NO AUDIO in wmp because of updated driv
This subject has been brought up many times, but I can never seem to find an answer for it... Had updated an audio driver for my sound card, and every other media player BUT
wmp is operable. Tried services.msc and stopped and started Windows Audio
services, although I heard audio one time only. Rolled back the driver,
heard sound, but my soundblaster card won't function properly without the
updated driver for some reason. How ironic that only wmp player won't produce any audio and being THE standard media player for Windows OS. What can I do to correct this problem?! Tired of rolling back. Like the upgrade very much. Real Player or I-tunes is ok, but why should I have to change because of something like this. Creative conspiracy, perhaps?
Amplifiers. You are not clear when outlining this distressing problem how the speakers themselves work. At my office all the rooms are equipped with plugin speakers, but the Mac's output has inadequate power for them, so I use a set that has its own power unit.
However, from the initial question you posted, can you confirm that normal headphones do not work (or was that one of your -- correct -- test methods to analyse this)? If that is so, there may be other problems. If you have an iPod, try the earbuds for that.

Your firmware can not be updated because the hard drive...SMC 1.3
Hi all !
I have a problem. I'm have a macbook pro Santa Rosa =
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro4,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo

SMC Version (system): 1.27f1
This morning I saw the update for the SMC firmware (1.3).
Before restarting, I have this error :

Your firmware can not be updated because the hard drive partition scheme may not be supported. You must be booted from a GUID partiton or RAID scheme.
When I went into Disk Utility in order to check, here is what I have =

I thought Boot Camp could be involved becauseI know it's the only thing related to the EFI.
I searched on internet, and Ifound nothing. There was a solution in order to reset the partition table, but the tool is no longer available. The link on on the application explains that I have to reformat my macbook pro. I find a bit weird to make this , I can't spend hours for backup / restore just because the SMC update does not work. have you any lead for me ?
Thanks ,
RaziqueHave you tried this:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X. -

Cannot install audio driver because Microsoft bus driver should be installed
hello!
I have a satellite serie A laptop. When i try to install audio drivers it says "Microsoft bus driver should be loaded before installing Realtek High definition audio driver".
I've downloaded KB835221 and kb888111xpsp2 uplods and they should fix the problem, but they didn't. what should i do now?Hello Jan
I presume you want to install your own operating system (probably WXP Pro) only thing you must do is to install all drivers and Toshiba designed stuff in right order. I dont know which notebook model you have exactly but check if you can find installations instructions document.
If you have newer unit A series be sure that WXP contains SP2. -
I am using Windows XP SP 2. My mother board is ASUS F1A55-MLX Plus, Processor: AMD A4-3400 APU with Radeon HD Graphics 2.70 GHz, 2GB DDR3 DIMM 1333 MHz RAM and 500 GB SATA HDD. I am using FF version 8. However, on some websites I cannot see the whole page on my 15" CRT Samsung color monitor. For the fact the slider at the bottom of the web page is not visible to move further left or right.

@zerofire. I have always built my computer and 'am a great fan of AMD. I hate Intel's blue Death Signs. We here in India do not like anything automated on our PC other than antivirus and antimalware along with pre-scheduled running of CCleaner and Defraggler. Once in a while I run CCleaner's Registry Cleaner. Even Windows Security Alerts are turned off. Windows XP and SP2 for PC and Windows 2000 for server are the most used. Not interested in SP3 or Vista as the transcription work I do requires me to just have XP or SP2. May later add on Windows 7 via dual booting. -
Choppy, distorted audio on Portege Z930 after updating from Win7 to Win8 64
Just wanted to share an info with you which cost me some time to work out, regarding the audio playback on a Portege Z930.
When I got my brand new Z930-14L, it was running Win7.
I tested everything like you do when you get a new machine and it all worked fine - including audio playback.
When I updated to Win8-64 from the CDs that came with the computer, still everything seemed to work fine and I had not changed any driver or setup.
However, after a couple of minutes, the audio playback detoriated. It got choppy, distorted, interrupted, stuttering and I was shocked.
Funnily, as soon as I turned my attention to the computer again, playback was OK again - though no screensaver had come up and no power save mode came up in such short time. I knew it was no hardware issue (because it worked under Win7), it was not a driver issue (because the first 5 minutes the sound was immaculate), it was not a ground loop (as many have suggested) because that sounds differently.
Thanks to another forum, I found out that it is actually the combination of Windows Defender, Win8-64 Pro and the audio driver that causes this. If the device is idle for some minutes, Defender thinks its a good idea to use the idle time to scan the SSD drive - causing inteference with the audio playback. Of course, you cannot simply disable or switch off the central antivirus process, which would kinda ruin the whole point. :-)
_So I installed Kaspersky suite on the machine (which automatically disables the Windows Defender) and the issue was gone!_ This is probably the only time that installing an antivirus suite FIXES an issue. :-)
BTW, this is probably not limited to this particular antivirus product, just play a bit with Defender.
Best, Yuppie>So I installed Kaspersky suite on the machine (which automatically disables the Windows Defender) and the issue was gone! This is probably the only time that installing an antivirus suite FIXES an issue.
Thank you very much for sharing this details here in the community.
I guess information could be useful for others who have such similar sound problems. -
Hi,
I know lots of peopl are having the same problem. I have a Zen Micro 5Gb. I have previously updated the firmware to the plays for sure (about 2 years ago) and it's been fine.
The device had had the hard dri've replaced after it failed, and I need to reload the firmware. I have all the files, I've read all the FAQ and support I used last time (I keep everything) and my notes from 2 years ago say it was easy.
However. Not now. I figure WMP caused a lot of problems. Right - got that out the way. Fresh installs of XP SP2 is the way to go.
I have also followed the instructions here:
http://http://forums.creative.com/showthread.php?t=3478
But, I keep going round in circles. Can't update firmware without driver, can't update driver without firmware.
Any driver install I try asks me to connect the device to complete the installation, but, it won't recognise the device because there is no firmware. I try to upload the firmware, and it says there is no device (because there is no driver).
I have tried multiple machines, with SP2 installed and only WMP9 (never had WMP0).
I have tried USB , 2, hubs, front ports back ports, again on multiple machines.
I've even used an XP install on VMware on a MAC (This was the closest to success).
On the Mac, The player was recognised even in its flash problem state and I could actually start the firmware update. However, it failed to complete successfully.
Has anyone actually managed to do a firmware update on n old Zen using a 2008 PC? Please help!If your player had PlaysForSure firmware, you'll need to download a PlaysForSure firmware version. That should resolve your issues since PlaysForSure does not use a Creative driver but rather a nati've Windows driver. But you will need to have WMP0 installed, WMP9 does not support PlaysForSure.

Linking Soundtrack Pro to audio files stored on an external drive
FCP user but using SP for the first time. I have the large sized audio files stored on an external drive which at the moment I can't access from within SP. Just wondering the best way to link to the audio files?
I actually use the 'save as' function that consolidates all the audio clips and move them onto a separate drive. I'm doing a lot of large projects that have more clips than are actually used. Consolidation means I can move and work on another machine. And in the end it's easier to archive this single directory of files. Works for me, especially because sometimes the audio sources are scattered in too many places on my system.

My Mac OSX (version 10.7.5) is coming up with error message when I try to write a disc "The disc can’t be burned because the disc drive is not accessible (error code 0x80020020)." I have tried several discs with the same message - Same also when I tried my external disc writer. Both disc drives will read my discs that have music or photos on it, it just won't write any new discs - any clues?
Hi Klaus1
So, I tried all the suggestions and followed the links - all to no avail.
as you can see, (screenshot below) my iMac is a 21.5 inch late 2009 model which isn't showing in the updates listed above
My system report shows that my Mac has the following:
I reset the PRAM and the SMC - still have the same error message when I try to burn discs. I've used both CD's and DVD's and tried with my external Discwriter too.
Any further suggestions?? -
I cannot get audio from the speakers or audio jack. All drivers updated, realtek, BIOS F37.
There is activity on the windows sound bar (green level moves) when music is played, however no audio is executed.
HP Support Assistant software was installed, but no detection of the problem.
No warranty since March 2011
I will deeply appreciate any support or guidance to solve this problem. Thank you very much in advance.

Product: HP G62 Notebook PC
Serial Number: [Personal Information Removed]
Product Number: WA912U#ABAHi vc329,
Doesn't sound like encouraging news, though it is odd that the sound came back for a short while at least. If you still haven't rebooted the PC since putting it to sleep and loosing the sound, then I would suggested going ahead and rebooting or even doing a full hard reset (power down, remove the AC adapter, remove the battery, hold down the power button for 20 seconds or so, then reconnect the AC power and Battery and boot up) to see if the sound can be recovered again.
If the sound still doesn't work, Check Device Manager to see if the sound driver still looks OK, make sure you are using the latest driver again (it looks like the latest driver is 6.10.6381.0), another option might also be to try the older driver that is still available from the site, or try recovering the original driver shipped on the PC. The steps to do these things are covered in the document listed below, in Step 6 (Restoring the Audio Driver), Step 7 (Updating the Audio Driver), and Step 8 (Checking Device Manager):
No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
If none of that seems to help, I'd recommend testing the hardware using Step 9 in that document.
If the online warranty check sees you as out of warranty, you may still be OK if you have the original proof of purchase (receipt) from wherever you purchased the PC, but you may have to provide it when calling HP for service if the sound can't be fixed. If you are close to the end of warranty I'd recommend calling customer care for your area (I assume you are still in Asia) and validating the warranty with them as soon as possible just to make sure.
Although I am an HP Employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP. -

Is there a fix out there besides waitiing for the updated driver? All my other games work flawlessly though.
i have the same problem before in windows 8 running smoothly but now i upgraded to windows 8.1 pro when i use switchable graphic the screen goes black only sounds please help
