    Open the Device Manager:
    1. Click on Start and select Run. Now type devmgmt.msc and press enter.
    2. Right click on "Audio device on High Definition Audio Bus" and click Update driver.
    3. Select "Install from a list or specific location"

  • Tecra 9000: After SP2 installation the Yamaha sound driver does not work

    Hi,
    I own a Tecra 9000, with a Yamaha AC-XG sound card.
    The problem is that since I installed Windows XP with SP2 included, I lost my sound.
    I know also that Toshiba is aware of this situation and they have managed to post a solution for it. I've tried this solution:
    Detail:
    The Yamaha AC-XG driver uses PortCls function for checking the operatingsystem version. XP Service Pack 1, PortCls function is changed, then the Yamaha driver cannot get operatingsystem version correctly. The operatingsystem provides the version for Windows 95. Therefore the Operatingsystem has a blue screen. Therefore Microsoft added the workaround and illegal drivers are blocked from working on SP1. This issue also happens Windows XP SP2.
    Yamaha already provides the fixed drvier to Toshiba. The fixed driver version is the following;
    yacxg.sys 6.13.10.2152 with software synthesizer
    yacxgc.sys 6.13.10.3152 without software synthesizer
    How to fix this issue:
    Install the fixed driver on a system before/after installing Windows XP Service Pack 2.
    Install steps:
    (1) Unzip an attached file on your hard disk.
    (2) Run SETUP.EXE
    (3) Click the Next button.
    (4) Choose "Yes, I want to restart my computer now" and click Finish.
    A toshiba engineer told me that first of all I needed to install the old driver "5.12.01.3141", and it worked out ok, but still no sound.
    And then he told me to install the version "6.13.10.2152", but this went wrong. I've got the error message "Driver was not installed".
    I already tried lots of different drivers, including generic and yamaha drivers.
    Please tell me a good solution for this issue if possible.
    Thank you very much,
    Hugo

    Hi Hugo
    It seems today is your lucky day ;)
    Thanks to Toshiba because the Toshiba computer knowledge base is a really useful area and I have found many useful document and solutions!!!
    I found also a solution for your tiny issue ;)
    As you said the problem is the Microsoft service pack 2. The sound driver makes some troubles after the installation of SP1 or SP2 and therefore the update is necessary!!!
    Please take a look here:
    Windows XP Service Pack 1a or Service Pack 2 incompatible with existing Yamaha sound driver

  • Satellite A300D-15B PSAKCE - Cannot install the Win XP 64bit sound driver

    Hello all,
    This is my first post here after lurking for the last week or two, My hope is that somewhere here there is help and hence hope!
    I have a wonderful Toshiba A300D-15B PSAKCE with 4GB/O RAM, however I am suffering from some problems that the holy SEARCH function cannot solve. I use this laptop as a development box for uni/work alas...
    After an absolute nightmare with Vista32 and Vista64 I decided to go back to windows XP32, however this wont install, keeps claiming a CRC file failure after (and yes this is with the SATA in IDE mode and with an XPSP2 disk)
    I decided that I really DONT want to goback to Vista, so installed Windows XP64. Now the initial Instal goes very easy, I have the basic setup, the chipset, graphics, network, processor, usb, pretty much the basic... except... and this is where I have lost most of my hair.... SOUND!
    Firstly attempting to install the sound driver results in Failure, claiming the mmdriver.inf cannot be found or corrupt, obviously I checked, and yes there it is, for the sake of it downloaded the MMDRIVER.INF and placed it system32, and still the install fails.
    I have also tried a "Manual Install", from the .inf files... this includes the XP32/64 drivers and the Vista 32/64 bit drivers, still the same
    problem, driver continues to fail install. I am becoming increasingly bald. Outstanding Drivers that WONT install
    *-Audio Device on High Defninition Audio Bus*
    *-Mass Storage Controller*
    *-Modem Device on High Defninition Audio Bus*
    *-USB Device*
    If the following is any help, (Sandra 2008)
    *-Disk Controller*
    (AMD(ATI) SB700 SATA Controller [IDE Mode])
    *-Disk Controller*
    (Toshiba SB700 IDE)
    *-Audio Device*
    (Toshiba IXP High Definition Audio Controller)
    *-Audio Codec*
    (Conexant Systems 5051h)
    *-Audio Device*
    (AMD (ATI) RV635 Audio device [Radeon HD 3600 Series]
    Now, as I write this I have heard rumor that the A305D uses the same
    audio/graphics drivers.... well.... off to try something I guess...
    if there is any help or ideas I would appreciate it.

    Thanks Jaba
    Initially I attempted to locate the MS patches you mentioned, KB835221 and KB888111 respectively, alas there were none available that I could find for XP64, also at the time of tapping this message theres no XPSP3 for XP64 bit either.
    Lucky for me I logged into my MSDN account and downloaded XP+XPSP3 tore the house up looking for a CDR... anyway long story short.... solved all the problems with the required updates of SP3, I now have my Toshiba A300D-15B all singing 'n dancing laptop setup completely with XP32.
    Had to take a hit on the RAM though, gonnna have to go on with only 3.2GB instead of 4GB,
    arguably when one counts the memory foot-print that vista ultimate 64 had used I am probalby still on a winner here in memory avaiable terms LOL!
    thanks again! much help!

  • XP Sound driver doesn't work on a Satellite A100-02B

    Hello,
    I've installed Windows XP on my Satellite A100-02B.
    But the Sound Driver from Toshiba Download Site doesn't work.
    The installation works without any errors, but Windows doesn't find a sound card and I can't hear anything.
    Can you help me?
    Thanks,

    Man, thats great that you found your solution. So I had suggested to check www.realtek.com for some working drivers. ;-)
    Have phun and nice weekend

  • [SOLVED] moc: "FATAL_ERROR: No valid sound driver! Server exited!"

    mocp
    Running the server...
    Trying JACK...
    Trying ALSA...
    ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1741:(_snd_pcm_hw_open) Unknown field mmap_emulation
    ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1022:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
    Trying OSS...
    FATAL_ERROR: No valid sound driver!
    FATAL_ERROR: Server exited!
    so some time ago i messed up the sound badly and now i'm clueless on what to do. i have alsa, oss and pulseaudio (re-re-re-re-re)installed (i know i shouldn't). i'm a total noob when it comes to the audio department so i can't really add way too much to it.
    audacious drops the following when i try to play something:
    ALSA error: snd_pcm_open failed: Invalid argument.
    there is audio, however (some games/web) if i pulseaudio --start.
    pls ask for outputs to give you the necessary info

    did you have working audio before you did something that messed it up?
    alsa is pretty much all you need for working audio. You could run pulseaudio on top of it if you want, but usually it doesn't benefit you in any way unless you have some specific issues with alsa, like audio only playing from one application at the time.
    You can safely remove everything OSS related, unless you actually want to configure your system to use OSS for some reason.
    If you want to revert to default your alsa configuration you could just remove your ~/.asoundrc and /etc/asound.conf if you have modified those files. If you want to use pulseaudio, reinstall pulseaudio-alsa to revert /etc/asound.conf configuration so that your alsa-only applications work with pulse.

  • Satellite P10-802: What was new in sound driver update

    There are new sound drivers for Satellite P10-802 which claim to add sound features such as 3d enhancement and software synthesizer and i would like to know what these actually do and if it's effective enough to bother updating.
    For example the sound system is made by toshiba bass enhancement but when i put in my very costly bass earphones,
    My cd player [produces atleast 5x more bass and clarity.
    So i would like to know what the driver has to offer as to what the standard driver can do.
    The driver description is as follows:-
    A broad range of audio controls are possible by using this sound driver, including: Software Synthesizer, Microphone volume, 3D enhancement and Power management
    thanks

    Sounds much information to me already.
    Updating is mostly a good thing and they remain the same standard sound driver, just with some new features.
    Ok, I'll take a lokk at it.
    3d enhancement: Seems like when using a complete surround sound speaker set was improved, maybe it added more settings like distance between front and rear or delay from rear speakers as you would have like using an expensive stereo receiver.
    Software synthesizer is a little tweaking of how music for example sounds. IF you wish more bass or treble than you could adjust ist with this program.
    I don't know if you need those features, so you have to decide on your own.

  • Satellite Pro M30 - cannot install sound driver

    Hi
    I have a Satellite Pro M30 which usaed to work fine but I can no longer install sound card drivers on it.
    I THINK it has happened since we reinstalled windows XP Pro with SP2 but can not be certain.
    It is trying to install the Sigmatel AVC97 drivers and comes up with the following error.
    Invalid operating system parameter or this installer does not support this operating system
    Any suggestions as there seems to be only one sound driver for the SPM30 family.

    Nobody here have got a problems with sound driver installation just you
    So is this not strange for you???
    Either you did something wrong or its your windows XP issue.
    Please note that the Toshiba driver page provides also the Installation Instructions
    There you can find the right installation order!
    Install your OS again and follow this instruction in this doc!

  • Satellite P200-1B6: Sound Driver update fails and HD-DVD Player doesn't work

    I have just bought a Satellite P200-1B6 laptop and spent the day installing the updates recommended by the TEMPO program. One of these was a Sound Driver update from RealTek but on running this it fails about 80% of the way through with an error: 'Install Realtek HD Audio Driver Failure !!'.
    Now the Toshiba HD DVD player fails to start with an error 'Unable to output the video to an external device.
    Please switch your display device by pressing the Fn + F5 keys after ending the application'. I've tried this but it seems to have no effect.
    I'm now regretting starting to update the installed drivers. Should I try to rebuild the machine using the recovery discs or is there another solution that someone has found? Or have others found the upgrade works?
    Any advice welcome

    Last month I upgraded my PC Satellite P200 (BIOS, Driver ATI HD2600, Package VAP and HD-DVD Player).
    But after this update, I was no longer be able to read my HD-DVDs
    Error message was: "Unable to send the video to an external device. Please turn off the display device."
    The problem was much of the update Realtek R1.76 (Realtek Sound Driver - 6.0.1.547 - 20/11/07) currently proposed on the site toshiba.
    Indeed, the P200-1DE is equipped with Realtek ALC268 Audio Codec.
    The latest update of this codec is R1.89. I downloaded from the site Realtek and it has allowed me to solve the problem.

  • HT3986 i installed win 7 on my mac book, and the sound driver was installed successfully, but i don't hear any sound, please help

    i installed win 7 on my mac book, and the sound driver was installed successfully, but i don't hear any sound, please help

    Is the volume muted? Click on the volume icon in the system tray to see if it shows as muted. If that's the case, I know of a workaround to fix this because if you unmute the speakers now, the condition will come back when you reboot your computer. I don't know the exact steps off the top of my head at the moment as I'm not in front of my machine. Check this first and reply if muting was the problem and I will detail the steps needed to fix the problem.

  • Which sound driver to use ILSR, MSI, Nvidia or Realtec

    Which sound driver is working best with the K7N2 Delta?
    I am using the one that comes on the Nvidia unified drivers right now but am wondering which one is really better.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Grog: Next time you do a search on the web use "SoundStorm" rather than "Sound storm". nVidia is third or fourth in list after search using google!
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/motherboards.html
    This lists all mobos that that are "SoundStorm certified".
    You are right though, the manual is a little "Sketchy" with the details - it's not really surprising there's confusion  
    EDIT: Whoops Just noticed my link's already been posted!

  • Tecra S11-15T asks to install always sound driver

    Good day all
    My Toshiba laptop S11-15T has a sound driver problem, every time I restart my laptop in want me to install a
    Microsoft UAA bus driver high defection audio driver.
    I've tried re-installing the sound drivers but it doesn't do the trick.
    Please assist...

    Hi
    What Windows OS do you use?
    Is it Win XP?
    As far as I know the Win XP SP3 contains the Microsoft UAA bus driver high defection audio driver and some patches and fixes.
    If you use this system, I recommend installing all patches and service packs firstly.
    Then you should uninstall the sound driver and after new reboot install the driver which you could download from the Toshiba page.
