  • Pavilion DV7-3090eo sound problem

    Hi,
    I have a major problem that I need help with ASAP!
    I just bought my first HP ever and as soon I came home and turned it on I realized that I can't use Skype and watch a movie or play a game at the same time because I use headphones in respect of my roommate. I need to solve this really quick because it's starting to get on my nerves. The sound from the game or movie goes out in my speakers and skype in my headphones.
    When I don't use Skype all the sound is in my headphones.
    I have a pavilion dv7-3090eo, Windows 7 x64 and drivers from oct 20th 2009 (the latest I could find).
    I have also tried to switch so my headphones to be my standard audio output but then all sound died and I had to restart my system.

  • Pavilion dv7-1720us Sound Problem

    Hi, this laptop is fairly new, and for some odd reason my built-in speakers have not been working right. They work correctly, however, they do not sound as good as they did normally. There is a noticeable change in the quality, and it sounds distorted. I don't know if it something wrong my laptop and i need to send it in or what the problem is. I am running Vista Service Pack 2 x64 bit.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-6b78us Sound Problem (sound routes to built-in speakers during voice chat)

    I'm having an issue with my laptop. When I play using Steam with headphones plugged in, and  I attempt to start a voice call, the sound routes to the built-in speakers and I cannot switch it back to just headphones. 
    I tired unplugging and replugging the headphones, that didn't work,and  turning down the speaker sound made the game sound not go through the headphones. What could be wrong? Restarting fixes the issue, but it happens everytime I attempt to voice chat...

    This used to happen to me when I 1st purchased my laptop. Heres a solution that worked for me.
    RIght click on your audio icon next to the clock, then left click the "Playback  Devices" option.
    On this window, look for the tab named "Communications" at the top. Heres a screenshot: http://puu.sh/4OtOO.png
    When on this tab, click on "Do Nothing" this will prevent windows from switching your headphone to the speakers everytime you get a new notification.
    Cheers.

  • HP Pavilion Dv7 No sound through Headphones.

    Hi,
    The speakers work fine, but when i plug in the headphones I dont get any sound, maybe an occasional loud click when i insert the jack.  I tried disabling and renabling the playback devices but still nothing.
    Help would be appreciated, the laptop is a day old and headphone use is essential for me.

    Are you certain you are plugging in the headphone and mic plug into the correct jack?
    Please identify your notebook/pc .
    Look at the base/rear/side of the notebook/pc at the barcoded sticker. 
    Post items numbered 1 and 2 on the following example of an HP notebook's barcoded sticker. Your barcode may be slightly different but will still have the important imformation needed for us to help you.  
    ###Do not post the serial number as it is personal information.###
    Post the installed operating system version ( and whether it is 32 or 64-bit ) and whether the CPU is an AMD or Intel product
    Not posting all of the information as requested will delay our responses and slow troubleshooting of the issue that led you to author a thread.
    Is your notebook/PC still within its warranty period?
    Best regards,

  • HP Pavilion DV7-6154nr incorrect sound driver?

    Hello, i purchased this laptop a few years ago, and since then I've had to reformat and upgrade my windows install.
    After the first time I did a hard-drive format, i noticed my audio quality was MUCH worse, and my lap was NOT using the intergrated Subwoofer(Beats Audio). I have audio, but its not the same quality.
    I have been advised to install the IDT sound drivers for my model, but I still can't access the beats audio interface after, nor will the subwoofer or enhanced sound work.
    After installing the recommended sound drivers, I go to Control Panel>Sound and attempt to find anything with a hint of the beats audio interface or settings, but all I see is "2-High Definition Audio Device" speakers, and Device manager lists 2 audio interfaces, "AMD High Definition Audio Device" and " High Definition Audio Device"
    I'm pretty sure theres nothing wrong with my speakers, they just stopped using the enhanced sound and subwoofer after my reformat, right after in fact.

  • Sound messing up on a Pavilion dv7

    Pavilion dv7

    I got this computer and it seems that the sound will mess up when it goes into standby. Sometimes when I wake it up the speaker will not play nor the headphone jacks but then it will take as little as loging off the user and in log off the sound will come back. Any paches for this?

  • I have a HP Pavilion dv7-1444 running Vista 64 bit. I have lost all sound.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7-1444 running Windows Vista 64 bit. I have lost all sound. There's a red x next to the speakeer icon on the bottom right of the screen. I have reloaded drivers, checked Device Manager, tested sounds, HP Support Assistant says I have the latest BIOS installed. I tried a one prong earphone in the two prong headset and got no sound. The mute button and the volume slider don't work either. 
    Please help me if you can.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45073.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load.  Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
    If you still have no audio, open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services.  Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Start-up Type= Automatic
    Audio Service
    Multimedia Class Scheduler
    Windows Audio
    Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
    If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type',  select Automatic and click Apply to save the change.  Then click the Start button.

  • My brand new hp pavilion dv7 has no sound-seemed as if it did first day

    new pavilion dv7-6c20us had a normal windows default beep 1st day-never tried anything with sound til last nite-tried to watch video for 1st time and no sound-did system restore still no sound. IT person at my job looked it over too and is lost as well. Windows 7 . I haven't used laptop at all except for dragging pictures from external hard drive onto it. I can play a movie with sound on tv with HDMI cable, and in sounds looks like its working but isn't audible. I can hear a click when I hit mute with headphones on.

    If speakers are set as default and still no sound go to Device Manager and uninstall the IDT Audio device,choosing to also delete the driver. Retart the laptop and install the latest IDT driver from your models driver page. You may want to download and save it first in your Download folder.

    Hi,
    Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar ans select 'Playback Devices'.  Double click the 'Speakers and Headphones' entry and in the following window, click the Enhancements tab.  In the box containing these enhancements, make sure there is only a tick against 'Loudness Equalization' - remove any others.  Next click the Advanced tab and check that '16bit, 48000Hz ( DVD Quality )' is showing - if it isn't choose this selection from the dropdown box.  Click Apply and then click OK on all remaining open windows.

  • No Sound Speakers on computer not working, but head phones are for HP Pavilion Dv7

    The speakers on my Hp Pavilion DV7-3164cl have stopped working. The only time sound works is when I use headphones or hook up the computer to my tv. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the IDT High Definition Audio Codec (Driver Version 6.1.6345.0) and the ATI High Definition Audio Device (Driver Version 5.0.7000.6) for my computer via device manager. I recently updated the HP Support program for my computer, but even when I tried to do a system restore it didn't fix the problem.  I'm begining to think it could be a faulty wiring issue, but I'm not sure how to fix that. Any ideas?
    My operating system is Windows 7 Home Operating System
    Your time is appreciated.

    Hi,
    As a last try you can perform a recovery on the computer (Reset to factoy settings) by tapping F11 as soon as you turn it ON. Make sure to have your data backed up before doing recovery.
    HP Notebook PCs - Recover Windows 7 Operating System Using HP Recovery c01895783
    If recovery also doesnt help then it has to be speaker issue. To fix that you can call HP Technical Support to get it replaced if you still have a warranty on the notebook.
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
