Quicklaung​e buttons on my HP Pavilion dv7-2260ed not working and always red

The quicklaungebuttons (Mute, Volume, cd options and wireless) on my HP Pavilion dv7-2260ed stopped working and are always red.  This happend 3 weeks ago. I runned the HP assistent but no errors were found. Any help is welcome

Hi, I have more or less exactly the same problem.
I own a pavilion dv7 1090eb, which originally had Vista 32bit on it, but I updated to Windows 7 32bit more than a year ago,
not long after 7 was released. Ever since that update (or a few days after, I don't really remember) I've been having problems with the quick launch buttons.
For over a year it was just my mute button that was always orange. I could still mute my sound, but when not muted, it sounded like it was really filtered, all the low and the high were gone, only low mid sounds remained.
My jack exits, both of them, however, still work fine, and I have good audio through external speakers, so I kind of solved that.
But still, the laptop itself has great sound, so I should be able to get that without having to carry around external speakers wherever I go.
Oh and I used to have the same problem with Vista from time to time, but after rebooting it would just go back to normal.
But now just today, I left my laptop on for about 2 hours for some image rendering while I was away, and I switched the wifi off, which I usually do when I leave my laptop unattended. But when I came back, it wouldn't turn back on again, and none of the quick launch buttons worked anymore.
I tried reinstalling all drivers after I did some troubleshooting options which didn't work.
Turned it off and on again a couple of times.
Then found this thread and installed the above link, rebooted, still doesn't work.
What now? What can I do to resolve this problem?
I really hope I can get a solution for this.

    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.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-3165dx heats up and shut's down

    My HP Pavilion dv7-3165dx heats up and shut's down/ locks up,  It does seem Hot so I'm assuming it's due to heat, or heat related. The Vent's are not blocked and no dust.. This could happen within the first 5 minutes of powering up. I swapped out the hard drive just to be sure it wasn't  the Hard drive.  any suggestion's or idea's with this brief explanation...

    You can chat online with a HP Specialist about your issue and details if your eligible to replace your laptop.

  • Hp Pavilion Dv 9000 no audio, quick lunch soft touch not working and no light indicators

    Good Evening i have problems with my laptop since it was sent to me without a hard disk drive so i have to buy a new one to make it work, first here are some useful information regarding my laptop.
    Hp pavilion dv 9000
    OS: Windows Vista Home premium
    HDD1: 250Gb
    Ram: 1030mb
    so when i got the hard disk drive, i installed windows vista as its operating system and so far it worked well, and after that i downloaded drivers from HP's website, with correct laptop model and os, i searched for the most compatible drivers that will make my laptop function 100%
    i installed
    NVIDIA  Chipset driver
    Hp Quick lunch buttons
    Audio Driver
    so after the installation and reboot of my laptop, it seems that only NVIDIA chipset driver worked, the quick lunch buttons are still not working, and also i cannot hear anything comming out of my speaker when i try to play some music, but i hear some loud beeps so it means it is 100% functioning  and also i noticed the 3 indicators at the bottom lefot of my laptop for (Power,Charging,Reading) lights are not lighting up.
     i tried to uninstall it and install it again just like other blogs says but it doesnt work. . .
    i really want to make my laptop fully functional . . 
    can you help me please

    Hello @iamDestiny ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you've installed a new HDD in your notebook and are unable to use the keyboard shortcuts and have no sound from programs on the computer.
    It would help to know if you're using a 32 or 64 bit version of Vista. To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
    Keep in mind beeps typically come from the onboard BIOS speaker, not the actual speakers. Can you tell me what you do to hear the beeping so we can tell if this is a system beep or a Windows sound? Also, can you tell me if headphones work?
    Regarding drivers: I would suggest installing the HP Support Assistant (HPSA) to search for drivers for you. You can download this here: HP Support Assistant. You can see how to use it here: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 7, Windows Vista).
    When you installed Vista did you use the HP recovery CD's or your own copy of Windows? 
    Let me know the updated info or if the HPSA works.

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

    Hold down on the home button simultaenously holding on the sleep wake button (power button) hold it for more than 15 seconds this will then shut down the device.
    If the device is already shut off do this same sequence to see if you get an apple logo. If you get the logo allow the device to login. Write back if this does not resolve your issue.
    Good luck Friend.

    he menu button of the ipod touch (4th generation) is not working and the service center of ipod is asking us to pay for the fixation of the said item even though it's still on warranty. this is the case number 215866894. And the service center said that they don't cover that center part of the ipod so they're asking us money before they can fix it. We bought the ipod last december 8, 2010 and we brought it to the service center last april, 2011 here in the philippines. And until now they're not fixing it because they're asking us to pay half the price of the item which is 8,040 pesos..

    As advised, you need to call Apple about this.

    Hey skeith75,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, your iPhone may need to be serviced to fix that button. However, if in the meantime you would like a workaround for turning the volume up on a phone call, you can use Assistive Touch:
