Pavillion Entertainment PC DV6 - sound suddenly not working

Hello,
My computer just installed an automatic update from Windows and now my sound is not working at all.
I have Vista 32 bit operating system and my notebook is a DV6-1107AX.
I have already unstalled and reinstalled the IDT driver and it's still not working.
Help please - I desperately want my audio back!
Thanks

Hi Sades,
I understand your audio does not work correctly after a Microsoft update. Here is a document on undoing the update. You can restore it to a previous time when it was working correctly.

  • Mail sounds suddenly not working

    For some strange reason, my mail sounds are not operating. I have a certain sound selected to announce incoming mail, but as of today, it doesn't ring. Nor do I get my "No Mail" sound. When I go to System preferences>Sound, none of the sounds play when I click them. Other sounds (iTunes, voices, etc.) work OK.
    Does anyone have an idea as to how to fix this? Maybe deleting mail .plists?
    Thanks.

    If the sounds don't play in the Sound Preference pane then deleting mail.plist won't matter.
    Check in /System/Library/Sounds. Do the .aiff files open and play in QT when you double-click them there? If not you'll need to run repair disk from disk utility and if they still don't work after that you'll want to see if you can replace them.
    If they do work, then try pulling the following to the desktop and logging out and back in:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences/By Host/com.apple.systempreferences.XXX.plist (where XXX is a random string)

  • G560 sound suddenly not working

    I was watching a show on my laptop, paused it, came back, and suddenly the sound doesn't work. I tried it with and without headphones in, no sound. And when I check the sound icon on the bottom right, it shows that the laptop still "thinks" that there's sound. 
    I have no idea what to do to fix this! 
    Please help

  • How do I resolve sound issues? I have gone to settings but I have not made any changes but some sounds suddenly stopped working like keyboard clicks etc.

    I haven't made changes to my sound settings but suddenly now certain sounds do not work such when I plug up to change, keyboard clicks on messages, etc

    Double-click the Home button and swipe Task Bar to the right. Check volume and mute settings.

  • Sound on imac suddenly not working

    Hi my sound is not working. When I use the keyboard I get a circle with a strikethrough and a dashed line underneath. Can anyone suggest how to get the sound back?

    Go to System preferences/Sound/output and see if built in speakers is selected.
    Try plugging a set of headphones in and out several times.
    Try a pram reset:
    Power off, power back on golding  OPTION+COMMAND+P+R
    Continue to hold these keys till you hear the start chime 2 times then release, reboot.

  • I don't know why my sound is not working

    all of a sudden my sound is not working

    @Katmar,
    What is the product number?
    Go to device manager and expand the sound category.  Is the sound card listed with an error?  If it has an error, open the device and let me know the status message.
    If it is a recent issue, have you tried a system restore?

  • The sound is not working on my iphone

    the sound is not working on my iphone it has suddenly stopped can someone please help me?

    None of these methods worked, so I just took a very thin paintbrush and dampened it using a Clorox wipe. Then, I just wiggled it around in the charging port. The sound worked for like 3 seconds then it stopped again. So I continued to clean it and it worked! After I listened to my music for about 30 minutes until it stopped again. I just blew hard into the port and it started working again. I think the problem was that the phone thought it was docked into speakers because it was so dirty. I think I'm going to get an Otterbox so this doesn't happen again. I hope I helped.

  • My sound suddenly stopped working, how do i fix this?

    my sound suddenly stopped working after i unplugged my headphones, how do i fix this?

    Common problem.
    Check the headphone port - if you can see a red light, the port is still live, cutting off the internal speakers.
    The cause is a little leaf switch that is pushed over by the jack when you insert it. Sometimes these stick.
    Try inserting and removing a jack a few (dozen) times.
    If that doesn't free it you may attempt to tease it with a slim non-conducting tool (like a toothpick). Ensure the Mac is not only shut down, but unplugged if you try this.
    And be careful; the leaf is fragile and it's an expensive bit to get to and replace, in fact on some models it's directly on the logic board.

  • Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Sighhhh, wasted so much time yesterday and today going around Sony centre and then carphone warehouse. They told me to come back after Easter.
    I came home, banged the phone against the wall and it worked.
    Turned out that mic was working on loud speaker and when using headphones so I thought that the secondary mic is working and the main one (placed with the speakers) isn't. So I banged that part against the wall slightly (in plastic case to prevent scratches) then put the phone underwater, waited for it to dry and now it's working. Idk how well and if it's of perfect quality again but people can hear me well.

  • My sound does not work on my computer

    Hey
    I don't know if anyone can help me but my sound is not working on my computer. I went to my system preferences and when I click on output it says that the device has no output controls. I don't know why it is doing this. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

    See:
    * https://support.mozilla.org/kb/No+sound+in+Firefox
    * https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Video+or+audio+does+not+play
    You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
    You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
    Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
    You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.

  • Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working. I can login to my account but as soon as I do that the screen goes completely white. I can change the volume and I have a mouse but that is it. I've tried safe starting my computer and that doesn't work.

    Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working past the login page. A white screen comes up that I cannot get rid of. I attempted a safe start up and that failed as well. It's a white screen where I have a mouse and when I click the volume buttons I can hear it working but nothing else just white. Please help.

    Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store &amp; sign out &amp; log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

  • Alerts sounds are not working after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2

    Hi,
    I've noticed that all the alerts sounds are not working anymore after upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.1.2
    I’ve reviewed similar posts regarding the same issue; and it seems this is a common issue in iPhone 4S when upgrade to iOS 7.1.2.
    Apple, please Advise if there anything I can do to resolve the issue especially that my work deepens on the push emails and alerts that requires prompt response.

    I got this issue resolved.
    It caused due to some dirt in the charger slot; such dirt caused the phone to assume as if it is connected to a car kit and that is why it does not produce any sound except the Ringer and the Alarm.
    It has been fixed by cleaning the charger slot by toothbrush! with some
    drops of a cleaner.
    Do not do it by yourself, as it might be a risk; rather, let it to be done by an expert.
