No sound Monitor w2207h with vista

all of a sudden a screen black outlined in gray pops up on monitor reading volume at 0, goes away then pops up again, also auto adjustment screen popping up and going away. All indications on computer reading as sound is working fine but there is no sound. Cables have been checked all securely plugged in. If you use buttons on front of monitor the voulume goes up but as soon as button is released volume reverts right back to zero. Any help or suggestions appreciated, this is driving me crazy.

Dual Monitor Problems with Vista

I have a Lenovo T61 laptop running Vista ultimate 32 bit, SP1. I schlep this back and forth from home to work and put it in docking stations at each location. The docking stations have external monitors attached. At work I have a Viewsonic VX2035wm 20" Wide screen, (16:10) monitor with optimum resolution of 1680x1050. At home I have a Viewsonic VA912b 19" standard aspect ratio monitor with a suggested resolution of 1280x1024.
I typically run in dual monitor mode using my laptop display and the external monitor and extend the display across both monitors. Sometimes I run with the laptop display as the primary monitor, sometimes the external is the primary.
When I take my system from one location to another, generally upon boot or resume it recognizes the different monitor configurations and adjusts the display properties accordingly. However, about once a week I have a problem. For example, I shutdown at home, came into work and attempted to boot the system. Upon boot my external monitor displayed a frequency out of range error and did not display anything else. I suspect that the external port was configured to a setting that was not supported by the monitor. It appears that this was the primary display because my laptop only showed the background and the desktop did not display. Since nothing was displayed, I couldn't click the start menu, any icons, etc. I tried to adjust the monitor configuration by right clicking the laptop screen and selecting personalize, but the personalization dialog would not show up and I suspect that it went to the blanked out external monitor.
Please advise on how I can handle this situation. Is there any way to move the display from the external to the notebook when this happens? I noticed that Viewsonic has Vista drivers listed on their web site. Would it help to download and install these? Is there anything else you can suggest?

The main point of posting this topic was to point out the appalling service offered by Adobe but, of course resolving this issue would be nice also.
So here goes;
Dual monitor issue (Applies to CS4 applications; Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign etc. but not Flash or Dreamweaver or any other manufacturers software).
I have 2 monitors installed with Windows Vista 64bit, using Nvidia Quadro FX 1700:
-1280 x 1024 (primary display on the left) &
-1440 x 900 (on the right)
With a CS4 application maximised in the larger monitor, all the drop down menus display fine, if the chosen drop-down menu is taller than the height of the monitor (fonts, for instance), an arrow appears at the bottom of the menu so that I can scroll down the rest of the menu. If I then reduce the size of the CS4 application window, move it to the smaller monitor and maximised it again, the drop-down menu (which displayed and functioned fine in the primary monitor) is cropped off so I can't access the rest of the menu.
This might seem a minor irritation, but for batch-processing of merged files (the main purpose for having 2 monitors) CS4 makes the 2nd monitor redundant.
Another, less irritating issue (again, only with the applications named above) is that the window when maximised in the secondary monitor 'hangs over' into the primary monitor.

Toshiba Virual Sound not compatible with Vista

I got a toshiba sound preinstalled in my equium A110-276.. you know, that produce the HD audio output and SRS surround sound.. when i installed vista it doesnt work anymore.. so the sound is now just a normal sound not as good as the toshiba virtual sound.. i wonder if i can get it back.. like an update, or download a software..

Hi
Im not surprised!! This virtual sound utility works only with XP!
Some guys have already posted some statements about Vista and the Toshiba tools & utilities in your first posting.
At this time the Toshiba Vista tools and utilities are not available for download.
I have only found some drivers on the Toshiba Canada site.

USB Port Replicator 2nd monitor doesn't work on restart with Vista

Greetings wise wizards of Lenovo:
I'm helping a friend with the USB Port Replicator, who is running Windows Vista Home Premium on her Acer laptop. She has all of the necessary hardware requirements, and I've installed the Lenovo USB Port Replicator drivers with once with Vista (automatically installing the drivers), once with the CD, and finally from the Lenovo website. The problem is that the port replicator works fine upon installation, but as soon as Vista is restarted, not only does a second monitor not appear automatically, it doesn't appear at all.
Connecting the second monitor to the laptop VGA port works fine, and I can extend the desktop across both the laptop and the second monitor... it is only a problem on restart with the port replicator. I've uninstalled and resintalled three times now, once with letting Vista provide the drivers automatically, once with the CD, and once with the website download.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance,
Zovoth

Mines not working on XP. Works fine until I re-boot then I have a hard time getting it to work. I've tried unplugging the ac adapter, usb, tried switching my monitors and still nothing. Both monitors are functioning properly. The icon for the repilicator does not show up down the clock. It's in my program files with the only option to uninstall.
Comon Lenovo, there hasn't been an answer to this question since 2008???

Sound problems with vista 32 bit on xfi xtremegamer

hi im havin sound issues with my sound blaster xfi fatality xtremegamer on vista 32 bit. the sound will sound like a skippin cd or sound like it is stuterin for a few seconds than it will play fine than do it again later on. i was wounderin if its a driver issue with vista or my sound card has broke? i had it runnin on xp and had no problems. can anyone help me please as my card is only abot 8 months old so if it could be faltiy i am still covered by warrinty.

I don't know if it's the driver that's causing a problem or if it's one of your components that's causing a problem. All I know is that the X-Fi is working great on my system, both in XP Pro and Vista Business. I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think I installed the driver first and then the software from the leaked Vista Suite that I downloaded from a link in a post on this forum. Never had a problem with any of the previous drivers either, but on the other hand this system was built in november/december last year, so the hardware was fairly new at the time.

Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum with Vista 64

0Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum with Vista 64Y Hi
I'm considering buying a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum (with front panel) off ebay, but first I'd like to know if certain features will be compatible with my system. I'm running Vista Home Basic 64bit (hardware is an Asus P5Q-E, Q6600, 2GB of RAM, ATI Radeon HD4850, etc). I'll be using this card for my PC's 5. surround sound system (using the stereo outputs), and more importantly, recording some music. I want to achieve this by using the optical S/PDIF port, as my bass guitar effects board has an S/PDIF output and I've got an S/PDIF cable. I'd also like to use the Line In and Mic inputs. The driver before the latest one for this card said that there was no S/PDIF passthrough for Vista. Has the latest driver got everything I need fixed, so I can just plug it in, install the drivers and then be happily recording through these three inputs?
Thanks for the help?

I am brand new to this message system but I am so desperate for help I thought I would try it. After reading lots of comments I find that my problem may be more the rule than the exception. I have an Audigy @ Platinum card and all I ever get from it is crackling and popping. I have been around and around with Creative support but nothing they tell me results in a fix. I am so disgusted at this point that I am ready to just trash the whole thing. I have gone through the BIOS and checked so many settings its a shame. Still crackling and popping. I NEED SPECIFIC ANSWERS FROM SOMEBODY...not just the generic flip the wingle wangle to port xyz and move this to that. here has got to be an answer to this maddening problem. The other thing is that now I can't get my MIDI keyboard to play back. I must have turned something off in the set up process but now I have no idea what to do.
If anyone has any solid answers for me PLEASE come forward with them before I kill someone!

HP Pavilion a6000 desktop with Vista black screen - need help please!

I have an HP Pavilion a6000 desktop with Vista. Yesterday it was working fine and today we have the black screen that reads:
Award BootBlock BIOS v1.0

I am not a techie, but looked at online forums and have tried f10 at startup with no change to the screen other than it stops after the first four lines and does not try the floppy drive. I also pulled out the round battery, waited and then reintstalled. Same problem.
Also, computer emits a single, repeating beep after startup.
HELP!

I saw your post and wanted to comment. I'm not an expert on these types of situations but did some digging around and found the following at Tips4PC.com.... read below
"There are two types of computer black screens that can appear in Windows. One where the computer will not boot up but you have a beep sequence sounding to let you know what the problem could be, and the other has nothing at all. No beeps, no cursor, no logo screen, and no choice to boot to safe mode or access the bios.
If your computer will not boot up and you get a beep sequence, I am not saying it is good news, however it is a step in the right direction towards solving this problem. This is a message from your computer that can be understood by looking up your bios (the brand) beep code. For example you may have an Award Bios, Ami Bios, Phoenix BIOS, Compaq, Dell, or Acer Bios. This list goes on and on. You can search for Bios beep codes in Google. Here is an example of results in Google search"
Link
Also I went into the Troubleshooting Guide for the A6000 and found the following information. You need to use F11 for recovery. See below
Starting System Recovery from system startup
1
Turn off the computer. If necessary, press and hold the On button until the computer
turns off.
2
Remove the HP Personal Media Drive if your computer includes one. Disconnect all
peripheral devices from the computer except the monitor, the keyboard, and the
mouse.
3
Press the On button to turn on the computer.
4
During the startup, do the following to enter the Recovery Manager program:
When the blue screen with the HP Invent logo appears, press the F11 key on the
keyboard. (You have only a few seconds to press the F11 key before the normal
startup process continues.)
5
The computer starts the Recovery Manager program; wait for the onscreen instructions
to display, and then follow those instructions.
6
Complete the computer startup, finish the registration process, and wait until you see
the desktop. Then, turn off the computer, reconnect all peripheral devices, and turn on
the computer.

Help needed with Vista 64 Ultimate

"Help needed with Vista 64 UltimateI I need some help in getting XFI Dolby digital to work
Okay so i went out and I bought a yamaha 630BL reciever, a digital coaxial s/pdif, and a 3.5mm phono plug to fit perfectly to my XFI Extreme Music

once I set this to enabled Dolby and DTS went acti've.
I also have a question on 5. and Vista 64
-When I game I normally use headphones in game mode or 2. with my headphones, the reason for this is if I set it on 5. I get sounds coming out of all of the wrong channels.
Now when I watch movies or listen to music I switch to 5. sound in entertainment mode, but to make this work properly I have to open CMSS-3D. I then change it from xpand to stereo and put the slider at even center for 50%. If I use the default xpand mode the audio is way off coming out of all of the wrong channels.
How do I make 5. render properly on vista

We ended up getting iTunes cleanly uninstalled and were able to re-install without issue. All is now mostly well.
Peace...

My apologies about not explaining further about disabling SPDIF passthrough. See the steps below to enable DDL encoding.
***Before proceeding please make sure that you've purchased, installed and activated the DDL pack***
. Open Creative Audio Console, go to the Decoder tab to disable driver level encoding and enable SPDIF passthrough (this is done by selecting SPDIF passthrough or any similar option that enable the use of an external decoder) instead of using the built-in decoders.
2. Open up your playback devices window (right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select playback devices) and set analog speakers (not SPDIF) as your default device. This is VERY IMPORTANT step, or else you get the "the device is busy" error when enbaling DDL encoding.
3. In the Audio Console, select the Encoder tab and enable DLL encoding.
Note:
When DDL encoding is enabled, it makes exclusi've use of your SPDIF connection so, no passthrough is possible. The default output format when using DDL encoding is 48KHz/6 bits. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) when DLL encoding is enabled, then please change their output device to analog speakers instead of SPDIF.
To use back SPDIF passthrough (when playing back media with a pre-encoded audio source), open up Audio Console and disable DDL encoding and in the Playback Devices window change the default device to SPDIF. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) then please change their output device back to SPDIF. You may also wish to change back your output format to 92KHz/24 bits (right click on SPDIF and select properties -> Advanced tab).

Creative MP3 Players Zen V Plus with vista 64 bits

Hi... I really need help... I just bougth a new computer with vista home edition 64 bits. But my mp3 does not work with vista. I cannot use the Creative Media Explorer because the program is not associated with any other program.
Does anyone knows how I can install my mp3 correctly... without problems...
I send a message to the technical services but anything to do... I do not understand what they say...
If you can answer me in french... il will be more easy for me...
Thanks to everyone and happy new year 200.

This sounds similar to another thread I read here. I think the answer is to uninstall WMP (rollback to WMP0) and then reinstall WMP. I think there may have been something else you need to do as well.
I'll see if I can find the thread for you.

TP T60 with VISTA and dock doesn't work with DVI

Hi, at the first excuse my English.
I am beginner ]:->
I have Lenovo T60 with vista. I have advance dock from lenovo. DVI on dock doesn't work correctly. External display is distort, noisy.
After start of Vista is all right. But when I use blank white page monitor switch off and on in a circle. Monitor is in good order. Advence is in good order. (I change it 3 times).
Thank you for help or inspiration how to find a solution.

ok, i think i understand you now. you have an advance dock with a third-party PCI graphics card and can't get it to work under vista. my best recommendation is to try different drivers. i am not 100% positive but your PCI card might have to have the same GPU as your T61 to be compatible. perhaps someone else with more experience on this can help.

External Monitor blurry with MacBook Pro

Good day, I have searched the forums but have not found a solution to my problem...
I recently purchased a Dell 2005FWP External Monitor and plugged it in (DVI to VGA) to my MacBook Pro. It automatically adjusted to a 800x600 resolution which of course is not ideal. The menu gives a long list of display resolutions but most of them are "not available" when I click on them. I have tried switching the docks and the monitors to the opposite sides on "Arrangement" of displays but I still don't get a different menu. I can't seem to find the menu of resolutions for the MacBook Pro either.
Please let me know what I am doing wrong...Sorry, I know I am clueless!!
Thank you!

I have a ViewSonic VX2035wm display connected to my MacBook Pro - the image on the external monitor shows ghosting and double images like we used to see on old tube TVs.
Here is a post from MacFixIt.com that details my problem.
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20081020231611468
Late-2008 MacBooks: Image problems on external displays with mini-DisplayPort converters
The new MacBooks and MacBook Pros come with a Mini-DisplayPort adaptor for external video, and Apple supplies various adaptors (DP to DVI, and DP to VGA) to accommodate current monitors. Some users are having difficulties with their adaptors when connected to certain monitors.
Apple Discussions poster Ocell writes:
"I have the exact same problem with my Viewsonic VG2030wm 20" LCD. I've ruled out bad DVI cables. The Macbook Pro works with my 12" Cintiq's display, and the Viewsonic works with my Intel iMac, so the video out/mini displayport adaptor/dvi cable/viewsonic display are all operational. It's just the specific combination of the Macbook Pro and Viewsonic that doesn't work."
This problem has been found to frequently occur with DVI adaptors attached to their computers, however it has also happened with users connecting to the VGA adaptors. In these cases, unlike the DVI situation where no signal gets through, users have noticed the screen blinking or shutting off at random times. While drivers may definitely be suspect, the problem appears to be hardware-related since users have experienced the issue both in Mac OS X as well as in Windows via Boot Camp.
The DisplayPort connections used on the new MacBooks have slight differences in their protocols than other connection types, which allows for expanded functions in smaller connectors, but also can run users into difficulties, especially when older connetion types are used. While there could be software involvement in this problem, it sounds like there's most likely a firmware-related problem that hopefully can be patched by Apple, or at least be accommodated for in a driver update.
Things to Try
Reset the monitor to defaults If there is a method for fully resetting the monitor, try doing that first. Most have a menu option to reset to factory defaults, but in addition there may be a way to fully reset the device such as unplugging it for an extended period of time. This information may be available on the manufacturer's website, or users can just try unplugging the device for an extended period such as 20-30 minutes.
Toggle various monitor setups In the "Displays" system preferences, toggle desktop mirroring on and off to see if the monitor is not just extending the desktop to the second monitor. Especially if users have black wallpaper on their desktops, secondary monitors that are just serving as extended desktops may appear to be off when connected. Alternatively users can try dragging documents off the sides of their main monitor to see if they go over to the second monitor.
Reset the computer Users might try resetting the computer's PRAM (which does contain some graphics parameters) by holding the options, command, P, and R keys down at bootup until the computer resets and makes the boot chimes again. Release the keys and allow the computer to boot normally. Additionally, users might try resetting the computer's system management controller. Here is an Apple Support article on how to do that.
Use a different monitor Unfortunately, with hardware problems such as this users will not be able to do much, so if another monitor is available that works then users should switch to that.
Try another adaptor Many monitors support both VGA and DVI inputs, and there is potential for users to get things working by using another connection type. Additionally, while it may be a long shot, users might also try chaining together various adaptors. For instance, users might try going from displayport to DVI, and then using a DVI to VGA adaptor as the next connection, to see if that somehow sends a proper signal to the monitor.

Connection problems with Vista

I have problem using my Nokia 5320 as modem with Vista (with TIM as mobile provider).
The connection, very often, is lost. Even if the symbol "3.5G" is still on the phone, Vista looses
the internet connection.
Someone says that is a Vista DHCP problem for mobile connection.
Could you, please, help suggesting some solutions?
Thanks and regards

Hi All,
I have checked again and the IP remains set when the internet is lost. (USB connection, no globe icon on the network monitor status) However the system handles the connection in strange way with DHCP for sure. I do not really familiar with it, so it could be normal as well.
I realized the communication loss is related to the baud rate change (increase) of the USB modem under the internet connection period (depends on the throughput of the actual 3G, 3.5G connections). I tried to set various details, parameters under modem settings but without any real success. It looks like the OS cannot really handle the HSDPA modem in the phone. Does not really know the exact working parameters of it.
Maybe I am wrong, I only guessing and trying to solve the issue, because it should work smoothly as works under Linux.
Any idea from an expert?

Volume button not working with Vista Business

Anybody knows what Toshiba Software should i install to be able to use the volume button in Vista Business? I have a Qosmio G20-102. Thank you.

Hi
Are you not able change the sound volume level in Vista???
The problem is that only some single Vista drivers were published for Qosmio G20 and not all functions can be used.
But dont give up Andrej!!! There is a hope!!! Thanks to the all forum users who post proposals for solutions!!!
I found this very long but interesting and useful posting about Vista installation on Qosmio G20.
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=20494
The user FranciscoJr is a Vista+Qosnio G20 guru ;)
One hint; some of the items of Toshiba Value added package for the G30 can be installed on G20.
Install only the checked items. In other way you will have conflicts with windows mobility center.
Good luck
