NVIDIA MCP79 HD Audio card recognizable but unusable

Hello !
I'm using OSS since a while, but after the update to kernel 4 (i think), no sound except internal buzzer is generated by my laptop.
So, i tried to install and use ALSA + pulse audio (i don't understand exactly what is the goal of PA), and, again, there is no sound.
My audio card seems to be this one, according to this command:
lucas@hugin:~➤ lspci | grep -i audio
00:08.0 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation MCP79 High Definition Audio (rev b1)
But, "aplay -L | grep :CARD" returns nothing, alsamixer show only one unmuted channel named "master".
Pavucontrol found only one output device named "dummy".
Am i missing something ?
Thank you !
Config: laptop ASUS K61IC under Archlinux + i3

  • What if a person no longer has access to the house in which the card itself, but iTunes recognizes my login, shows my balance, won't let me get past the "code" page?

    What if a person no longer has access to the card itself, but iTunes recognizes my login, shows my balance, won't let me get past the "code" page?

    What pops up is the page that tells me I can use my camera to take a photo - since I don't have access to the card, useless.  I am caught going round in this loop - there's that one button, no other option.  Thanks in advance.

    Hello, I have a Mac computer with NVIDIA 750M dedicated graphics card and monitor EIZO but the problem was there when I was working with Windows and Acer monitor. When I open a file from Camera Raw in PS this is smaller than the screen so I double-click with the tool "hand" to fit on the screen, but the picture loses sharpness and becomes blurry. If you magnify the image even only slightly with the tool "zoom" the picture comes back clear. In Camera Raw instead is always sharp. I solve the problem by turning off the graphics card in PS but often use plugin that need the graphics card otherwise the processing time is much longer. I ask for help.
    Thanks.

  • Itunes interacts with my ATI 4550. Plays OK thru HDMI but 'pulses' thru onboard audio card.

    Itunes interacts badly with my ATI Radeon 4550. Plays OK thru HDMI connection but 'pulses' thru onboard audio card. I have disabled the audio amp on the video card but no different. QuickTime player works OK. Can I configure something on Itunes?

    An up-date: I may have found the culprit. This seems to be hardware related after all. In utter frustration I made yet another clean install. Yes, it didn't work. However I finally had a simple idea: to try to run my clips from my LaCie harddrive I use for back-ups. Lo and behold: no hang-ups on even most troubled clips! Copying the same clip to desktop and playing it from Mac, the trouble was there as it had always been. I then proceeded to download latest QT (out today) No change. Same with 10.4.4 upgrade. But LaCie kept on delivering. It seems my harddrive chokes on large videofiles. It still passes hardware test, and it has been erased four times already. I simply don't know how G5's innards work, but this suggests that the harddrive takes the brunt of all things cinematic. How do QT and harddrive interact? Beats me. One thing seems to be for certain now: somewhere along the way information just jams up, resulting in standstills.
    So, if your plagued with the same problem, you should at least check the condition of your harddrive. I still can't be 100% sure, so it's off to local Apple store. We still could be talking about a motherboard problem or whatnot. So, the saga continues but at least now I have some driving instructions.

  • AirPort Extreme Card recognizes networks but won't connect - HELP!

    hello forumites,
    firstly, if this post is similar to one that has already been well-read and widely responded to, i apologize and ask that you respond with the link to said thread.
    my issue pertains to an iBook G4 (circa 2004 i believe) running OS X 10.4.11 with an apple-installed AirPort Extreme card (firmware version 405.1). i have never had any problems with the card previously, but in the last week it has quite suddenly ceased to connect to any wireless network i attempt to log on to (both password protected and non). despite the card's sudden inability to connect, it still is able to recognize all the wireless networks in my location (i know this as the networks are still listed in the AirPort status pull-down menu).
    in an effort to fix the issue i have:
    restarted the card (turned it off and on)
    restarted the computer (many, many times)
    used the network diagnostics program
    used the network setup assistant program
    attempted to connect through the system preferences (network)
    attempted to connect through internet connect
    did a complete erase and install
    still nothing.
    anyone had a similar problem? anyone find a way to fix it?
    thanking you in advance for your brilliance and time,
    brad

    firstly, tesserax, a tremendous thank you for your help. unfortunately, i tried each step you suggested, but the problem continues.
    step 1: i have tried and failed to connect to several different networks in a handful of locations (home, work, friend's house, local coffee shop, etc.).
    step 2: i have disabled my own wireless encryption as well as the wireless encryption at a friends house, however, to do so i had to use their ibook, as my own either didn't list the base station in the AirPort utility (although it did list the base station in the AirPort status pull down), or it asked for a password even though the base station wasn't password protected (maybe this may add some insight into the issue?).
    step 3: i have connected the computer directly to the modem using an ethernet cable and was able to go online - perhaps this means the problem is related solely to the card.
    step 4: i moved the the com.apple.networkConfig.plist file and and the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop and restarted. unfortunately, OS did NOT rebuild the files. instead, i had to go through the network diagnostics to rebuild them manually. while the files were replaced, the problem was not solved.
    step 5: i reset the PRAM, but the problem still exists.
    step 6: i reset the PMU, but the problem still exists.
    i then tried various combinations of your suggestions, including moving the files out of the preferences folder and then reseting the PRAM and the PMU, but still nothing.
    after having attempted every fix i could think of (and that was before posting to this forum) i did a full erase and install of the OS. since that's usually the cure all to whatever ails the computer, it's my assumption that the issue is a physical (hardware) one. that said, if you have any other suggestions i will be more than happy to give them a shot.
    thanks again,
    brad

  • Asrock ION330/Nvidia HDMI - No audio output

    Machine was running archlinux and not been upgraded in over 6mths but HDMI audio worked fine. Decided to do a scratch build since all the changes in that time and have a nice clean system.
    If it helps, this is what I install. Ssed this exact same install process for another Asrock ION330 and Acer Revo3610 (both same hardware) but neither use HDMI at all. Both VGA with either optical or analog audio. Both work with no additional config.

    Get no sound output but also zero errors on any of the following commands. I should add that the receiver does not detect any audio coming in, ie it usually identifies how many channels of audio and type it is receiving.

    FWIW, I even tried changing the HDMI cable, turning the amp on before or after the PC etc. No change.

    Default install, clean boot and I get this error but the info above indicates there is a sound device. Confused!

  • Nvidia Mcp79 Hdmi - Alsa

    Hello to everybody,
    I recently bought an ASROCK ION 330BD in order to build a HTPC. After installing the latest image of x86_64 arch, I tried to configure it in order to playback HD content.
    The PC is connected to the TV [Philips 32PFL9613D] via HDMI.  I tried the ALSA wiki in order to configure the card and installed the following packages:
    - alsa-lib
    - alsa-utils
    - alsa-plugins
    - alsa-oss
    - ladspa
    - swh-plugins
    The modules show that they are loaded properly as:

    As ALSA wiki suggests, I tried:
    % aplay -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
    and I still do not get sound.
    I tried to switch the default device to HDMI via System Settings -> Multimedia in KDE, but KDE is reports that there is a problem and that the sound device is falling back to default.
    I will appreciate any help.
    Thanks

  • What EXACTLY are the 4 NVIDIA High Definition Audio devices on N570GTX - Win 8.1

    Hi guys,
    one of my rigs runs an N570GTX on Win 8.1 64bit.
    In Device Manager > Sound, Video and Game Controllers, there are 4 "NVIDIA High Definition Audio" listed.
    I use 337.88 drivers (NVIDIA Control Panel version 7.7.760.0).
    What is the purpose of EACH of these 4 devices:
    As a side note, my other rig running an N660GTX on Win 7 64bit only shows 1 "NVIDIA High Definition Audio" in Device Manager > Sound, Video and Game Controllers.

    Okay, by examining the devices (enabling, disabling, reading driver data), I can conclusively state that one of the drivers (in my case residing in Location 1) is exclusively tied to the HDMI port on my GPU –  when I disable it, my HDMI device (I have only one; shame, because I can't isolate the devices better) stops being listed in Windows Sound Control Panel; when I disable all other devices except that one, my audio over HDMI works fine – this leads me to believe that the other ones are not really essential codecs required for HDMI audio, but are instead related to the individual audio outputs.
    In summary, assuming the other two devices (residing, for example, in Location 0 and Location 2) are for audio output on DVI ports (usable via DVI->HDMI adapter/cable), there's still one NVIDIA High Definition Audio device (residing in, say, Location 3), which doesn't seem to be in use in relation to some sort of global codec mechanism (since I can disable it without affecting my HDMI port audio output), that is unaccounted for!
    Any idea what other output can the remaining device be linked to, since GTX570 has no S/PDIF pass-through connector on the board itself (to connect it to the motherboard's S/PDIF output)?
    Could the remaining device be there only as a legacy stub for S/PDIF connector which was present on the pre GeForce 400 Series cards, since they share the same NVIDIA drivers with the post-Tesla series?
    But in that case, why does my GTX660 list only one NVIDIA High Definition Audio device in Win 7 64bit?
    Quote from: Nichrome on 02-July-14, 19:33:05
    Apart from the sound you can get through HDMI (which would be 1 or 2 of these in management), it provides your board with some "HD Sound Drivers" which takes another 1 or 2 of these.
    I have quite few of these too even on my old laptop (with Nvidia card): x4 Nvidia High Definition Audio, x1 Cyberlink WebCam, x1 Realtek HD and x1 Bluetooth sound.
    Your specs read that you have a GTX770 running on Win 7 64bit; do you also have four of the Nvidia High Definition Audio devices? Or just one? Thanks!

  • External Usb Audio Card Popping and Cracking sound with Satellite L500

    Greetings,
    My name is Boyan and I am from Bulgaria and about an year ago I've bought a satellite laptop from the l500 series ( i can not state which exactly is the model at the moment because my computer is not currently with me and on my user manual the only thing which is stated is that it is for L500/L505/ L500D / L505D . But by memory I think it was the Satellite L500D-ST5506 which is currently not at my dispossal because I gave it for repair for the same problem which I will state down below)
    The problem with my laptop is that when I plug a Usb Audio card in my laptop I have a cracking sound when live sound is played trough the speakers/headphones from the external card. I've tried numerous audio cards and speakers/headpohnes which work perfectly fine with other computer, including laptops but the same problem keeps on showing up in the headphones/speakers of my laptop when I am using an external audio card to connect them to the laptop.
    The problem is prominent only when the sound signal passes trough an external audio card and it is very annyoing since I use my laptop to create music and i've bought an expenssive audio card and speakers which can not be used with the laptop. I've tried 3 models of audio cards:
    M-Audio Fast Track Pro
    Behringer uca 222
    and a simple external 3d sound usb audio card and the problem still appears.
    At first I thought that the problem should be software and I should install new drivers although windows 7 automaticaly recognizes and intalls the drivers for the devices and I have sound in them (but with cracks and popps) so i tried using the official drivers sold to me with the audio cards but with no luck: The problem was still there. I tried finding new drivers of the audio cards on the official distributors websited and i've downloaded them but the problem was still there. Then i tried to delete every audio driver on my computer and just use the external audio card for sound but this dint help eighter. I've updated my drivers for my build-in audio card as well but again - no luck.
    After that.the frist thing I did when (2 weeks after i bought the laptop) was to contact the store from which i bought my audio card and they stated that the problem may be eighter latency or high voltage from the laptop so they adviced me to try to lower the latency from the settings or to try and see if the problem remains if my laptop is only running on battery. I've tried both things and they didn't help. The audio cards worked without a problem on every other computer I've tried them on except mine. So they said to me that the problem couldnt possibly be from the audio cards .
    What I did next was I gave my laptop to the official distributor of toshiba in my country so they can fix my problem. What they said to me was that the problem is caused from the version of windows which was pre-installed on my laptop and that it wasnt compitable with the audio cards (which was bizzar sounding because I've tried them on the same windows and they've worked, just on other computers). So I got back my laptop and changed my operating sistem from Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 32bit and on all of those versions the problem was there: whenever I activate a Usb Audio Card and audio signal passes trough it I heard cracks and popps. I even tried isntalling Windows XP but the laptop wants spesific SATA drivers for the installation of Windows XP which although i did find - they didnt help me install XP and I didn't want to go in to the BIOS of the computer to try to put a new one and so on because I am not so sure about that and I could lose my warranty so I said to the official repair store for Toshiba in my town to put XP on my computer to fix the problem but they can't because they are not liscened to operate with software which doesn't have a recipt for its purchase ( which i didnt because i bought my windows xp long ago and i've lost the recipt)
    I gave it for repair for the second time telling them that the change of my operating system did not solve my problem and what they did was they changed the whole motherboard on my computer, stating that the build in realtek audio device on my computer is not good enough to support an usb audio card or it maybe broken and they have to change the whole motherboard because the build in card is glued to it, so they did that but my problem wasn't solved. They told me that although I am using and external usb audio card the signal still passes trough my internal one and I have to disable it so i tried disabling it trough the control panel but this did not solve the problem and i do not have an option from BIOS to disable my build-in audio card. Another thing which I thought maybe causing the problem is that the two audio cards aren't working on the same bit rate and Hertz so I set both cards to 16 bit 48000hz DVD Quality (Also tried other options on the 3 cards i have) but...the same thing happend.
    They told me that this is just my luck and that the build in audio card doesn't support this external audio cards and I should had been more careful when choosing my laptop at first.
    I couldn't accept this awnser for several reasons:
    1) This audio cards work on lower version of windows and are supported by much older models of Realtek and much older computers (one of them was bought 2000!!!!! and my laptop is from 2010!!)
    2) The guys who were fixing the problem apperantley didn't go in so deep in to my problem because they didn't know what actually the problem was they just knew that there is a problem with the audio card and the computer interacting with eachother, they didnt know that there is cracking during live play from the external audio card.
    3) I can not accept the fact that Toshiba is manufacturing models with chipset audio cards which can not support a simple external Usb Audio Card. This is totally unacceptable for me and I truly hope this is not the case!
    4)They didn't try my audiocards on an other laptop from the same series stating that they do not have one at their dispossal at the moment so I will go tomorrow to a local store and try the audio cards by my self on the same computer in the store.
    What I did now was I gave back my laptop for repair asking for a statement of the problem in wrtting with all details of the problem so I can go to court or ask for a new laptop but I will be charged with some money because according to them there is no problem in the laptop and the problem is that my external audio cards arent compitable with the build in internal chipset audio card. If I give my laptop for repair and there is no hardware problem I will have to pay some money. I will do this but I am now mad, since this will not solve my problem and I am loosing time and money.
    What I am asking here is, if you can not help me solve my problem and advice me what to do to fix it, please provide me the details of the chipset build in audiocard on my motherboard, so i can investigate if it is compitable with my external audio cards and contact the audio card dealers to ask them for their opinion. Or if you can tell me with what it is compitable with and with what not, it would be great. I personally think that this laptop should have no problems at all with running a simple external usb audio card but I am asking you, if you know something more about that.
    If the problem is from the build in chipset then Toshiba is manufacturing (or at least selling) audiocards which aren't at a normal standart but sadly I cant do nothing about it except complain to Toshiba and never deal whith such productgs anymore. In the other case if this is not true, then my laptop has a problem which is different and I will have to go to court with the repair mans for not fixing my laptop or not giving a new one when I have warranty which will not be Toshiba's fault and It will in a way solve my problem.
    I hope you understand how Important this is for me and I hope I resolve the problem as soon as possible.
    P.S
    I would like to state that I am well aware of the grammar mistakes I have made in the text below and I would like to ask for your apologies as I am not a native English language speaker.

    hi i just like to say i had a similar fault though i would be surprised if it causing yours,but you never know,my fault was my laptop lid, [9 months old] it contains the mic ,and when the lid was in a certain angle crackles could be heard worse when i had my external sound card in, it was a faulty membrane [ lid to body] easily missed by engineer because it was the same angle all the time it happened,good luck, PS you English is very good

I tried finding new drivers of the audio cards on the official distributors websited and i've downloaded them but the problem was still there. Then i tried to delete every audio driver on my computer and just use the external audio card for sound but this dint help eighter. I've updated my drivers for my build-in audio card as well but again - no luck.
    After that.the frist thing I did when (2 weeks after i bought the laptop) was to contact the store from which i bought my audio card and they stated that the problem may be eighter latency or high voltage from the laptop so they adviced me to try to lower the latency from the settings or to try and see if the problem remains if my laptop is only running on battery. I've tried both things and they didn't help. The audio cards worked without a problem on every other computer I've tried them on except mine. So they said to me that the problem couldnt possibly be from the audio cards .
    What I did next was I gave my laptop to the official distributor of toshiba in my country so they can fix my problem. What they said to me was that the problem is caused from the version of windows which was pre-installed on my laptop and that it wasnt compitable with the audio cards (which was bizzar sounding because I've tried them on the same windows and they've worked, just on other computers). So I got back my laptop and changed my operating sistem from Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 32bit and on all of those versions the problem was there: whenever I activate a Usb Audio Card and audio signal passes trough it I heard cracks and popps. I even tried isntalling Windows XP but the laptop wants spesific SATA drivers for the installation of Windows XP which although i did find - they didnt help me install XP and I didn't want to go in to the BIOS of the computer to try to put a new one and so on because I am not so sure about that and I could lose my warranty so I said to the official repair store for Toshiba in my town to put XP on my computer to fix the problem but they can't because they are not liscened to operate with software which doesn't have a recipt for its purchase ( which i didnt because i bought my windows xp long ago and i've lost the recipt)
    I gave it for repair for the second time telling them that the change of my operating system did not solve my problem and what they did was they changed the whole motherboard on my computer, stating that the build in realtek audio device on my computer is not good enough to support an usb audio card or it maybe broken and they have to change the whole motherboard because the build in card is glued to it, so they did that but my problem wasn't solved. They told me that although I am using and external usb audio card the signal still passes trough my internal one and I have to disable it so i tried disabling it trough the control panel but this did not solve the problem and i do not have an option from BIOS to disable my build-in audio card. Another thing which I thought maybe causing the problem is that the two audio cards aren't working on the same bit rate and Hertz so I set both cards to 16 bit 48000hz DVD Quality (Also tried other options on the 3 cards i have) but...the same thing happend.
    They told me that this is just my luck and that the build in audio card doesn't support this external audio cards and I should had been more careful when choosing my laptop at first.
    I couldn't accept this awnser for several reasons:
    1) This audio cards work on lower version of windows and are supported by much older models of Realtek and much older computers (one of them was bought 2000!!!!! and my laptop is from 2010!!)
    2) The guys who were fixing the problem apperantley didn't go in so deep in to my problem because they didn't know what actually the problem was they just knew that there is a problem with the audio card and the computer interacting with eachother, they didnt know that there is cracking during live play from the external audio card.
    3) I can not accept the fact that Toshiba is manufacturing models with chipset audio cards which can not support a simple external Usb Audio Card. This is totally unacceptable for me and I truly hope this is not the case!
    4)They didn't try my audiocards on an other laptop from the same series stating that they do not have one at their dispossal at the moment so I will go tomorrow to a local store and try the audio cards by my self on the same computer in the store.
    What I did now was I gave back my laptop for repair asking for a statement of the problem in wrtting with all details of the problem so I can go to court or ask for a new laptop but I will be charged with some money because according to them there is no problem in the laptop and the problem is that my external audio cards arent compitable with the build in internal chipset audio card. If I give my laptop for repair and there is no hardware problem I will have to pay some money. I will do this but I am now mad, since this will not solve my problem and I am loosing time and money.
    What I am asking here is, if you can not help me solve my problem and advice me what to do to fix it, please provide me the details of the chipset build in audiocard on my motherboard, so i can investigate if it is compitable with my external audio cards and contact the audio card dealers to ask them for their opinion. Or if you can tell me with what it is compitable with and with what not, it would be great. I personally think that this laptop should have no problems at all with running a simple external usb audio card but I am asking you, if you know something more about that.
    If the problem is from the build in chipset then Toshiba is manufacturing (or at least selling) audiocards which aren't at a normal standart but sadly I cant do nothing about it except complain to Toshiba and never deal whith such productgs anymore. In the other case if this is not true, then my laptop has a problem which is different and I will have to go to court with the repair mans for not fixing my laptop or not giving a new one when I have warranty which will not be Toshiba's fault and It will in a way solve my problem.
    I hope you understand how Important this is for me and I hope I resolve the problem as soon as possible.
    P.S
    I would like to state that I am well aware of the grammar mistakes I have made in the text below and I would like to ask for your apologies as I am not a native English language speaker.

    hi i just like to say i had a similar fault though i would be surprised if it causing yours,but you never know,my fault was my laptop lid, [9 months old] it contains the mic ,and when the lid was in a certain angle crackles could be heard worse when i had my external sound card in, it was a faulty membrane [ lid to body] easily missed by engineer because it was the same angle all the time it happened,good luck, PS you English is very good

  • Could not detect Sound Blaster Audio Card on xp sp2 Sys

    I have Audigy Platinum and trying to install to a recently re-installed windows xp sp2 system. On my previous install everything was working fine and now I am looking to install the newest drivers and the error comes up [color="#ff3300">"could not detect Sound Blaster Audio Card on system". The strange thing is windows recognizes the card and will install it's drivers, but when I go to install the latest driver update I get the error. In addition, I also tried to run the install from my original disk.
    I also?un-installed the devices showing? in the windows device manager, then tried and the same error, I even tried it in safe mode. Any ideas?Thanks and Advance,Mikel

    Yes i think the real lesson here is not to buy creative,. i have the same problem with their junky card, so i guess ill just have to take buisness somewhere else. if you all do the same perhaps the threat of them going out of buisness will have them deal with their problems. if not atleast we saved others the headache of learning this lesson.

  • "Could not detect any Soundblaster Audio card" - HE

    Hi all,
    Hoping someone out there can shed some light - I've read about a million posts on various forums suggesting how to solve the problem but nothing seems to work.
    Everything was running just fine until I exchanged a video card. Swapped back from a nVidia Geforce 4 MX 64MB to an Asus V8200 64MB in the AGP slot. All of a sudden - no more soundcard. In Device Manager it tells me that it can see a PCI Card that it doesn't recognise and a Multimedia Audio Controller that it doesn't recognise.
    Am running the following:
    OS: Win2K (fully updated)
    MoBo: SiS 730S (notably only 2 PCI slots and an AGP slot)
    Soundcard: Soundblaster Li've! CT4670
    I've tried swapping the Li've! card between the two PCI slots (including with complete uninstalls in between), have reseated both the Video and Sound cards and reinstalled drivers for the Video card AND MotherBoard.
    I have a vague suspicion that the problem lies in an IRQ conflict, but the system resource tools in Windows suggest that there are no conflicts (even thought the video and sound cards are sharing IRQ ). I haven't been able to adjust the IRQ settings because if I take off the automatic settings in BIOS, Windows refuses to boot. :P
    I've tried running the latest driver software from the Creative website and it just tells me that it couldn't detect any Soundblaster Audio Card. Extracted the zip file and tried to apply the drivers manually - reckons it's not the same. Tried the KX drivers - still doesn't want to talk.
    The sound icon in system tray has vanished - but the system still recognises the gameport, midi controls etc.
    HELP!!! Anyone got any ideas? (save going and buying new equipment?)

    Have you tried running the "CTZAPXX.exe" or "Setup.exe" file in the "Drivers" folder in the unzipped files? It should have no problem installing the drivers, unless you have a defecti've card. You may alos need to install the programs by using the setup file in each program's folder.

  • X-fi Xtreme Audio card Digital I/O in Windows Vi

    Hallo,?Recently I bought an X-fi Xtreme Audio card and installed it in a PC using both Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista. The card has to work connected to a Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5700 external decoder. I installed the card and used it with no problems under windows XP SP2.
    In order to connect the card with the external decoder I had to check an option "Digital Output only" in Entertainment Mode - Speakers and headphones section. Now, on the same computer, I'm trying to use the card with Windows Vista.
    The system recognize the card and I was able to install software and driver for the card (driver version is .4.65 as "Creative System Information" application reported). If I connect an headphone to Line Out connector I can hear music playing.But I cannot select Digital I/O output.
    In Vista, Entertainment Mode hasn't any checkbox to allow "Digital Output only" to work.
    So I don't have any idea on how select Digital I/O output. Anyone can help me?Thank you in advance.

    Hi?I had the same problem, and here is the solution. ) Make sure u download the latest drivers for Vista. 2) After the installation u can goto the Control Panel> Sound Settings?You will see that there is 2devices listed. st is the Speakers configuration2nd there is the SPDIF configuration. Alter first the Speakers configuration to ur needs, enable the Digital out! > make sure u never select a frequency above 48khzAlter the SPDIF settings and test the sample rates that is given on the screen sothat u know what works with the card and not. If there are any problems leave the settings i gave exactly as instructed, and then goto urAudio Console and check there is a headphone settings and disable them. Try again thereafter!?Good Luck!Marvin?IT & Audio Specialist

  • External audio cards not working properly

    First off, i have an HP Dv7-1134us laptop.  AMD 2.0 GHZ dual core processor, 4 gigs of ram, etc etc.  I have 2 external audio cards:
    1.Presonus Firestudio Mobile(firewire)
    2.Line 6 UX1(usb)
    I had an HP desktop before that I used for recording, but that recently broke down so I have been trying to use my laptop.  I bought a Firewire express card for the presonus, and installed everything along with it.  However, while my computer recognizes the device, it will consistently turn off and on...but no audio comes out. 
    The Line 6 ux1 works, but it crackles and pops at a ridiculous rate.  When recording more than 1 track, it clutters up my speakers with nothing but crackling and distortion.
    I have tried an Express Booster for the first issue, have tried disabling my LAN card, have tried disabling IRQ's in the control panel and nothing has changed.  Can ANYONE help me or am I going to have to really jump ship and just get a mac?

    Sorry about the delay in replying....
    The updated ATI drivers that should apply to my machine are at
    http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx
    or the file I was originally pointed to
    http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/integrated_win7-32.aspx#3
    but these won't install here, neither will any other updates from ATI, even older ones.
    I'm waiting for a family member to bring round his Win 7 64-bit machine as I want to compare the Microsoft files referred to in the failure messages on his machine with mine.  I'm trying not to have to re-install Windows.....
    I think the recording tab effect is just a Microsoft programming problem that happens to show up the fault in the ATI usb part of the motherboard chipset drivers, and I think it may appear because the little recording meters that appear are driven by some recording code of Microsoft's. Here using a powered or unpowered usb2 hub cures the problem as it moves the translation between usb 1 and usb 2 away from the faulty code in the machine.
    It's interesting that I've been posting all over the place for many, many months about this and had no response anywhere until about 10 days ago and now there have been 2 responses. It will be really good if you can confirm that a usb 2 hub and/or the ATI update cures the problem.
    I think you may find there are some remaining crackles which can be got rid of by disabling any wifi networking on the machine.

  • Success story: NVIDIA 8600M GT graphics card defect repaired at no cost

    This is the story of Apple servicing my MacBook Pro with the NVIDIA graphics card defect.
    I had the NVIDIA 8600M GT graphics card defect in my 2 year old MacBook Pro. The symptoms were pinkish images, scrambled and chopped images, and finally leading to no video, all within a matter of 3 days. I called AppleCare using the old number I remembered from my 100mhz Mac days: 1-800-SOS-APPLE. I was greeted by a real person within 3 minutes. She explained that my 90-day complimentary phone service had expired some 600 days ago.
    After I mentioned the specific Apple Knowledge base article that described the defect (TS2377), and that it was covered up to three years out of warranty, she transferred me to a MacBook Pro specialist. Sheri ran me through several standard resets and reboots. She then suggested that it be taken into an Apple store for a genius to look at. When I explained that the nearest Apple Store was an hour away, she arranged for a mail-in service.
    After the call had ended, I received a simple email with her phone number so that I could contact her if I needed to. Another automated email contained my repair case number and a link to check the status online. The online status center is very easy to use. It displayed three steps: Sending the empty box, service in progress and return. FedEx tracking numbers were included with working links.
    The next day an empty box arrived, completely with graphical IKEA like packaging instructions and form fitting foam for my MacBook Pro. I knew when the FedEx truck came around, so I had my computer ready by my side. As soon as FedEx showed up, I explained that the empty box was for the computer and Marcos helped me apply the pre-paid return label and taped the box expertly with tape from his truck. I also placed in the box a copy of the Apple Knoweldge base article and pictures I had taken of the issue.
    Apple had included a small stack of super adhesive pre-cut tape square, but Macros was already taping it before I figured out what they were. The return label was also pre-paid with overnight service.
    The next day I logged into the online support status at Apple.com and checked my status. The tracking number showed it had arrived in Houston, and the three steps had been updated to "Repairs completed" and "Return in progress."
    The return FedEx tracking number was displayed later in the evening, and it showed that it was guaranteed to arrive by 10:30AM the next day. Speedy service! Sure enough, the next day I had my computer back in my hands, all data perfect and intact. I was very worried since I was not able to make a back up before sending it in, and Apple does not guarantee data safety. Apple had replaced the logic board, valued at $700 on iFixit (http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Pro-15-Inch-Core-2-Duo-2-2-GHz-Logic -Board/IF185-073).
    The funny thing is, for the past 5 years, I have always cloned my drive or used time machine, but for the past two months I had cleared the backups to make up extra room on my externals. You really never know when disaster will strike!
    Learned:
    - Apple Customer Care is top notch, speedy and their status site is very easy to use
    - FedEx service was very helpful
    - If you have a NVIDIA graphics card, Mac or PC, check if your model is affected. Just today Sony announced that NVIDIA cards with defects will now be covered for 4 years out of warranty. (http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-10307592-64.html)
    - Back up your stuff NOW. Use a flash drive or email files to yourself for a cheap fix.

    ha
    got the same problem with my mbp (dec 2007)
    also no video within 5 hours .... also no external video.
    lucky i had screen sharing on so i could check the system profiler via an other mac.
    It couldn't find the 6800M GT anymore...
    did another backup and went to the local apple store
    took a print out of Apple Knowledge base article that described the defect (TS2377)
    and they replaced the logicboard+gpu for free within 10 days ...
    everything is ok now except for my maxmsp copy which thinks it runs on an other machine and complains about a missing licence ....
