Internal microphone in Pavilion dv9700 ?
My control panel the sound device states the microphone is not plugged in. Is there an internal mike? If so how to turn on? or do I need an external mike?
I'm running into a similar issue. I have Pavilion dv6000 and I recently upgraded to Windows 7 and my internal mic isn't working either. I have downloaded the most recent driver from Realtek and still no luck. The system shows it is working correctly, however when i test by recording using accessories recorder and skype - i get a message stating the computer cannot hear me. first I heard static when using the mic now after updating driver, no static, but still no mic.
I have been unable to figure out what is wrong. HP doesn't offer support for Windows 7 for my system. Do I really need to downgrade back to Vista to get my mic back?
I've seen there are many others who have the same problem - and i've tried several of the fixes, checked device manager and made sure settings are correct. This worked beautifully before the upgrade now, pc is faster, but mic is out of order.
any assistance for what seems to be a common problem after upgrade would be appreciated.

Recently installed Windows 7 on Pavilion dv6748us - internal microphone does not work
Hi,

I have been searching the web extensively, without success, to find how to resolve this issue.
I recently installed Windows 7, 32 bit, on my wife's HP Pavilion dv6748us laptop. Now her internal microphone does not work.
Have gotten some "roadside" advice to use a Windows Vista driver; Have no idea what the driver is or how to get it.
Have found some information about uninstalling realtek audio driver and reinstalling an older version; Have no idea on this one either.
Would really appreciate a definitive answer with a positive result.
Thanks for all help.
The drivers for the laptop are located here. select Vista and Driver-audio. The Vista driver should work. You can uninstall the driver from within the Device manager. Start --> type devmgmt.msc and the device manager will open. Locate the HD audio device and right-click it and update the driver.
After that is done go to Control Panel and Sound and the recording tab up top. Check to see if the microphone is grayed out. (not grayed out means driver is properly installed). The microphone should also have a green checkmark next to it. It is now a matter of selecting the microphone then selecting Properties to enable the microphone and then test and adjust the input level. Look at the tabs (listen,levels and advanced).
Had you considered trying Windows update or the Realtec website as a drivers source?

2015 Microsoft MVP - Windows Experience ConsumerHi:
Looking at your system information you could have one of two possible audio cards:
Conexant HD audio or the RealTek HD Audio
The fact that you couldn't install the RealTek HD audio driver indicates to me that you don't have a RealTek audio card. Check your device manager and look at your sound card and check to make sure which audio card you have.
Here is the Vista 32 bit driver for the Conexant audio card:

Here is the Vista 32 bit driver for the Realtek audio card:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=32...
If you in fact have the Realtek audio card, I would download and install the latest, greatest HD driver directly from the RealTek site:
Accept the agreement, download and install the first one on the list. Maybe it has been updated to fix the issue you are experiencing.

Internal Microphone not working on Pavilion dm4 Laptop
I have an IDT High Definition Audion CODEC internal microphone on a Pavilion dm4 laptop.
I was advised by an helpful HP support person to uninstall and re-install drivers and this I have done a couple of times.
Occasionally the microphone works but more often it is still not working from Start up. It is not working today!
I am trying to use Skype.
I have checked that the driver is up to date. ( right click on IDT in Device Manager) and this was confirmed.
I would be very grateful for any other suggestions.
ChristopherThanks for the suggestion.
I opened the Sound control panel as you suggested and the Internal Mic (IDT) is shown in the list of microphones and has a green tick ( and is already enabled in properties). It is selected as a default device. ( the icon shows a picture of the laptop indicating the microphone on the lid not the picture of the microphone as shown in your clip)
In the Sound control window there is a sound indicator panel to the right of the internal Mic Icon that has a green bar that moves up and down - indicating that the microphone is responding to sound.
However it is still not working in Skype and it is the Internal Mic that is selected as the device here.
Very frustrating as I really would like to Skype. I tried uninstalling and re-installing Skype Version 5.5.0.117 and this has not made any difference.
Any other thoughts?

If this does not help, take the computer to the Apple Store to have it checked out.

Internal microphone Pavilion 9760 doesn't work
After upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, the internal microphone doesn't work. In Configuration Panel, Sound, tab Recordind it says: no devices are found. Speakers and webcam work perfectly. Seems like Windows can't see the mic. Anyone a solution?
MarcRemove the battery and look in the compartment where the battery was installed. You should see a printed part number and a product name. Please post one or both of them (with all alphanumeric characters here).

Internal microphone stopped working today - Pavilion G7 - C2M31UA#ABA / Windows 8
Hey there
I am using Skype quite often, but today my internal microphone stopped working. I restarted Skype, my laptop and I also followed all steps of you trouble shooting page. No change ...
Any ideas?
Thanks
Bettina
This question was solved.
View Solution.Enter your device manager.
Can be found by pressing windowskey + x.
Press Sound, video and game controllers.
And right click and remove the one called Realtek high definition (should be something like that).
Reboot the computer, this should make it reinstalll the driver på itself.
If this doesn't work, search for the program called recovery manager. In here you pick the one furthest to the left, called something with reinstall driver. Here you find the one called IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver check it, and press install.
Since it used to work, and you dont have windows 8.1. If this still doesn't fix it, it must be some setting regarding your microphone. So try right clicking your speaker icon down in the right corner, when in desktop mode and pick recording units (translating directly from danish). Please let me know what you see in here.
Best regards

Internal microphone not responding
My internal microphone will not work on my HP pavilion dv6000 notebook (specifically dv6448se). Vista claims the microphone is active, but it won't pick up a signal.
I'm running the most up to date conexant audio drive version 4.33.1.61. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the HP website as well as letting windows try and install the drivers.
This seems to be an issue that has been affecting countless people and needs to be resolved ASAP!
Notebook details:
32-bit vista
pavilion dv6448se
p/n: BA448UA
s/n:[text removed for privacy]I had same problem on my HP G62 after disabling the mic. Some months later I couldn't find an obvious way of enabling it again, this is how I resolved it:
Right click speakers icon on task bar.
Click on Recording devices.
Right click anywhere in box below where it says "Select a recording device below to modify its settings:"
Tick box "Show Disabled Devices".
You should see the Microphone icon appear. Right click it and Enable.
Hope this helps. -

This question was solved.
View Solution.Try the steps listed in this document from HP. It has the most common solutions and steps to isolate the issue.
It is possibly a hardware issue since an external microphone works without any issue, but let me know what happens with each step of the document as that will help determine if it is a hardware issue or not.
Also, let me know the results of the steps in the Using Windows Sound Recorder to test the microphone section. If this recorded file also exhibits the same behavior, then it is definitely not any third party software causing the issue.

Satellite U400 - Internal microphone is too quiet
I am running on Windows7 x64. I have downloaded latest sound drivers (4.98.6.61) and now is internal microphone very quiet although its volume is on max.
I had Vista x64 before and everything was ok. I have tried Vista drivers on Windows 7, but nothing changed - still quiet mic.
Thanks for an advice.Hi
I had the same issue with my Satellite U400 but on Vista. After updating the sound driver and BIOS the issue did still exist.
After searching a little bit here in the forum I activated the microphone boost and this was the solution! :)
1.Open the "Control Panel" (Standard view)
2.Click on "Hardware and Sound"
3.Click on "Sound"
4.Click on the "Recording" tab.
5.Mark the Microphone and then press on the "Properties" button.
6.Click on the Custom tab and set the check by Microphone Boost

Re: Satellite Pro L500-1PU - internal microphone does not work
I have an L500 -1PU Toshiba, running on 32 bit Windows 7,
The webcam is working wonderfully but the internal microphone is not working properly.
I had an external microphone so i hadn't noticed this problem when i got on skype, but i've recently discovered that when using the webcam the person on the other end can hear faint noises from my computer when i'm playing music or watching a video clip.
How can i solve this and get my microphone working properly such that i can control the volume and actually get full service from my otherwise decent notebook?
ThanksHi
Possibly this Toshiba FAQ could help you:

Its a matter of the settings.
This issue occurs if the microphone volume in the speakers properties is enabled.
After disabling this point the issue with acoustic feedback does not appear anymore.
Hope this helps!
