Mini CQ10t-100 IDT audio volume really low even when maxed out

Just got my mini in today and the audio volume is very low.  Even at 100% you can barely hear it.  Ive downloaded the latest driver on hp's site and im still having the same problem.  Im running Windows XP SP3 with IDT driver version 5.10.6217.0.
Doing some google searches I found a couple of sites that recommended uninstalling the IDT driver and using Vistas High Definition Audio CODEC driver but I dont have that option with XP.  How can I get this working correctly?

Unfortunately, you are not the only one. This has been reported elsewhere, and there doesn't seem to be any fix that I have seen. Your only solution may be to revert to 10.4.6.
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news,

  • Sound volume low, even though maxed out on sliders

    My iMac no longer seems to be playing sound at maximum volume. I am sure it used to be plenty loud, now, I have to really listen when there is sound, especially on things like .mac tutorials. I have the volume sliders maxed out.

  • Background volume too low even when turned up to 200%

    I'm just making my first film with iMovie '08. I can't seem to get the volume of an audio clip to play louder. I purchased a specific song on iTunes. I then brought it into my movie as background music. I've turned up the volume to 200% and reduced all of the audio clips to 15%. This is driving me crazy! Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? The background audio is just too low and I can't seem to increase it.
    Thanks for your help.

    When you play music from iTunes can you play it at full volulme? If so, it is not the MBP it is either something to do with the MP4 player (what are you using for that) or the conversion.

  • X-Fi Xtreme Audio - Volume goes low, static, then comes back.

    Hi all, I have a problem that just developed with my sound after 3 years of owning this PC. Is this the infamous static problem with the card or something else I can fix? Thanks.
    I was playing a game the other day when the sound 'cut out'. If I turn the volume on my speakers up louder I can sometimes hear what should be playing, it's very quiet and sometimes distorted. There is also a loud hiss and static when the volume is at standard levels whilst the sound is doing this. Sometimes I can't hear anything if I turn it right up even, it's just the static.
    There have been the odd pop, crackle and even strange noise coming from it on occasion over the last few days.
    After a while it just decides to go back to normal and will work for a while and then do the same thing again. Will happen when playing games or even just on the desktop (listening to music to test this)
    I have unplugged my speakers (2 desk speakers with subwoofer) and put headphones in, they are doing exactly the same thing so it is not the speakers.
    I have updated the drivers. No change.
    I'm baffled. Sometimes even restarted the computer doesn't fix it, it just decides to work again.
    It's almost like it's getting inteference or picking up a staticy radio, and then cuts out again, but obviously i know that's not what it's doing.
    Any solutions or am I looking at buying a new sound card here?
    I'm not using two gfx cards, and the mobo is ASUS p5n-e sli. I have an Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTS gfx card.
    Any other info you need let me know, thanks in advance.
    Oh and I believe it's in PCI. Not PCI-E.

    @Re: X-Fi Xtreme Audio - Volume goes low, static, then comes backu Hi
    Did anyone solve this - I have started getting exactly the same problem today. There is a fairly loud pop and then the sound that normally should be coming form the machine (game or music) is very quiet and distorted. After a short while (a few minutes), it pops again and starts working again. I built this machine a few months ago and this is the first time that I have had this issue. The specs are as follows:
    XFX ATI Radeon HD 5870
    Asus P6X58D Premium Intel X58 Motherboard,
    Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping 2.66Ghz (Nehalem)
    Corsair XMS3 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-2800C9 (600MHz) Tri-Channel
    Hitachi Deskstar 7K2000 2TB HD
    Intel X25-M Mainstream 80GB SSHD
    X-Fi Fatalty FPS
    The X-Fi card is from my old machine and it worked perfectly in that one.
    Many thanks,
    Dave

    Hello there, queen168.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some good steps for troubleshooting your particular issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Particularly:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

    This should solve the problem

    It will not erase any of your personal data, just reset the settings.
    Hope this helps.

  • When instant streaming Netflix on my Macbook Pro, the sound is very very low even when sound controls are set at highest level.

    When instant streaming Netflix on my Macbook Pro, the sound is very very low even when sound controls are set at highest level.  I do not have this problem when listening to TV or watching movies streamed from DishNetwork.  I contacted Netflix and they had me install a newer version of their software Silverlight... this did nothing to resolve the issue.  They were not familiar with the issue.

    Well if your on 10.6.2, you need to software update to 10.6.8
    Perhaps you need to adjust the Silverlight (Microsoft DRM video plug-in) sound level itself too
    Run a check here to see if your current on your Silverlight (works for all browsers)
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    Use another browser like Firefox and see if it continues.
    Try another video file. They all have their own sound levels too.

  • Laptop Audio volume very low

    Hi Experts,
    I bought my Inspiron laptop in January and was hoping for good sound quality based on the advertised Waves MaxxAudio. However I find the laptop volume is very low and end up holding the speakers close to my ears when doing a skype call.
    Is this an issue I need to take up with warranty support or are the speaker volumes expected to be this low?

    Hello. Some of the models do have adequate volume and some have low volume, but it is a subjective thing and I don't know if anyone can say that your volume is normal or not without hearing it. Even then they would need to compare it with others of the same model. If you post your model name then maybe someone with that model will express an opinion.
    If the volume is low only in Skype but okay when playing an audio file from the hard drive, then probably a Skype setting. Right click on the volume icon on the taskbar and click on "Open volume mixer" to see individual volume sliders for each device.
    Also you could test by switching from the vendor's audio driver (varies by model but probably Realtek) to the Windows native audio driver. If the volume seems too low (when playing audio files) with both drivers then there could be a hardware problem.
    1. Open the Device Manager (type devmgmt.msc in the Windows search box).
    2. Expand the "Sound, video & game controllers" and right click on "Realtek High Definition Audio".
    3. Select to "Update Driver Software".
    4. Click on "Browse my computer for driver software".
    5. Click "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer".
    6. Put a check in the box "Show compatible hardware" if not already checked.
    7. In the list of devices, click "High Definition Audio" (the native driver).
    8. Click "Next".
    9. On the Update Driver Warning box, click "Yes" (install the driver).
    10. Restart the laptop if prompted. If not prompted, then no need to restart.
    [To get back to the Realtek driver,  do it again but reverse the names in steps 1 and 6.]
    Note that the above instructions are for models with a Realtek audio driver. If yours uses IDT or Conexant, look for those names in the Device Manager.

  • Hp omen audio volume so low after windows 10 upgrade

    i upgraded to windows 10 and i find that the audio volume level is really low compared to how it was on window 8.1 i checked that realtek high definition audio driver is properly installed the volume now even when i max it out is really low  its so hard to watch even youtube

    It does appear the drivers were not included in the Windows 10 operating system and are not available for download on the driver page. They may be added in the future but for now we can only try using Windows Updates to install. If you go to Start > Settings > Update and Security > Make sure you're on the Windows update tab and select the Advanced settings button. Make sure the box to install optional updates is checked, and then check for available updates. Install any available updates and restart your PC.  After this go into Device Manager and right click the WWAN adapter. Select Update driver software and let it search automatically. If it does not find the driver automatically try it again but select the option to specify a driver. You will get to a page that asks to select a vendor and model. Click the Windows update button to refresh the list of available drivers and look for your WWAN adapter.  If you do not know which WWAN adapter is in your model (it should show the name but may show Unknown Device or Network adapter) right click on it, go to Properties and select the Details tab. Change the drop down to Hardware Ids and give me the first ID in the list. Thanks.
