My laptop windows vista home, hp dv6, inbuilt speaker no sound though all functions show as working

the inbuilt speaker of my laptop windows vista home hp dv6 no sound, though all functions working. 

Hi,
please check if the external speakers/headphone are working fine? if yes, i suspect the internal speakers or the drivers.
if external also does not work, follow steps here.

also, did you get the Vista pre-installed from HP ? i do not think dv6-3k or dv6-6k were shipped with Vista.
hope it helps

  • Satellite A305 running windows vista home premium...Cant get sound out of headphones anymore

    for the last 2 months i lost sound in my headphone connection. even when i insert the jack in u can still hear it from the outside.

    Have you checked the HP Website and Microsoft Support websites to see if they have any solutions to your problem? Since there could be multiple things causing this, I would check at the places I mentioned first and see if their knowledge base contains an answer.

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to install SAP Netweaver AS trail version downloaded from sdn in my laptop. Laptop(Windows vista home premium OS) is in very good configurtation but unfortunately i have not succeeded with that.
    Can some one guide me like step by step procedure for installing this 7.0 trail version and will Vista really supports this installtion?
    I guess at 16 step it has thrown error and proceeded further. What actually i needed an help is .....
    How can i install other tools? Is it require to install max db and other tools while going to the respective folders and hav to run (OR) is it enough if I start installing with the SAPINST file alone while is in the master folder?

  • WAV Files won't play on Windows Vista Home Premium

    We have a HP Desktop PC running Windows Vista Home Premium.  Just recently, certian sound files quit playing.  We also noticed that the system sounds quit working as well.  After looking into it more, I figured out that the drivers are all up to date, that iTunes plays music just fine, and that the internal error beeper in the tower replaced the error.wav when an error window pops up.   I have run defragment, check disk, and other system scanners.  None of these seemed to help.  Does anyone know what the problem may be?

  • I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

    I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

    It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
    When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit - Not syncing media

    I'm migrating myself from an HP laptop that will sync my Centro contact/addresses/media etc.  The HP runs XP Pro.  I'm moving to a Sony which runs  Windows Vista Home.  And I am able to sync most everything but the media.  None of my pictures/video or any media will transfer from my phone to my laptop.  I've read about currupt media and since it transfers to my HP, I'm thinking I'm good.  I currently have my /media/ to overwrite from my phone to my pc.  I'm wondering what I am missing.

    Palm does not support 64-bit Vista for cabled Hotsyncs.
    There is a huge Vista64 bit thread at the top of this section explaining your options - BlueTooth Hotsync is about the only way you can procede with a Centro.

  • Downgrade From Windows Vista Home to Windows XP Pro Dutch on Satellite P200-15N

    Not knowing where I really should put this .. I put it in this forum part too :)
    So :
    Hello,
    I bought a new laptop with Vista Home and two Partitions... I would like to install on the Second partition "Windows XP pro" (with official key & SP2 included) !! But when I run the XP Cd I get an error that the HD is not recognized ... So I searched on the forum here to see if there's a possibility to passby it..
    So What I did :
    1) I download the "Intel Storage Drivers" from ->
    http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OS FullName=Windows*+XP+Professional&lang=eng&strOSs= 44&submit=Go%21
    2) Than I used the Floppy Maker, to make a floppy with the needed drivers (also on the above site)
    3) I downloaded a freeware copy of "Nlite"
    4) I also downloaded extra drivers from the "Toshiba" Website itself (Lan, Storage, ...)
    5) I Made a map "Xp Pro P200-15N" and put all the drivers into it .. Including the Exe I downloaded from the above link Named "iata76_cd.exe"..
    6) I made a new bootable Win XP CD with "Nlite" & added all the drivers I've downloaded and followed the given procedure by "Nlite". It made a new bootable CD (with all drivers and .exe's and .inf's, etc...)
    7) Then I boot my laptop with the CD, but it still give an error on the sata-drives .. (that It can't be found) ..
    So my question is .. What am i doing wrong and what other Drivers should I download to make it work ?? I've got an external USB-Floppy Drive.. If additional Drivers should be added ... So I hope there Is someone Ho can help it..
    I install XP for business reasons .. Stuff that the Vista Home can't handle ...
    Hope I got a respons soon .. Cz it's like really URGENT..
    thx in advance and excuse me if there are errors in my writing (I still Am From Belgium )
    *** UPDATE ***
    The above method didn't work for me .. So took my USB-Floppy drive and put the drivers on it (hit "F6" on the startup, added the drivers found on the above link, he installed it)...
    Then I was able too choose a partition ...
    So far everything ok ... It asked me if wanted to format or not .. I said ok ..
    Then When he wanted to start copying, I got :
    Insert the CD-rom or Floppy with the name
    Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver
    In station A:
    * Press ENTER when Ready ...
    And know I don't know what I have to do .. Cz hitting enter doesn't do thing :s
    So what Am I doing wrong it's getting really ANNOYING and frustrating ... I did everything they said in the link, did the method with f6, but still now reaction :s .. Anyone ???
    Kindly Regards,
    Frederic

    Hi,
    Knowing I went trough a lot of trouble installing my Windows XP on my P200, i'll show you how I did it :) (Cz you need the SATA drivers to have a good install)
    1) First of all you need a legal copy of your "Windows XP" OS
    2) Go to -> http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OS FullName=Windows*+XP+Professional&lang=eng&strOSs= 44&submit=Go%21 and download the drivers.
    3) Download "nlite" and run the programm
    4) Nlite will ask you to insert a working copy of "Windows XP", there after it'll ask you a folder where the new Updated XP should be installed (create one like "My P200 Win XP"..), then add only the driver that you need for you SATA drive and burn the new XP
    5) Normally after that, you'll be able choosing a partition and install Windows XP together with "Vista"..
    6) Install all the needed drivers on XP (don't worry if you can't choose your old VISTA)
    7) After you installed, if you would like a "DUAL Boot" with Vista you have to install VistaBootPRO to install a correct Bootloader
    8) After that go on VISTA and install "EASYbcd", you'll have to assign XP the correct Drive letter (you can change the name from "older version" to "windows XP".
    9) Normally you'll be able booting XP and VISTA
    But now, i'm still searching how to make my sound work ..
    Sorry for my bad english :p I'm dutch-speaking
    Hope this little tutorial will help some people who are having the same problems as I did

  • Can't use iTunes with Windows Vista Home Premium

    I have deleted and reinstalled so many times, so i tried the compatibility settings and set it to work for Windows XP(Service Pack 2) with 256 colours. It works, but it messes up all my colours.
    Help, please.
    (My brother got iTunes working on his Windows Vista Home Premium laptop, but it won't work for the desktop computer.)

    i think the file name quicktime.msi is causing the problem
    also forgot to add that installation stops when the status turns to computing space requirements

  • Conflicts between Itunes and Windows Vista Home Premium Edition

    I am looking to purchase a new pc with Windows Vista. What are some possible problems I could have with Itunes?

    I have a new Windows Vista Home premium laptop and am NOT able to use the latest version of iTunes. Hopefully by the time you get your new computer, Apple will have taken the time to fix the garbage program that they are passing off as the latest version of iTunes.

  • Windows 7 upgrade and existing Windows Vista Home Premium license...?

    Hi,
    As per Lenovo's scheme, after applying for Windows 7 64 bit upgrade and upon receiving the installer DVD, do I need to compulsorily install it?
    Does "upgrade" here really mean that the day when the Windows 7 DVD was issued on my name, my existing Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit license will become Invalid or get expired? Or I can continue using my existing installed Windows Vista on my Laptop and install the received copy of Windows 7 as and when I want or even don't install it on my Laptop, if happy using existing Windows Vista only?

  • Windows Vista home premium has reverted to old format - how can i fix this?

    On Tuesday I turned on my laptop to discover that windows vista home premium had reverted to the old style. I'm using a Toshiba laptop (Satellite). The toolbars are now grey and the circular start logo has been replaced with the old rectangle, the dialogue
    boxes are old style too.
    I was prompted to install the service pack 2 which I did smoothly but no change and then today I was prompted to install a further 59 updates which I did and after restarting my laptop still no change.
    I've ran a virus check and no threats were found. I've also deleted some stuff off my laptop and tried to clear it out but no change.
    I'm not very technicallly minded but would really like this fixed. Any suggestions?

    You mean the ones like Windows 2000, where windows and dialog boxes have grey backgrounds and dark blue colour in titlebar?
    If yes, somehow the Windows theme might have been switched to Windows Classic. 
    Right-click an empty area on the Desktop > Personalize. Now select Theme under Personalization. In the
    Theme Settings window, select "Windows Vista" theme from the dropdown. Click OK to apply the theme.

  • Windows Vista Home Prem SP1, iTunes 76, after install, refuses to launch

    I have just resinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium to a 1 yr old Acer 5610 laptop.
    Installed Vista SP1.
    Downloaded and installed latest (v7.6.something) iTunes and let it do the full, all apple media installation. It seemed OK, showed his music, let us reactivate the computer and loginto iTunes store.
    But now, one day later, when he starts computer, it refuses to lauch when iTUnes is clicked. just acts as if nothing was happening.
    So tried to uninstall iTUness and planned to do a reinstall, but now the uninstall has been running 30 minutes and seems to be doing nothing.
    Any thoughts on what is going on here?
    Should I force the uninstall by using a 3rd party Uninstaller tool?
    Should I download iTunes + Quicktime separately as EXE and run the installer again (I have downloaded it (57MB) to my Mac and plan to take it over to the Vista laptop on Monday when i am there again).
    Any other thoughts on why it worked once after the install and now has gone silent?
    thanks!

    Well that's weird that it quit working. Was that the first time the PC had been restarted since a lot of stuff got installed?
    The uninstall shouldn't take more than a min or so.
    Use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Tool:

    Norton or other security software can cause that, there are several other reasons too...
