IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver problem after windows 8.1 update 1.

Hello. I have HP Probook 4730s. After I installed Windows 8.1 update 1 the sound driver stopped working properly. When I want to play some music, video or even system sounds, sound appears after 1-2 minutes. At that time HDD usage is 100% cause of windows audio device graph isolation. I’ve installed that IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver from HP’s driver support site, but that’s not working. As I see in device manager driver’s release date is 24.10.2012. I think, it’s too old for Windows 8.1. Can you help me? Is there any other newer version of that sound driver? Also I’m sending two pictures where are HDD usage and driver release date.

Hello GDartsimelia,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that after you installed Windows 8.1 on your notebook computer, the sound driver stopped working properly, and I would be happy to guide you towards a resolution!
I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure, I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums, since this is a commercial product. You can do this at:

Windows 8.1 IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver

I was cleaning up my programs and accidently uninstalled IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver. This caused my Beats audio to be uninstalled as well. Is there a way i can get it back? I have tried installing IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver from Hp links but it keeps saying "The hardware detected is not supported by this IDT software package. The install will be aborted." Please help.

Hi,
Version 6491 is newer than 6486.
You should have the Beats audio applet in control Panel. The driver includes the Beats audio software. You should have full functionality. Reboot your system and check Control Panel.
My system is a fairly new HP Envy 810-150se. The latest IDT audio codec for my system is 6486.
Where did you obtain Beats version 6491?

IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver

The IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver for the HP ENVY 15-j121tx Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) is not compatable with Windows 10 Tech Preview, if you install this driver it will make the microphone inoperatable, If you just use the windows driver the microphone works perfectly. Can HP get onto this issue & make it compatable with Windows 10 please.

HP Elitebook 8560p driver update error: IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver

Hi there,
Hoping someone can help..
So I tried updating/installing the latest IDT Audio driver for my Elitebook 8560p, but get this error each time:
I'm pretty sure this is because I stupidly uninstalled IDT soon after getting the laptop.. I did this because I use a seperate audio interface for recording music and didn't want any conflicts. I didn't realize uninstalling this would disable the internal audio entirely (and irreversibly it seems)! My audio still works when I connect my external audio interface, but this is quite annoying as I have to bring the interface with me everywhere, like I can't just watch a Youtube video and listen through internal speaker OR headphone output..I have to hook it up to my interface each time..urgh. My own fault I know, but I would have thought this driver installation package would work and put it back on my system..
FYI, I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
I remember reading a thread about this eact same problem ages ago, someone had done the same thing and was having the same problem re-enabling//re-installing it. I think he managed to find a fix that worked for him that involved removing the battery and holding the power button for 30 seconds, or something along those lines.. I remember trying that method by copying his instructions step-by-step, but it didn't work for me
Anyone else, or any HP tech support know any kind of fix for this? Fingers crosed.
Many thanks for any help or advice in advance!

IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver not installing

HP Support Assistant asked me to update the drivers and programs and I did so. However, I didn't have time to update all so I updated only a few and restarted my notebook to install them. The IDT HD Audio Driver needed to be updated as all audio stopped playing due to this. I tried downloading the Audio Driver thrice but it would never get installed. It would simply download and installation would fail. Now I can't listen to any audio file. Thanks for the help.

IDT High-Definition HD Audio Beats Audio

Hi,
My Pavillion DV7 6B51EA recently had to be restored and I have slowly been working through the issues that this has presented.
However 2 issues persist but the one that is giving me the most grief is that I can no longer use my bluetooth receiver that is connected to my stereo and I believe that IDT is at fault.
The CSR software says the 2 items have paired/sinked, the AZIO APTX Bluetooth dongle displays activity that confirms that data is being transmitted and the MASS Audio Bluetooth remains active confirming that is receiving data (it goes into standby if it doesn't receive data and works faultlessly with my iphone and ipad.
Currently the laptop speakers do not mute handing over the functionality to wireless side of the laptop.
There are 3 drivers on my laptop with regards to IDT
High Definition Audio Device - Does not contain BEATS Audio
IDT High Definition Audio Codec Version 6.10.6329.0 - contains BEATS Audio but the slide controls do not work
IDT High Definition Audio Codec Version 6.10.6381.0 - contains BEATS Audio but the slide controls do not work
I have downloaded other IDT drivers following the instructions as given but again they do not work or fail due to not being compatible with the hardware.
It would appear that I have to find the exact driver for the DV7 6B51EA that may have been downloaded as an update or find a copy of the existing drivers with full functionality but where can they be found for a 4 year old laptop or have I ignored another possibility entirely ?

Did you do a restore or a recovery?
You can install the original drivers using the recovery manager. HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)
If that did not overcome the difficulty, I suggest you do a full recovery back to factory.
HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
Once that is complete then run the HP Support Assistant to acquire any HP updates.
During the recovery there will be an option to backup your personal files to prevent data loss. If you have not done one now would be the perfect time.

IDT Audio Driver Problems on Windows 7

For the past few weeks, I have been dealing with the same audio swings and speaker problems that many other people here have complained of. I am aware of the Driver update for those who have Windows 8 computers, but I have a Windows 7. This computer was bought in last June after my previous HP laptop (which consequently had no issues) needed to be replaced. Restarting the computer fixes it for a few minutes but it always has issues until it inevitably makes it so I am unable to hear anything or play any videos. I have uninstalled, deleted, and reinstalled the IDT driver several times including downloadling directly from the HP website. I have sat and watched as the Beats Audio Settings swing back and forth and watched as Windows Explorer crashes because I attempted to change the volume settings on my keyboard. Most of the time, I can't even restart or shut down my computer anymore, it just stays at a black screen with the power light on until I manually turn it off or the battery dies.
I'm so frustrated with this and even more so at the fact that a fix has been pushed through for Windows 8 users but you're leaving those of us with Windows 7 stuck with unusable laptops. Please tell me how I can resolve this issue or point me to someone who can help me replace my laptop. Thank you.
P.S. I'm not mad at you, just at the situation, I'm sorry for sounding like a jerk.

Hi,
Please try one of the following methods:
1. Uninstall Audio driver, reboot the machine and install the following driver:
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp64501-65000/sp64958.exe
2. Uninstall audio driver, reboot the machine during connect to the internet. Wait for around 10mins and check. Install the above driver if it does not come back automatically.

Audio problems after windows 8.1 update

My audio volume has gone to barely audible after I went to 8.1 however only for certain things.
When I try to listen to a vidio clip on Yahoo or other news feeds I can barely hear anything and when I play
free cell or solitare and make a wrong move the audio warning is just barley audible.
However when I listen to a Facebook audio it comes booming in as before the upgrade. and when Malware bites
does a update the signal is very loud
I re downloaded the realtec audio driver for 8.1 and have gone through all the settings I know about
and nothing works to help.
I would go back to the old Windows 8 ( I don't think 8.1 is any better anyway ) but I will loose my
Microsoft office download and some game downloads I have installed and have to re buy them.
Any Help ?

Hi rckuehl. It may have been caused by installing the Microsoft August 2014 update for Windows 8.1 - KB2975719.
Try uninstalling the KB2975719 to see if the sound problems go away. If not, try installing newer Realtek HD Audio drivers as your E55-A5114 laptop uses Realtek audio drivers; original driver for that model was 6.0.1.7026. The latest Realtek HD Audio driver from Toshiba is version 6.0.1.7329 which was posted 9-25-2014.

USB problems after Windows 8.1 update

Since I updated to windows 8.1 my USB ports have problems. The issues occur when I am trying to use a USB to serial cable. It will work for a short period of time and then stop. The error I get says connected device quit responding. Then it will start working again. Sometimes the system will crash and the error is that the driver unloaded before a que'd request was finished. When this happens, it takes about 5 minutes for the computer to come back up.
I had no such issues before the upgrade. Cisco anyconnect, VPN software no longer works either and I don't have the software myself as it was emotely downloaded by my company tech support, but any suggestion for fixing it would be appreciated as well.

The following document..
Release Notes for Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, Release 3.1

Note: When upgrading to Windows 8.1, uninstall AnyConnect, and reinstall it after your Windows upgrade is complete.

OfficeJet 6700 Premium Problems after Windows 8.1 update

My Officejet 6700 Premium worked great wirelessly under Windows 7 to print & Scan. Since updating to Windows 8.1, I can print to the printer wirelessly (having set it up manually from the printer), but the software won't load and I can't scan. Setting up a network connection using downloaded HP software fails (it just says it failed, no error message), and trying to download the entire software package (which includes scan, which I need), also fails during step 1 of 4. I tried uninstalling all HP software first, but the same errors persist. I don't want to mess things up further (as I said, I'm able to print wirelessly now), but I really want to be able to scan to the computer. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello mfrank1,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having some printing issues since you upgraded to Windows 8.1.
I do have a few troubleshooting steps that we can try to resolve this issue.
I first suggest that we uninstall the old software and drivers. I realize that you have already attempted to do this but I still would like to try it again but this time using the following document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
When you stated that you have the printer connected with a direct connection using wireless, is this with a Bluetooth connection? Do you have a Router that you are going through?
Once the software is uninstalled, please restart the computer. Please disable any firewalls or anti virus protection before starting the next step.
When the computer is back up and running, please click on the following link for the HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver.
Please save the download to the Desktop of the computer so that it creates it's own Icon. Double click on the new Icon and follow the instructions.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

Ideapad S450 booting problem after windows 8.1 update

Hi.. I have a Lenovo Ideapad S450 with windows8. Yesterday while updating to Windows 8.1, it got shut down. When I switched it ON, it started booting continuously. All it displays is 'Lenovo' logo with a progressing bar, shut downs and starts booting again. Please help me if there is any way to sort it out other than System restoration. Thanks.

The point is that the touchpad of Qosmio X70-A series supports some additional features.
One of the features is the Gesture feature. I would recommend disabling it.
I found very nice HowTo document about the Touchpad settings and how to change the Synaptic options.
[How to change the Synaptics touchpad settings in Windows 8?|http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD3101Z30000R01.htm]
It refers to Win 8 but the access to the settings is the same using Win 8.1

Hey,
Try installing this driver: IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver
If that fails, try using the HP Recovery Manager to roll back to the factory installed driver.
Test after both. Let me know if either option worked.
