Sound click skip stutter mini 311

I upgraded my Hp Mini 311 from Win 7 Home Premium to Win7 Pro.
Since then every audio track I have skips EXACTLY 20 seconds from the end of a track (just like a dirty cd) regardless of the track length. I'm also unable to restore the mini to factory defaults, and I can't get a reply from Hp customer support for  restore disks or help or warranty, despite many attempts.
I tried a fix in another thread which was unsuccessful.
So far I have:
*Checked RAM/CPU usage.
*Removed all possible conflicting programs
*Reinstalled drivers
*Removed all drivers
*Used windows generic drivers
*Used different media players
*Enabled/Disabled all enhancements and exclusive rights to sound devices.
*Used different media player programs
*Rebuilt the media library
*Played media from different devices such as a network and USB
*Re-installed the OS (Restoring the Original OS no longer works) - I would kill if someone could help me get hold of restore disks please!
*De fragmented ALL drives
*Put media players as priority processes
*Sacrificed virgins to the Great Cthulu
* Cleaned the windows registry
Please, for the love of god and all that is holy, someone help me!

I found a solution on myhpmini.com I've posted it below for anyone else with this problem:
Here's a quick guide to fix the stuttering problem.
* Disclaimer * I take no responsibility if this fubars your Mini. Do this at your own discretion.
Open Control Panel -> Device Manager. Go to IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers. Choose the Nvidia nForce Serial ATA Controller.
Go to the Driver tab. Click Update Driver. Choose Browse my computer for driver software. Click Let me pick from list of device drivers.
Select the Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller. Click Next, Okay, or whatever it asks for, and you're done.
The computer will need to reboot twice - once for the controller, and a second time to redetect the hard drive.
Cheers!

  • HDMI sound distortion on a mini 311

    When playing through the TV using HDMI the sound is badly distorted, no matter how low the sound level is set on the computer or the TV. I've updated the Nvidia drivers (sp45034.exe) but it made no difference. I've flashed the BIOS too. If I play the same recording through the computer speakers, it sounds fine.

    Thanks in advance - Chuck

    I have the exact same issue.  I have been asked to return for repair (which I did).  Service center "reassembled" the unit.  Obviously they never checked the issue because once received back, the problem continued (no change from before).  Very frustrating.
    Tested two HDMI cables, and two TV's.  Same garbled audio on all equipment.  Audio is fine on built in soundcard/speakers.
    Bought this to be able to stream on the TV... so much for that idea.

  • Mini 311 Sound Stutter

    Hello all,
    I upgraded my HP Mini 311 that came with Windows XP to Windows 7. Following the upgrade I found that I have issues with my audio stuttering/skipping. I've tried uninstalling and installing drivers. I currently have the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC and NIVIDIA High Definition Audio drivers installed in my sound section of the device manager.
    This is driving me crazy.
    It happens when steaming audio via podcasts, Pandora, etc.
    This question was solved.

  • HP Mini 311 1037 that is having sound issues.

     have an HP Mini 311 1037 that is having sound issues. It sounds as if it is going through a spring reverb effect. Is this something that can be corrected? Can the sound card be replaced on this mini? please help.

    Try the following steps.
    1. Open up device manager.
    2. Locate your audio driver.
    3. Right click and uninstall the driver.
    4. Go to the toolbar in device manager and select "scan for hardware changes."
    5. After it completes, reboot the computer.
    Try the audio now and let me know if it continues to have the same issue.

  • Hp mini 311 purchased from verizon

    i have an hp mini 311.   it is running horribly slow and stops and crashes, to the point where it is not hardly usable.  ive run several virus and malward programs and all say its clean..  ive done the obvoius such as deleting cache and temp file...  in any event i am giving the computer to my daughter to use and want to just restore it to the factory setting or just reburn the operating system to the machine which should take care of whatever the problem is.   when i click the "restore to factory settings" option, it tells me to insert the windows operating disc.   dont have one because this unit doesnt have a disc drive.  i did purchas an external usb drive, which works quite well..  so........   what is the easiest way to restore this machine back to original ?    there are no files on the machine that i can not do without. 

    Did you try Pressing F11 right after pressing power on button?
    Sorry because of different timezone I might not be able to help/reply you right away.IF that happens I deeply apologize!

  • HP Mini 311 - HP Battery Alert - Primary (Internal) Battery (601) - Error Message at Startup

    I have a HP Mini 311-1037NR (Product Number is VBM262UA#ABA).   My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium.
    When I start up my HP Mini 311 I receive the following message:
    HP Battery Alert
    The system has detected the storage capacity of the battery stated below to be very low.  For optimal performance, this battery may need to be replaced.
    Primary (Internal) Battery (601)
    ENTER - Continue Startup
    Here's are my questions:
    First of all, what exactly is the problem here?  From what I have googled, it would appear the problem is NOT my external battery, but my internal battery.  What battery is needing replacement?  Does it have a name?
    Second, is there a user guide out there that would assist me with the replacement process that someone can provide a link to or at least send me the page that helps me?  Is there a YouTube video (even better)?
    Third, what exactly is the part number of the battery that needs replacement and exactly where do I purchase it (How much $$ does it cost)?  This question is important as I may be able to find out how to replace the battery, but without a way to purchase the replacement battery I'm still dead in the water.
    Fourth, my HP Mini 311 just dies when I unplug it.  Will a remedy for the above issue remedy this issue as well?  I really do enjoy using my little HP Mini, but would prefer to have the option to use it without a power cord. 
    Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    Hi Tim,
    No problem and it's certainly wise to verify an answer.
    I'd say you posted your question on the correct board.  It's usually best just to post once on the relevant board.  I do agree that the term 'internal' does cause unnecessary confusion.
    Here's a link to your Maintenance & Service Guide.
    Yes, I'm certain that the 601 error code refers to your notebooks main battery ( 602 is a failure code for machines that have a secondary storage cell ).  Interestingly, there is no error code generated for a failing rtc battery - or any in built diagnostic test for it, just the usual symptom of the system clock re-setting after each shutdown.
    There's also a HP document regarding start-up battery alerts on the following link.

  • Hp mini 311 1000nr speaker problem.

    i got my mini 311 1000nr 2 months ago. All of a sudden last week, the left speaker started producing sounds all staticy and annoying. The right speaker was totally fine. I then turned off the left speaker and only used the right speaker. Now all of a sudden the left speaker makes the noise all staticy. Im pretty sure its not a computer error because when  i plug in external speakers it sounds fine. The speakers are made by altec Lansing.

    Do you get this static when the charger is plugged in. If so then it can be interference. However if you dont get any static from the headphone or plugged in speakers the you internal speakers is faulty.

  • Does HP Mini 311 have TPM?

    Does the HP Mini 311-1037NR  come with TPM (trusted platform module) so that I can use bitlocker to encrypt the drive?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    It is a piece of hardware, some business machines have it built-in (you can see in Device Manager, not BIOS):
    But you can also use Bitlocker without TPM. Please check the folllwing article:

  • I cannot get sound on my iPad mini. Any ideas?

    i cannot get sound on my iPad mini. Des anyone know how this can be fixed?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • Recovery image for Mini 311-1037NR

    I have a Mini 311-1037NR that has been returned from one of our users. The recovery partition has been wiped by the user (they used it as a data drive I think). if there a place that I can download the recovery partition image or a recovery iso that can be written to a USB drive to factory recover this? Purchasing the CDs won't help as I have no way to use them on the netbook.

    You will need to use a USB dvd drive for a recovery disk set (CD or usb media).
     Unfortunately downloading the recovery partition is not an option.
    You will need to purchase a recovery disk set or recovery usb media from HP or an HP partner.
    Here is a link to order Windows 7 recovery media for the mini from HP.

  • Clicking/skipping at end of songs

    When I import cds into the new iTunes I notice a clicking/skipping at end of songs. It's not on all my cds, but most. Seems to happen more on the newer cds. Never had this problem before.
    It's driving me nuts.
    Any ideas --should I just wait for an update?
    Thanks.

    Hey deadlylaugh,
    If you are having an issue with iTunes for Windows playing your songs with poor sound quality at the end of songs, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    Hi Good day. Just trying to ask about my HP Mini 311. It wont turn on. When I try to press the power button, only the battery light blinks "thrice". Also when i put an ac adaptor, also blinking "thrice". Nothing appears on screen, but only the battery light keeps blinking everytime i press the power button. This scenario came when I  shutdown the laptop by long pressing the power button. Please help.
