Popping sound after upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit

I recently upgraded my T61 with Windows 7, 64-bit. I added 2 GB of memory to take it to the max limit of 4GB. However, when I log off, I get a popping sound twice, and when I log in, I hear it once.
I was able to generate the same popping sound when I either mute or unmute the sound on my laptop.Also, when I plug in external speakers into the speaker plug, I get the popping sound as well.
Any idea as to why I'm experiencing this issue? Is there a driver issue? It's not affecting the performance of my laptop, but it is very annoying and didn't happen when I had 2 GB and Windows XP Professional (32-bit)
Thanks

Hello,
You mentioned that you upgraded the operating system to the 64-bit edition of Microsoft Windows 7. Did you install over a previous operating system, such as the 64-bit edition of Windows Vista, or perform a clean install of Windows 7?

No sound after upgrading to Windows 8 HP G60-553NR Notebook

I recently upgraded to Windows 8 from Windows 7 64-bit on my HP G60-553NR and went through 3 tiers of tech support with Windows because after upgrading to Windows 8 Pro.... I had no sound coming from my speakers from my notebook nor will sound play when headphones are plugged in. Windows Tech support said that there are no compatable sound drivers to download, which leaves me with no sound completely which is no bueno. So, is there a driver that I can download that will work on my notebook?! If not, how do I downgrade to Windows 7. I'm a DJ and I really need some sound like asap. Thanks in advance for your assistance. Thanks

Do an HP system recovery to get back.
If you have discs - put first in and boot.
If not, you can go into settings from CHarms and advanced to select recover. Here's more: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03489643

Weird pop sound after upgrading ram and harddrive

I randomly got the pop sound after I upgraded my mac mini core 2 duo to 320 gb 5400 rpm harddrive and 4 GB ram (2GBx2GB).
The sound is like a plastic click (similar sound when I the wireless mice hit the aluminum wireless keyboard) and it's quite loud.
Everything works fine except the pop sound ,Im a bit worried.
First I thought it was the hard drive problem so I copied the 3 GB music from the CD to the newly 320 GB internal HD with no problem at all ,no pop sound or click sound.
Do you have any idea where the sound come from?
Please help

I will try to swap the 80Gb back .
If the clicking sound disappear then it's the HD.
No, that's not the best way to test it. Leaving the new drive in the system, try and copy a large file to or from it. What that will do is keep the drive busy for the duration of the file copy, and let you listen for the noise. If the noise continues while the copy is taking place, and particularly if it increases in frequency, it would suggest a problem with the drive that is not a simple matter of self-parking - in other words, would be suggestive of a faulty drive that you would likely be best not to trust at all (in fact return it).
If the sound disappears while the copy takes place, then it suggests the noise is the self-parking activity, in which case as much as the noise is odd and even disturbing, it wouldn't suggest a fault or any real indication of imminent failure.
It should be said that many drives used in early minis made the most alarming sounds, yet are still in regular use with no unusual failure rate. Indeed, one of the manufacturers concerned (Seagate) indicated at one point that over time the sounds would change and grow less prolific, which in my experienced turned out to be the case. In your situation therefore, I'd continue to use the drive, ensuring I had an adequate backup routine of course, and see what happens!

No sound after upgrading to Windows 7 M55-S3293

I upgraded to Windows 7 and installed the drivers from Toshiba for my sound card and before installing checked the windows XP box under the compatibility tab. No sound. I did windows update for this driver and it installed an updated driver. No sound. I went to Realtek and installed the windows 7 generic driver for this sound card (thats all manufacturer's offer is a generic driver) and LOW sound. Now I rebooted and back to No sound.
Before windows 7 sound, after no sound.
Toshiba put out a fix for a contextant audio driver for the low sound problem to be corrected with windows 7 but I cannot find anything for my computer.
I don't know know what to do! I don't want to go back to using XP but sound is REALLY important. I would think this is an integrated sound card (Toshiba isn't making service manuals public anymore, it was there the other day and gone today) so I cannot remove it. I don't think I have any available PCI slots to install a new one internally and I don't want extrenal speakers since I do a lot of traveling.
Is there a fix I don't know about? What can I do? Please HELP!!!

Hi Ryan,
Go here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/downloadDetail.jsp?soid=1671893&pf=true
and download the software called "Sound Utility to Turn Mute Off After Upgrading to Vista", it is made for people that upgrade to VISTA, however, once you have all your Toshiba updates installed by downloading the Toshiba updates, then apply this update to your Windows7 system and the problem will resolve.
I don't know why they did not make this update part of the Toshiba Update Package.
I hope this helps,
best,
Alejandro

X 200 fan noise after upgrading to windows 7 32 bit

last month iv'e upgraded from win vista 32 bit to win 7 32 bit, ever since (that day exactly!) i did that i'm facing a lot more fan noise then before the upgrade, noise that bothers me.
it seems like the fan is starting to work more often then before, and besides that it never goes into idle but continue to work all the, regardless of the load on the computer.
until now iv'e tried to update anything possible (including bios) , i have reinstalled the win 7 with a clean install (the first time i used the update option) and again updated everything possible, that didn't solve the problem.
iv'e also tried to change the power manger options regarding the fan and cooling policy. the only thing that made any change is the "reduce noise dynamically" but that option also changes the overall performence of my system,so that's not a solution for me.
iv'e also read in a couple of places that turning down the wifi or access connection helped someone, but not for...
any ideas what to do next?

i've got the same problem. upgraded from a silent windows xp to windows 7, and there's the noise.
have you found any solution to tune it down?
thanks and best regards,
michael

Portege M700 rotation issues after upgrading to Windows 7 64 bit

I upgraded to windows 7 last night on my portege m700. It is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I installed all the drivers under the Windows & 64 bit category on Toshiba's page. Everything works great except the screen will not properly rotate when put into tablet mode. I can push ctrl+alt+ arrow keys to rotate it, and I can also use windows mobility center to rotate 90 degrees at one time. I am wondering what I need to have it rotate once snapped into tablet mode, like it did in Vista. I have the Toshiba rotation utility installed but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. It seems like it is not receiving a signal from the monitor that it has been rotated.
I need this for school, so any help is GREATLY appreciated.

Hi
I think there are not all Win 7 64boit drivers published and released for M700 and you will have to install also some drivers released for Vista 64bit!
For example:
*Tablet PC Extension Package v 1.0.0.1 for Vista 64bit*
This driver package installs a range of important utilities.
_TOSHIBA Rotation Utility:_ Set the default screen orientation you want the system to use when switching from PC to Tablet mode, or vice-versa.
_TOSHIBA Tablet PC Buttons Driver:_ You can dedicate tablet buttons to performing common tasks so that you can easily operate your tablet computer when you're away from your workstation. For example, you can dedicate a button to open a program or to change your screen orientation.
_TOSHIBA Accelerometer Utilities:_ These Utilities are a set of hardware utilities that work with the motion sensors built into you machine. With the Accelerometer, your machine will be able to detect the way you are holding it at any given moment. You can set the machine to perform a specific function when the unit is quickly tilted to the left or right, or to the front or back. You can also take control of the cursor in some applications and make it move by leaning the PC in a certain direction.

Firefox no sound after upgrade to Windows 8.1

Recently I updated from Windows 8 to 8.1 After doing so Firefox will not play any form of sound at all. Or I have to turn my PC volume to 100% plus the video volume max and I can hear the video or sound very faintly.
I've done a reset, reinstall, went to troubleshooting for the sound section and nothing is fixing the problem? I have no idea what to try next or why it's not laying sound at all. It's really starting to bug me.

Got it working. Reinstalled flash and disabled acc and now it works. Thank you for the help.

No connection/no sound after Upgrade to Windows 8....

Hi! I Updated my Windows System a couple of days ago. Since that it's not possible to use Skype.
I usually use the Desktop version:
-> Sometimes if I try to call Echo Service, it connects and after 2-3 seconds call the sound disappears. It's not possible to call, the microphone doesn't react.
-> Sometimes it starts to call but doesn't connect anymore. (calls drops before)
-> If I call my regular contacts, neither I can hear them nor they can hear me.
-> After reading some hints I tried to install the newest version of Reatec Audio drive (I use Lenovo laptop). Since that moment the Echo Service is either unavailable ("Problems with playback device") or it starts to call but drops before connection.
If I se the Windows App it just doesn't open at all, only the blue screen appears.
Does anyone have some suggestions? I'm quite dissapointed.. Thanks in advance!

I assume you updated from Windows 8 > 8.1? You should go to the manufaturers site, and download windows 8.1 drivers for your PC. If you cannot find Win 8.1 drivers for your system, there might be compabillity issues.
Also make sure your OS is fully updated, along with IE.

No sound after upgrade to windows 8 on presario cq60-220us notebook

Windows 8 recognized the sound device but there is no response on the internal or external speakers. The video display is also lagging... not smooth replays. I couldn't find any windows 8 drivers.

Hi,
Try something like this.
Download and instal the latest Intel chipset driver from here.
Reboot system.
Download and instal the latest Intel graphics driver from here (if you are using 32-bit system) or from here (if you are using 64-bit system).
Note:
I can not promise that this solution will solve the problem, or even that you can install Intel graphics driver.
This may be also problem with overheating. Clean the vents of your notebook using compressed air.
Resource:
Reducing Heat and Fan Noise by Cleaning Air Vents
It is not easy to understand what kind of problem you have, because you gave us is not so much detail in what circumstances the problem occurs.
About the audio problem.
Press the key combination Windows key + R and type in the filed box devmgmt.msc
Right click each device with yellow exclamation mark ( ) and choose ' Properties '. Next select ' Details ' tab, use the dropdown selector to choose Hardware Ids and paste all the values from there to the next reply. There is a chance that this information will help me help you.
Below you've got example how to do it:

2015 HP Envy 23 Ips monitor with Beats Audio is not working after upgrading to Windows 10

Hi I have upgraded OS to Windows 10 recently. from then there is no sound from my monitor. FYI.. am ussing a Dell laptop to connect to the monitor witha HDMI cable. It was working fine before upgrade and suddenly it stoped working after the OS upgrade.

Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I have read your post on how your notebook computer's monitor will not produce any sound after upgrading to Windows 10, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter! According to the available list of supported drivers for your monitor, there is currently no Windows 10 software published at the moment. In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on HP Products - Where do I find Windows 10 drivers and software for my model? I also suggest connecting the monitor on a different computer to test the hardware functionality of the speakers. I hope this helps! Best Regards

Sound distorted after upgrade to windows 10

sound playing is generalldistorted after upgrade to windows 10 pro. Individual sound elements in windows sound scheme seem to be OK.

Yup, you're not the only one with audio problems. I have a HP Split X2 also, my model is the m121-sa. The problem is that the company that makes the audio chips is IDT which has been sold to a new company called Tempo Semi Conductors (This has been done in early 2014). The new company will have to provide new Windows 10 drivers to support our audio chips, whilst they have made Windows 10 drivers for their newer chips; our old ones has no current drivers made officially for Windows 10. Microsoft are aware of this problem and will not be making any drivers - their solution is to use the Microsoft drivers by unistalling the driver through device manager and updating the driver to the Microsoft High Definition ones. The problem with the HP Split is that you loose beats audio and the audio is quiet, but it works on all apps. NEITHER HP OR MICROSOFT WILL PROVIDE A DRIVER That is above the IDT .6499. It is upto Tempo Semi Conductors to do this and they don't provide end user drivers but OEM's like HP. The problem only lies with metro apps, win32 apps such as Chrome has audio working... If you are having problems with the audio being quiet with the HP Windows 8 drivers (IDT), use the following settings. (though, I think my laptop is defective, but my warranty is gone so, I just turn up the treble - even though it sounds high pitched) On a side note, my other laptop (Toshiba) have been good by providing drivers for all components - Hopefully, Tempo do provide support for IDT as not only HP but other companies also use this chip. By the way, do you problems with start menu being black and blurrly text? For some reason, Windows 8 drivers don't do this but Intel Windows 10 drivers do this. Miracast also only works on the .37 driver and not the newest Windows 10 driver; will need to test this further. Yes there are new TEMPO drivers, but these again are for the new chips and not our old ones. It didn't work on my HP Split but you can try them below: http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp71501-72000/sp71717.html - notes for new driver 6.10.6504.0 http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp71501.exe - setup 6.10.6504.0 (64 BIT ONLY; WILL NOT WORK ON 32BIT) 32bit driver is 6.10.6503.0 EDIT: HP seems to be deleting my images. Not sure why.

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

1. Re: Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan
Anubha Goel
I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.
