I have sound either with my desktop speakers OR my HDTV connected with an HDMI cable

I have a Media center desktop - Model M7330n, product number ERR101AA-ABA. It has onRealtek AC97 audio on-board audio (I think) I just upgraded to a GeForce 210 graphics card in order to be able to connect to my flat screen using an HDMI cable. I am running SP3 of Windows XP , have updated to the latest BIOS, have updated the AC97 drivers. Everything is working except I can either have sound on my desktop speakers by designating the Realtek AC97 as the default audio output or I can have audio on my TV by designating the NVIDIA Hi-def audio as the default device. Is there a way of have both my speakers active and my HDMI audio. I looked through all the post and saw some no sound issues that were not quite the same but none helped my. It is not too onerous to just change the default audio output when I want to watch recorded TV but I think there must be a solution to this. HP tech support says you can only have one active. I was wondering if I could have both active by adding a new sound card. I have PCI slots available.
Thanks in advance for any help

I have reached the same conclusion in the mean time. I have done a bit of investgation in to other grahics cards and am seeing some that show SPDIF connections from the card to the mother board. I was not familar with SPDIF but it did a little bit of sluething. It is of course a digitally enconded voice. I am guessing that in that case the mother board ( assuming it supports this hardware option) would use this output and be able to translate that digital audio to its other audio outputs. That is a lot of guessing of course. I think my "solution" might  be a whole new desktop - a rather drastic course of action! I was in the proceess of getting ready to upgrade this machine anyway with a new graphics card (which I will now return), go to Win 7, and maybe even a new digital TV reciever,  and I don't want to throw good money after bad anyway.
Thanks for your comments

    My desktop IMac OSX 10.6.8 : IMovie '11: Trying to upload a home movie clip from my Panosonic camera model PV-DV203D. I've had this camera several years, and used it with Windows desktop. Now trying to work with my Mac. I have a USB cable, both ends fit, but iMovie '11 does not recognize it. Is there a driver fix for this?

    What kind of Mac to you have?  This camera is a tape based DV one that connects best with firewire and I cannot tell if your Mac has firewire.  If your mac *does* have firewire, get a camcorder firewire cable and try again.
    ETA:  Oops, I am pretty sure that all the "desktop iMacs" have firewire, so you should be good to go.  You will probably need a cord that goes from FW800 to your camcorder.

    Hi, stig2013. 
    I would recommend the steps in the article below.  See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps. 
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

    Hello, I have a sql 2005 server, and I am a developer, with the database on my own machine.  It alwayws works for me but after some minutes the other developer cant work in the application
    He got this error
    Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
    and When I see the log event after that error, it comes with another error.
    SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
    He has IIS5 and me too.
    I created a user on the domain called ASPSYS with password, then in the IIS on anonymous authentication I put that user with that password, and it works, on both machines.
    and in the connection string I have.
    <add key="sqlconn" value="Data Source=ESTACION15;Initial Catalog=GescomDefinitiva;Integrated Security=SSPI; Trusted_Connection=true"/>
    I go to the profiler, and I see that when he browses a page, the database is accesed with user ASPSYS, but when I browse a page, the database is accesed with user SE\levalencia.
    Thats strange.
    The only way that the other developer can work again on the project is to restart the whole machine. He has windows xp profession, I have windows 2000.
    If you want me to send logs please tellme

    Well here's my problem, maybe you can help. Intermittenly I get a login failed when connecting to a db engine through Server Management Studio using Windows authentication. When this happens the following entries are generated on the server's application event log:
    Event Type:        Error
    Event Source:    MSSQLSERVER
    Event Category:                (4)

    Computer:          <server name>
    Description:
    Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: <ip address>]
    I've already ensured that the server is set to mixed authentication mode. Oddly enough, the workaround that I've found is that if I remote desktop into the server, log in and then log back out, Management Studio is suddenly able to connect again. No idea why it works. 
    As I said before, it is intermitten. Some days it errors on login, other days it doesn't and there are no configuration changes between them. Also, both client and server are in the same domain and same site so there is no VPN or anything in between. I'm really quite stumped. Any help would be great, or if you can point me in the right direction of where to look. Thank you in advance!

    You cannot link to another smartphone via Bluetooth from your iPad except perhaps to use the Xperia's personal hotspot (WiFi is supported, but I'm not sure about Bluetooth). If you wish to transfer files or data, that's not possible.

  • I have the macbook purchased in early 2010 and i just bought a kanex hdmi cable to connect my laptop to my tv so i can not get sound on my computer. I then was told to purchase the monster icable to get sound but i still can not get sound. help?

    please help

    If you connect the MacBook using a Mini DisplayPort/HDMI adapter you will need to use external speakers for audio. The Mini DisplayPort/HDMI doesn't carry audio and there're usually no audio plugs on the TV to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI. Only the Mid-2010 (7,1) MacBook can output sound along with video to your HDMI. All others output video only with the HDMI adapter.
    If your TV has a DVI plug you can use a Mini DisplayPort/DVI adapter. The TV will have RCA audio plugs for use with the DVI.
    Some of the newer TVs can use different input audio plugs with the HDMI. You'll have to check with your TV manufacturer to find out if your TV can do this.

  • Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

    I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

    oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

  • Database fileds are not coming when connecting with ado and they are coming when connecting with odbc

    Post Author: yagya

    Hi , I am using crystal report XI R2 in visual studio 2005 . Backend is sql server 2000. I have made a connection with odbc connectivity and using dsn. I am using a stored procedure as datasource of report. It is working fine all the database fields are available. Now when i try to connect with the ado connection having same stored procedure as datasource of report , I am not getting data fields. I dont know where is the problem in my stored procedure or in report. But when i connect through system dsn using odbc connectivity everything is working fine. A MAP filed dialogue box appears when i try to change the datasource location to ado from odbc.

    There is a barely acknowledged issue. For Mac users Apple has released an update to the app, but for iOS users the recommendation is for users to update their ipad to the most recent operating system.
    There may be a fix coming for iOS6 users (which seem to be many of those having problems) or there may not be. If your ipad isn't up to date then you can update it and see if that helps, or if you don't want to update then you may want to wait and see if there is either a fix or if it fixes itself.

    You can't do it because that is not, and has never been a feature of the iPhone. Bluetooth file sharing and bluetooth sync are not supported. The only thing for which you can use a bluetooth connection with a computer is tethering.

    My Iphone calendar will connect with my wife's ipad calendar but I cannot get it to connect to my new ipad mini calendar.  What to do?

    My experience with hotel wifi is that it's an open, and unsecured, connection, but unless you agree to their terms on a launch page, you can't go any further or connect. Sometimes I need to force safari to come up and even make it go to a page, to trigger the auto load of the 'agree to our terms' page.
    Unless your machine is work provided so maybe could be blocked from unsecured net access?
