Re: Pavilion A4316F - sound then no sound
Hi,
Got my computer last week. I had sound for days then nothing. Suddenly it started working
AMD Athalon II 620 processor 2.6 ghz
6 GB
64 Bit
I've checked all types this - audio, video, dvd, cd, computer sounds, headphone - nothing works.
I've attached separate speakers.
I've updated, uninstalled & reinstalled drivers for the sound card, which is Realtek High Def Audio.
I've checked all the volumes & mixers.
I've checked cords both outside and inside the CPU.
I've run troubleshooting and diagnostics. The graphics show the sound is there...for instance the lightsdance up and down the bar and the bars bounce from the speakers but I can't hear a thing.
Any suggestions?
Took the computer back to Staples where I purchased it today.
Their techs took a look at it and decided the sound card was dead.
They gave me a new computer.
Thanks for letting me post.

Hey. I am writing regarding my unresolved issue at http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-PC-Sound-and-Audio-e-g-Windows-8/HP-Pavilion-G6-NO-SOUND/m-p/2... .
Basically, my headphone port is broken, and the switch inside thinks that headphones are constantly connected. This, in turn, stops my onboard speaker from functioning. No settings I change in Sound in the Control Panel make any difference, however I know that the speaker does infact work. It is just the port that is broken. I am running Windows 8, and wondered if there was a registry edit I could make that would lead the system to believe that the headphone/phono port didnt exist, so I could then use the onboard speaker again.
Many thanks in advance,
ChrisThis should help resolve your issue:
Press Start > Run > Type regedit > Choose My Computer > from menu select edit > find > Search for "ForceDisableJD" and press find. > once found change the value from 0 to 1 > restart.
Hope this helps.

Pavilion g6 sound stops working after a while
Over the past week the sound in my laptop has begun to stop working after a while of the laptop being on. It works initially but after a while when I check it doesn't work anymore. The mute button does not mute work, the volume increse and decreases on the screen but it does not affect the absense of sound. Please Help.
System Details: HP Pavilion g6, Windows 8HI. I'm having the same problem. This has been happening for some time now. I can play anything with sound and then it suddenly goes and I can't use the mute/on/off or work out what's happening. Is it a fault?

Upgraded window from vista to 7 on pavilion DV7 sound not working
Pavilion DV7 1468NR upgraded windows from vista 64 to windows 7 64 sound not working
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.

View Solution.Hi,
Make sure you've installed other MediaSmart software first and then install HP MediaSmart SmartMenu last of all. You can find all the MediaSmart software available for your machine under the sub-heading 'Software - Multimedia' on the following link.

Go to the device manager and click on the multimedia audio controller needing drivers.
Click on the driver tab. Click on update driver. Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and at the bottom of that window, select the Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
The select Have Disk and browse to: C:\SWSetup\sp33443\CPL30A5a and select the Conexant High Definition Audio from the list and see if the driver installs.

Hi support,
I have a question regarding my sound card embedded on my notebook Pavilion DV6-2140el.
Could you please give me more details about the technical specifications of the sound card?
I would have also the model of the chipset. I am interested mostly on the output dB power of sound.
Thank youHello, @nicunicu
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you're looking for some information on components in your notebook. I will try to help you on this.
Most of this information is actually on the computer. You can use the Device Manager to find out a lot on each component. This may help you on how: What if Product Specifications For Your Notebook Are Not Available On The Web? - use the section on "Find specification using Windows Device Manager".
You may also find some information on those in the Maintenance and Service Guide.
I hope this helped.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Also the boot up will not let me select an external USB CD/DVD to boot with although it is recognised during boot but not in the bios.
A lot of notebooks don't support booting from USB devices. So, it is unlikely that you can boot from an optical drive that is not the internal drive.
I will be happy to locate the drivers for you. Do you have the same notebook as the original poster? The dv6-6704nr? If not, what is the model number of your notebook?

MY PAVILION G6 SOUND HAS STOPPED WORKING
i was watching a movie suddenly the sound is off. i checked the system volume, and then i plugged headphones but it was working correctly and i could hear the sound when i unplug my headphones nothing is coming out of the speaker. i opened the device manager and then i opened up sound,video and game controller but there was no issue (no yellow triangle) what should i do..
Hi Perfection,
I understand that you have lost the sound when using your headphones. I will try my best to help you with this issue. To better guide you, could you please give me some more information.
1. What is the Model Number of your laptop? LINK: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
2. What operating system are you running on the laptop?
Have you tried the headphones in another device to see if they are still working? If you have then maybe the steps in this document for Troubleshooting Sound Problems with External Speakers and Headsets in Windows 7 will resolve the issue for you.
I hope this helps, please let me know.

I have a HP running Vista (64 bit) I had sound and then I just stoped working.
I driver seems to be ok and I have tried 3 pair of speakers. All work on other items.
I did a system restore and checked all the mutes and volumes. I am out of idea's
I have about 5 hrs in to it and am ready to be done.So the sound just stopped working, what were you doing at the time? I'm not saying you deliberately did anything, but making sure. Does the system recognise the speakers (ie. in the system tray is there a speaker icon or does it have a red cross on it and say 'no speakers connected. If it refuses to recognise the speakers, there's a thread called 'brand new HP m8517c Vista 64 no sound.' Try looking on this thread for information. Brand new HP m8517c Vista64 with no sound!!! [ 1 2 3 ] You've checked the driver and so forth. Have you tried it with all the audio outputs, both front and back panel? Also, Check for yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager, if there are report back. Also try this. Run (type in start search box) 'services.msc' without the quotes. Browse down to the service called 'windows audio' and restart it. See if this works.

Pavilion dv8000 - Sound jittery/slow after resuming Windows
I'm using Windows XP Home. After resuming Windows, sound playback is sometimes slow/jittery. It's almost as if the sound is playing at about half-time. It comes and goes (seemingly) sporadically, so it's pretty frustrating. I've been having this for years, but never found a fix.
At first I thought it might be a Firefox and/or Flash thing, since I mostly notice this in playing of Youtube videos or songs on Pandora.com, but I found that it also happens in Winamp and other applications with sound.
I'm almost 100% that this doesn't happen after a fresh startup, just after a resume. In fact, if I'm trying to watch something longer on Youtube, I'll often just reboot so the sound (and accompanying slow playback) doesn't drive me crazy.
Besides rebooting every time I want to listen to/watch something, any thoughts on things to try?Hi:
Try these two...

If those don't work, then I don't have any other suggestions you can try other than to read this guide for upgrading notebooks to Windows 7.
The info for yours should be found under Models, Level 3.
