No audio on Videos on Compaq CQ58
Good morning,
I have purchased a Compaq CQ58 notebook and the audio does not always work.
The very first time i encountered this issue i was watching a video through the internet and everything was fine. I then went to another site to watch something else and there was no audio whatsoever
I then went back to the site i was on originally, and watched the same video i had watched some 5 minutes earlier, and again there was no sound.
I came here to the forums to seek help and when i played the video that guides you to finding your product key the sound worked immediately and continued to work for the rest of the day.
I've used sites since then and had no audio issues.
I turn my notebook on today and try to watch videos and again there is no sound.
I have run the troubleshooting guide and it says there is nothing wrong with my devices. I have gone into control panel and there are no yellow icons suggesting there is an issue.
Can someone please advise why my notebook is picking and choosing when it wants to play audio through my speakers please?
The model is Compaq CQ58-331SA

hello i have a compaq cq58 241sa and my audio suddenly stopped working so i went into sound options to see that it said my speakers where unplugged and that some random black box was there but no sound will play so i went to the driver page and downloaded my driver which when i installed it, it gave me the error audio driver -0001 so i went on a search for the realtek drivers and a few would give me the bsod which i sorted out and finally came to a driver that would work so i installed it and all was fine untill i rebooted the unplugged error was back now every time i reboot my computer i have to reinstall the driver, also the mic sauys unplugged
thanks in advanced
ps i dont want to restore my os as i know its only a driver issueHello @danny1313 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the audio has stopped working on your notebook.
If the issue is recent the best thing to do would be to restore the notebook to before the issue started. This doesnt remove your files but will remove any recently installed software or Windows update after the chosen restore point: System Restore (Windows 8)
If that doesn't work please try using the HP Recovery Manager to restore the original drivers for the sound card. You can see how to do this here: Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8)
If none of that works try installing the following drivers: Realtek High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver
Let me know if any of those work.

I have a Compaq CQ58, with Windows 8.1 installed.
Product number: D1L62EA#UUW.
I am having problems with the sound disappearing.
It started a few days ago and after looking at some of the forum suggestions I managed by good luck to get the sound back, though I am not sure exactly what I did to succeed,but it seems that as soon as I turn the PC off then I have no sound again.
The system is telling me that the speakers are working and I can see when I open the Volume mixer that there is sound on the unit.
Best regards
Iakom52Hi,
Try the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update, select 'View update history' in the left hand pane and then select 'Installed updates' link in the following window.
Locate update KB2962407, right click it and select Uninstall. When done, restart the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update and select 'Check for updates'. You'll see the update you just uninstalled being offered again - right click and select 'Hide Update'.
After this you may or may not need to delete and reload the Audio driver - if you do, the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 8.

How do I use my web cam to record audio and video? I can get the video to work but no sound.
I want to record both audio and video at the same time. The video works fine but not the audio. I do use Skype without any problems using both.
PwmBoat,
This made me smile, because things like this do make me smile... I never make videos on YouCam, but I did this time, so I could test this one out.
You did not say what webcam software you are using...
======================================================================
Video and audio recording works on YouCam V3.5.1.4606
Make sure you have turned on a working microphone in Settings:
YouCam > Right-Side Settings >
Right-Side, Lower-Right, Select a working Microphone from the Drop down list
AND
CHECK "Capture with audio"
OK
You can also buy (for $38 US) YouCam 5.0 from the Cyberlink.com website and it has audio/video and all sorts of other goodies, too. (They have 3.x as well, but why buy what HP already gives you?)
==========================================================================
I hope this helps!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

I was wondering this, because I want to hook up my 2011 MacBook Pro to a external monitor (TV) using an hdmi cable. This would be heplful before I buy a mini displayport to hdmi adapter, and then maybe find out that the mini displayport might not transfer audio, only video.
Yes, min Displayport supports audio and video for the 2011 MBP 13" via HDMI.

I am new to iMovies. When I make a video using the mic and camera in my Macbook Pro, the audio and video are not in synch. Very annoying. How can I fix this?
DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.

Premiere Pro CS6 importing/ audio and video problems
I recently recorded gameplay from my xbox, when i open this recording using windows media player it states that the video is 3 hours 30 minutes long, which is correct, when i then import this into premiere pro, premiere pro changes it to be 5 hours and 44 minutes long, when i then play this back it plays in slow motion and audio and video start to desync, i thought it may just be the source editor playing up so i made a clip and put it into the timeline and it still had the same outcome. The speed/duration are still on 100% so im not sure what to do, anyone have any idea as to what this is, or why it is happening?
What are the attributes of your PVR video...
specifically, is it variable frame rate?

Questions on replacing hard drive in Compaq CQ58 for the experts
I have a Compaq CQ58-bf9WM, product number: C2M29UA#ABA with Window 8 version 6.2.9200 build 9200. Windows 8 is not meeting my needs and I wish to replace it. My plan is to replace the existing hard disk with a new solid state disk. I need to prepare the new disk for using the UEFI start up process and configure the UEFI BIOS to boot from the new disk. I also plan to place the hard disk with Windows 8 into a USB hard disk adapter. This will allow me to use Windows 8 when I need it by using the UEFI Boot Device menu in the UEFI Start Up Tool(or screen).
The replacement solid state disk in order to use the UEFI start up process needs to be set with GUID Partition Table (GPT). What Windows 8 tools (e.g. old fdisk Care available to do this and where one can one find instructions for the process? If the tools are missing on this installation of Windows 8 then how can I get the necessary tools?
According to the HP document, HP Business Notebook Computer EFI Guidelines, the replacement solid state disk there needs to be VFAT32 EFI System Partition (ESP) labeled HP_TOOLS and marked as boot present to support UEFI start up process. Presently, the existing hard drive VFAT32 ESP does not have any label? Do I need the HP_TOOLS label on the new solid state drive?
On the VFAT32 ESP, there needs to be a directory structure of /BOOT/EFI/ with the EFI programs(boot loader, boot manager, shell, etc.). How can one register the new EFI programs (within/BOOT/EFI) to allow them to be started by UEFI Boot from File menu of the UEFI Start Up Tool?
The VFAT32 ESP on the existing hard drive has a directory HP in /EFI. The HP directory contains directories BIOS, BIOSUPDATE, and SystemDiags. I am assuming I will need copy this directory structure and their contents to the new solid state drive VFAT32 partition. Is this correct?
There are also two directories, boot and EFI in the HP directory on the VFAT32. The boot and EFI directories appear to contain Microsoft boot software for Windows 8. I should not need these since Windows 8 will not be on the solid state disk. Is this correct?
Before I make any changes that affect the BIOS, I would like to make a backup copy of the BIOS and its information. How can I do this? I would also like the backup copy to be stored in the ESP BIOSUPDATE directory.
I would like to have the UEFI Shell available on both drives(existing and new). UEFI Shell is part of the overall UEFI specification, so it should be able to be supported by the UEFI BIOS. It needs to have a signature or key file to register it. Does HP have a version of the UEFI shell with a signature file available? If yes, then how does one get a copy of files and installation instructions? If no, then how does one install the Intel provided shellx86.efi program (especially the existing drive)?
Thank you in advance for any help on any these questions.The prices there look pretty decent. As for transferring the cloned image, what software did you use to clone? Most imaging software has a way to restore the image to a new hdd.
I use Macrium. It creates an Image of the hdd to CD/DVD or external USB hdd. It also lets you create a bootable cd to boot from & restore the image to a new hdd.

How to get audio and video in one file
hi...I am "premiere beginner user" and I have a simple question , I think..:)...Every time when I am trying to export media out from my premiere (using media encoder) I get video file and some audio files, but what I need is only ONE file, that contains both (audio and video)..for example , I have edited film in hd quality and I want it to export, I choose h.264 format(make some settings,pal,audio quality...) and when it´s "all done", only "result" I get is one video file and two audio files and they are not together :).....so please help mme anyone..ok and as you can see I am not from english speaking country, so sorry for my english...thanks for help....
There is no indication that something is out-of-sync or the ability to move/slip into sync like in FCE/FCP.
To the best of my knowledge, using match frame and overwriting the video with video+audio (or attaching it as a connected clip if you don't want to overwrite the video, which might have effects applied) is the best way to do this.
You can use the blade tool first in the timeline to get just the section you want to get back into sync. Make cuts so that you have a single clip that needs the audio resynced, select it, and use shift-F to select the original synced clip in the Event Browser. Make sure your play head is at the beginning of this video clip in the timeline. Press option-2, then 'q', and now you have the audio back in your timeline, synced with the video. Delete the old, no-longer-synced audio and you should be set. -

how can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)
It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop. And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

OT: What viewers do you need to use ALL audio and video files?
I had a lot of trouble with audio and video files on my PC. I
now have a
MacBook Pro, which is a big improvement. But I still
frequently
encounter files that I can't use. I try to open them, but
Apple doesn't
know what to do with them. For example, I often encounter
unusable
videos while perusing news websites. I also have some audio
files with
.mva or .mvw extensions that don't work.
So what viwers/players do I need to download in order to be
able to play
every audio/video file that comes my way? iTunes handles .mp3
files, and
I also have QuickTime installed. I just viewed another video
after I
installed a Flash plugin. What else do I need to install?
Thanks.

HOW DO I FIND THE DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS 8 AUDIO AND VIDEO TO UNINSTALL?
I NEED TO INSTALL AND UNINSTALL WINDOWS 8 DRIVERS FOR AUDIO AND VIDEO SO THAT I MAY REINSTALL THEM, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO TO FIND THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.
ALSO, IF I PURCHASE THE PROGRAM FOR UPDATING DRIVERS, WILL THAT PROGRAM ALSO INSTALL THE NEW AUDIO/VIDEO DRIVERS AND UNINSTALL THE FORMER ONES SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH SO MANY STEPS BY MYSELF. I FIND THE DIRECTIONS TO DO THIS FOR MYSELF VERY COMPLICATED.Hi, I would like to assist you on this matter, however I would need some information from you first. I see that you are running windows 8. What is the make and model number of the computer that you are using? The windows 8 that you are using, is it a 32 bit or a 64 bit operating system? Please write back and I will be happy to do research on this issue.
Thank you
