slipstreamed into the install media. This comes direct from Microsoft via MSDN Download, and is not a home grown piece of install media.
When the installation completes, I have sound, but I also have the following:
In the Device Manager, under Other Devices, I have an entry for:Multimedia Audio Controller (yellow question mark)
I also have under Sound, video and game controllers, entries for:Creative SB Li've! (WDM)Creative SBLi've! Gameport
When I launch the programs in the Sound Blaster Li've! group, I get the following:
a) Audio HQ"Cannot initialize audio dri've. Reinstall audio driver.
b) Creative Sound Mixer"CeDevcon.dll has returned an error. Mixer will now exit.
c) Creative Restore Defaults"There were some errors encountered while restorine your soundcard's settings. Some settings could not be restored.

Multimedia audio controller driver for windows 7 on compaq presario r3000
I installed Windows 7 on Laptop Compaq Presario R3000. Everything is fine, however, multi media controller driver was not installed. I would appreciate if you let me know where I can get it. I have Driver CD for Windows XP that came with my computer. Thanks.
This question was solved.
View Solution.You're very welcome.
Looks to me like you have to manually install the XP audio driver as follows...
Download and run this file. If it installs the audio, great. If not...close out of any error windows.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-18403-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
Go to the device manager and click on the multimedia audio controller needing drivers.
Click on the driver tab. Click on Update Driver. Select the Browse my computer for driver software and browse to:
C:\SWSetup\sp27325\SMAXWDM\W2K_XP\smwdmNV8, and select the SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio device from the list and see if the driver installs that way.
