Hi,
Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar ans select 'Playback Devices'.  Double click the 'Speakers and Headphones' entry and in the following window, click the Enhancements tab.  In the box containing these enhancements, make sure there is only a tick against 'Loudness Equalization' - remove any others.  Next click the Advanced tab and check that '16bit, 48000Hz ( DVD Quality )' is showing - if it isn't choose this selection from the dropdown box.  Click Apply and then click OK on all remaining open windows.
Regards,
DP-K

  • HP Pavilion dv7-4065dx will not boot with continual blinking capslock

    Hi,I have a HP Pavilion dv7-4065dx laptop with Windows 7 64 bit that will not boot up or go to the Bios screen.  When the laptop is turned on, you hear the system fan start, power button light comes on, and the caps lock button starts to continually blink once every three to four seconds.  The HDD activity light is also on but is solid red with no blinking.  No changes have been made to the laptop and it was working perfectly fine just a few hours earlier.  I have attempted the hard reset of the computer and reseating of the memory cards, but the laptop still would not boot.  Any help on figuring out what is wrong with the computer would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks. HP Pavilion dv7-4065dxProduct # WQ861UA#ABA

    hp dv7-4065dx caplock key continous blinking the same problem i also faced but do the below step which solved your problem Bios corruption  power on your laptop block the fan air through cotton or any cloths 10-15 minutes (after heating) then power off and remove the cloths and power on it should be display visit hp driver and download the latest bios & bios tool first install bios tool and select usb to store connect a pendrive for  location after installed then install your latest bios  after sometime it will auto reboot and install the latest bios  we sure while updating bios power adpator must be connect   problem solved........

    Hi,
    If you have MediaSmart software installed on your notebook, the volume OSD ( on-screen display ) is provided by HP MediaSmart SmartMenu - you can download and reinstall this application from the following link.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45140.exe
    When the installation has completed, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load before checking if it now functions correctly.

  • HP Pavilion DV7-6154nr incorrect sound driver?

    Hello, i purchased this laptop a few years ago, and since then I've had to reformat and upgrade my windows install.
    After the first time I did a hard-drive format, i noticed my audio quality was MUCH worse, and my lap was NOT using the intergrated Subwoofer(Beats Audio). I have audio, but its not the same quality.
    I have been advised to install the IDT sound drivers for my model, but I still can't access the beats audio interface after, nor will the subwoofer or enhanced sound work.
    After installing the recommended sound drivers, I go to Control Panel>Sound and attempt to find anything with a hint of the beats audio interface or settings, but all I see is "2-High Definition Audio Device" speakers, and Device manager lists 2 audio interfaces, "AMD High Definition Audio Device" and " High Definition Audio Device"
    I'm pretty sure theres nothing wrong with my speakers, they just stopped using the enhanced sound and subwoofer after my reformat, right after in fact.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7-1444 running Windows Vista 64 bit. I have lost all sound. There's a red x next to the speakeer icon on the bottom right of the screen. I have reloaded drivers, checked Device Manager, tested sounds, HP Support Assistant says I have the latest BIOS installed. I tried a one prong earphone in the two prong headset and got no sound. The mute button and the volume slider don't work either.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45073.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load.  Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
    If you still have no audio, open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services.  Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Start-up Type= Automatic
    Audio Service
    Multimedia Class Scheduler
    Windows Audio
    Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
    If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type',  select Automatic and click Apply to save the change.  Then click the Start button.

  • My brand new hp pavilion dv7 has no sound-seemed as if it did first day

    new pavilion dv7-6c20us had a normal windows default beep 1st day-never tried anything with sound til last nite-tried to watch video for 1st time and no sound-did system restore still no sound. IT person at my job looked it over too and is lost as well. Windows 7 . I haven't used laptop at all except for dragging pictures from external hard drive onto it. I can play a movie with sound on tv with HDMI cable, and in sounds looks like its working but isn't audible. I can hear a click when I hit mute with headphones on.

    If speakers are set as default and still no sound go to Device Manager and uninstall the IDT Audio device,choosing to also delete the driver. Retart the laptop and install the latest IDT driver from your models driver page. You may want to download and save it first in your Download folder.

  • No Sound Speakers on computer not working, but head phones are for HP Pavilion Dv7

    The speakers on my Hp Pavilion DV7-3164cl have stopped working. The only time sound works is when I use headphones or hook up the computer to my tv. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the IDT High Definition Audio Codec (Driver Version 6.1.6345.0) and the ATI High Definition Audio Device (Driver Version 5.0.7000.6) for my computer via device manager. I recently updated the HP Support program for my computer, but even when I tried to do a system restore it didn't fix the problem.  I'm begining to think it could be a faulty wiring issue, but I'm not sure how to fix that. Any ideas?
    My operating system is Windows 7 Home Operating System
    Your time is appreciated.

    Hi,
    As a last try you can perform a recovery on the computer (Reset to factoy settings) by tapping F11 as soon as you turn it ON. Make sure to have your data backed up before doing recovery.
    HP Notebook PCs - Recover Windows 7 Operating System Using HP Recovery c01895783
    If recovery also doesnt help then it has to be speaker issue. To fix that you can call HP Technical Support to get it replaced if you still have a warranty on the notebook.
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

  • I'm not getting any sound when i play a video; HP pavilion dv7 Windows 7

    I'm not getting any audio when I try to play a video, such as youtube; I have an HP pavilion dv7....op sys is Windows 7;  Funny thing is that when my brother signs in under his User ID, he gets audio, but I don't when I'm the user.  I've checked all of the on/off audio mute buttons that I know of.
    what can you suggest?

    Is it just sites like YouTube? Can you play music files-mp3/cd ,hear Windows system sounds,etc?
