Satellite L755D - sound keeps cutting out for no apparent reason

I posted this in another thread, but thought I might need to start one of my own since a solution had been found by that person and I am still having a problem. So, about three weeks ago the sound on my computer began just cutting out for no apparent reason.  It happened while I was watching streaming video and I tried updating all my software stuff (like flash and java and things of that nature).  It still continued to happen and now it was happening with streaming video, with youtube type videos, and with mp3s stored on this computer. I discovered that if I went to the control panel and clicked on sound/hardware and then clicked on the tab for recording, the sound immediately came back.  So, I've been doing this for the past couple of weeks and it is extremely annoying! In another thread on ths forum, the individual discovered that the Malwarebytes program had been the culprit and I was happy to have an answer, except that I had installed security software last week which removed MB from my computer.  And I continue to have the issue even today.  I clicked on the link in the other thread to update my drivers and I continue to have the issue. Can anyone help?  It's making me crazy! Thanks in advance.

OK - I'm getting this as well. Satellite L750-1E5. It was fine for ages and this started happening about a month ago now. - tried updating the drivers - System restored back to when it worked, not working This led me to think it was a hardware problem. My gut feeling however was that it was some sort of driver problem as sound would cutout after about 2 minutes, but would often come back if I started playing another song or something. Reinstalled Windows 7(64 bit) and played through an entire song with no issues(using Windows 7 sound drivers). Ran Windows update and the issue has come back.  Installed the proper Conexant driver, but issue still occurring. I believe a Windows update has caused this issue.

  • Mavericks - Why does my sound keep cutting out?

    I installed the most recent security update two days ago, which I thought was just for Safari, but now my sound cuts out to about 10% for a second every two to three minutes. It happens in iTunes and Spotify. Anyone else having this issue?
    I'm on a Mid 2012 15-inch MB

    Yeah Kase12 I was just wondering if you ever figured out what was making this happen...I have tried replacing all the cables and it still does it...Every couple minutes the sound will cut out for a few seconds then come back on and it might be 30 miniutes before it does it again or it might do every 4 minutes theres no pattern to it
    .If you figured it out could you please shoot me an email at [email protected] thanks

  • Itunes login window keeps popping up for no apparent reason

    For about 2 weeks now the itunes login window asking for my itunes password keeps popping up for no apparent reason at annoyingly frequent intervals on my touch 3.1.2. This seems to occur regardless of what i am doing on the ipod or which app I am using at the time. If i enter my password and press ok the message still pops up again later. Anybody have a solution?

  • Hi folks! My MacBook Air is making awkward little chipping sound... For no apparent reason. My Macbook Pro does the same. Goes like "chip... chip... chip", always three times in a row, for no apparent reason. Does anyone know how this occurs? Thanks

    It seems to be linked to the sound being on. When I mute the thing, it doesn't do it. When I plug headphones into it, it does it over the headphones.
    Thanks for your help!

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    In the Console window, look under DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION for crash or panic reports. A crash report has a name ending in ".crash" and a panic report has a name ending in ".panic" Select the most recent report from each subcategory and post the contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Keep Losing Connection For No Apparent Reason

    Have had BT Infinity for about 18 months or so now. Every now again, I get spells of it (the hub and the router) crashing out for seemingly no reason. Reconnects, only to disconnect again. Was so bad yesterday, it made PC unusable. Unplugged everything overnight last night, as lost my rag with it, plug it all back in again this morning. Worked fine until this afternoon, where it started doing the same again, all be it not quite as often as yesterday. I had the router changed out by Kelly Comms in Dec, but never had a problem with the old one, so was reluctant to change it, now I can see why!!
    Any ideas, before I launch it up the garden?
    Cheers
    Solved!

  • TV keeps cutting out for anywhere from 2 - 20 seconds

    My TV service cuts out arbitrarily (screen goes blank) for anywhere from 2 to 20 seconds. Tends to happen more often and more frequently in the evenings.  It is occurring both on my HD-DVR box as well as my standard STB.  All the boxes are Motorola.  Any ideas.  This started about 6 weeks ago and is getting really annoying. 

    that is usually an HDMI issue, so that is either coming from the TV, the Cable itself or the Box. 
    you can try resetting the box first, and see if it goes away.   
    Menu > Customer Support > in home agent > reboot STB. 
    If that doesn't work, you can try power cycling your TV,  just unplug the TV for a few minutes, and then plug the TV back in,   see if it goes away. re 
    And you can try reseating the cable (oddly this works)   just unplug the cable at both ends, plug em back in.   Or try switching the port on the back of your tv (the set top box only has one HDMI your TV may have several to plug into)  
    And you can try changing the cable itself.     
    If all that doesn't work, then then call into customer service and see if they have any tricks up their sleeves,  they sometimes have special reset commands that are a little stronger than simply resetting the box.   they may have to replace it if all else fails.  
    if you plug in a different cable like Component it will probably go away, and you will preserve the High Definition Picture quality.

  • Wireless Internet keeps cutting out for a few minutes

    Hi,
    I have a WRT160N router using DSL and PPPoE, and my internet continually cuts out at most every 15 minutes or at the least once an hour. I thought it had something to do with security so I changed from WPA to WEP but that didn't do the trick. It is almost as if it has to restart itself but that shouldnt happen. What can I do to fix this issue. 
    Please any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    Hello 
    To get a better handle on the problem, connect at least one computer to the router using an Ethernet cable. This can help isolate the problem further.
    You can pretty much connect as many devices to the wireless side as you wish. The only problem you might encounter if you connect a large number of machines on the wireless side is lack of bandwidth. I can't imagine 5-6 machines on a wireless network would be a problem, unless one or two of them attempts a large file transfer. Even then, I would expect the wireless to be slow - not down.
    What version of firmware is in your WRT160N? How long have you had your router, and has it worked properly in the past?

  • After upgrading to Mavericks, the free space on my SSD keeps going down for no apparent reason

    I downloaded Mavericks and installed it on my macbookpro ( with Crucial M4 SSD) and the free space on my ssd keeps going down for no reason. I reinstalled it from a bootable flashdrive, and the free space went from 20G to 60. Since then it keeps going down and I am now on 48G. I cannot find the source of the drain.

  • Wireless headphones MDR-RF970R sound keeps cutting out.

    I always acquire Sony products and have had good luck by and large. However, I acquired Sony wireless earphones from Best By and although the calim was to a tranmission wpu;d reaach 150 feet, I could not receive a signal at 25 feet. I placed the trasnmitter where I had for the old RCA wireless earphones I had so they should have worked. I promptly took them back to Best Buy. This is why I always shop at Best Buy. No questions asked and no restocking charge.

  • Sounds keeps cutting out - volume bar disappears

    Hi
    I have restarted and restored my ipod and still this problem is happening.  Sometimes I press play and it looks like it is playing but there is no sound, now after restoring it the sound comes and goes, sometimes it starts playing a song and then just stops - nothing has happened to this ipod so I don't really know what to do or what the issue could be.

    If it still happens after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod that points to a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
