Sound not working on dm4-2070us Notebook after BIOS and HP Support Assistant

The sound on my dm4-2070us Pavilion notebook has stopped funcitoning after this evening's BIOS and HP Support Assistant updates. I am running Windows 7, 64-bit. After the update, a driver update was installed for the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC. The update installed fine and is enabled, however, I hear nothing when testing sounds on through my laptop speakers. Any advice? I tried rolling back the driver, but that did resolve the issue.

I got the same Issue after updating the bios to F.17, got the Audio issue resolved after installing driver version:6.10.6423.0 >> http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp58501-59000/sp58698.exe

Sound not working on my 27" iMac after updating to Mac OS X 10.6.8.

Hey,
I recently updated my 27" iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo software to Mac OS X version 10.6.8 using the software update tool. As soon as the update finished, I noticed the audio was no longer working on my computer. The issue appears to be system wide becuase no applications will play any audio, and when I adjust the volume using my keyboard I do not hear the usual clicking sound.
I have tested the audio using the iMac's built in speakers, external speakers, and headphones; none of which worked. Also, in the system prefences > Sound I have tried changing the sound output between the two possible options, Soundflower (2ch) and Soundflower (16ch), neither of which changed anything. Does anybody have any clue as to what might be going on here? If anybody has a tip for me, please do share.
Thanks in advance.

HELP iPad mini sound not working

We just bought our daughter her iPad mini today and the sound just stopped working. It'll only work with headphones; we never put headphones in prior to the sound not working. I tried resetting the phone and phone settings several times, as well as plugging in and out headphones. I changed the switch on the side to lock rotate. I also turned off the mono sound thing. I am at a loss as to what else there is to do. Any other suggestions? I've been at this for a couple of hours now trying to fix her iPad. Please help!

Do you get sounds in any apps on the iPad ?
If you get sound in the Music and Videos apps but not others then have you got notifications muted ? You say that you changed the side switch to rotation lock, but are sounds muted ? The switch on the side of the iPad controls either rotation or mute, the function that it isn't controlling is set via the iPad's control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the iPad's screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off').
Notification mute and rotation lock : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Sound not working Notebook Envy 15 TS windows 8 and windows 8.1 - problem continues

Hello,
My computer sound stopped again.
I posted previously:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-PC-Sound-and-Audio/Sound-not-working-Notebook-Envy-15-TS-windo...
After I`ve followed David`s steps my computer`s sound started working again. But it didn`t last. The sound stopped working just one day after.
I did the procedure again, and it worked. But just for a few hours.
The second time I reinstalled the IDT codec I noticed at the device manager that there is no conflict at the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC.
Instead, the conflict appear in another item of the sound, video and game controllers topic: high definition audio device.
Is there another codec I should reinstall?
Could anyone help me?
Regards,
Luiz

Pavilion dv6-6c35dx - Sound not working after a HP Support update

Pavilion dv6-6c35dx with windows 7
I recently did a factory reset, and with the reset had to do all the updates. One of those updates from the HP Support assist was IDT High Definition Audio CODEC version 6.10.6381.0 on driver stwrt64.sys. And with that update i no longer have sound. When i put the cursor over the sound icon on the toolbar it says no headphones or speakers are plugged in. I already tried disabling and re-enableing the AMD HDMI output audio device through the control panel menus, didnt work, also it says its not plugged in. When i go into the hp supprt assist, to troubleshoot, to audio and sound, the status on the IDT says Error(52).
How do i fix this?

Hello everyone,
Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
It would appear that you two are experiencing different issues. I will definitely address both of you!
First, I feel it would be wise to perform a System Restore. You can return the computer to a point before the issue existed. Here's how to do it: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
If that doesn't work, then look at the below suggestions:
*Before any real troubleshooting, please put your computer in a clean boot state. This should prevent third-party programs from interfering. This document provides information on how to do it: How to perform a clean boot in Windows*
*Next, unlock a new Administrator account, so we can troubleshoot on a clean account. Open Command Prompt as Administrator, and hit Enter after typing the following: net user administrator /active:yes
You will be able to log out of your current user account, and log into the Administrator one.
*Finally, make sure all of your Windows updates are complete:
1. Open "Windows Update" in Control Panel.
2. Click "Settings", and then click "Install optional updates".
3. Next, click "Check for updates".
If that step doesn't work, then look below for the appropriate troubleshooting:
@epicness50 , you need to perform all of the steps in this document: No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
Also, since there is a Device Manager Error 52 issue, you may want to look here for additional information and suggestions: Code 52: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device
*The above Microsoft document is for Windows Vista and Server 2008, but the troubleshooting can be done in Windows 7.
@LENNY12 , you mentioned you uninstalled and reinstalled Support Assistant. However, I'm going to ask you to do it again, but with a little more troubleshooting to address what could be causing the issue.
Source of the troubleshooting is my own post: HP Support Assistant Windows 8.1
Uninstall your version of Support Assistant in Control Panel, Programs and Features, then restart the computer.
Solution: Download Support Assistant from its own special home
1. Click on the following link: HP Support Assistant. It will bring you to the following page:
2. Click on "Notebooks, laptops, netbooks " under "Download HP Support Assistant". It will prompt you to download it. So save it, then run it AS ADMINISTRATOR.
If either of you are still experiencing issues, I would perform a System Recovery to reinstall Windows. This will rule out which of the above options are to blame.
First, you should backup your data. I will provide information on how to do that: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 7)
Once this is done, it is safe to do the System Recovery. Here is some information on how to do this: Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
Thanks and have a great day!

Sound not working after checking for driver updates and resetting bios

I am running a (HP Pavilion dv7-6c60us Entertainment Notebook PC)
I had muted the sound and did a system upgrad prompted by my HP assistant after logging on. Now when I try to get sound nothing happens. So I went out to the support site and checked for driver updates and none were found. So I then went into my system bios and reset it as stated in a support for sound not working and still no sound. HOW DO I GET MY SOUND TO WORK AGAIN?

From your models support page Download & Save the latest Audio driver.Go into Control Panel,Programs & Features- Uninstall IDT software.Restart the laptop. After Windows loads, install IDT audio using the downloaded file.

Sound not working after installing ios6

Sound not working. After double clicking bar at bottom has the line for sound but button to slide is mssing

Uninstalled IDT software from programs, removed/rolledback the drivers, downloaded the HP Support Assistant and it recommended an IDT software, installed that via HP Support Assistant. Everything is working fine now.

After upgrade to ios8.3 sound not working

After upgrade to 8.3 on my iPad, Sound not working at all, no matter which application i open there is no sound.

If you don't have sound in the music app or the videos app, try a reset. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
Having suggested that, I assume that you did check to see if the volume is turned up on your iPad.....

Sounds not working after replacing hardrive

I am running a
HP Pavilion DV9700 Laptop
Product # KN876VA#ABA
Running Windows 7
I cannot find where to check the Sound Option in the BIOS.. When the laptop starts up, I am pressing F10, it goes to the BIOS screen but I cant find where to check the sound settings.
I changed over my hard drive and since then my sound hasnt worked it is saying "No Audio Devices Installed" I installed the Realtech AC97 but it still is not working. In the Device Manager it is showing it is working properly (no yellow signs or anything), but I cannot get the sound to work, so I am thinking the BIOS has something to do with it, I just cant find anything to do with sound.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I got it working by resetting the PRAM.....shutdown, then as soon as you restart the machine, hold the oprion-command-P-R buttons on the keyboard until you hear the second startup tone.

Tecra M10 - Sound not working on Windows XP SP3

TECRA M10 Sound not working with Win XP SP3
1. Drivers are installed from the toshiba web site.
2. Chipset drivers and sound drivers were reinstalled no luck,
3. Not Muted FN+Esc
4. Device Manger All drivers ok

Hi
If I understand you right all devices listed properly in device manager and you dont have yellow exclamation marks?!
Normally for high definition sound cards you need two patches from Microsoft:
KB835221 and KB888111.
Normally these patches are integrated in SP3 but this only works if you install the sound driver after SP3. So if you have an older version of XP without SP3 you must update to SP3 first and then install the display driver.
So in your case you should remove the current sound driver and restart the notebook. Then use CCleaner to clean the registry and system folders. Restart the notebook again. Then download and install the newest sound driver from the Realtek Hompage.
Bye

AUDIODG.EXE hogging 80-100% of CPU and sound not working in Vista . . .

I posted this on a Microsoft Answers Forum but none of the techs or people reading have been able to help so far. I'm dying to get to the bottom of this:
Here is my computer:
MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
2GB RAM
XFX GEFORCE 6600 GT 128MB DDR3 DUAL DVI & TV OUT (PCI-E)
200GB WD SATA HDD
500GB WD HDD in external enclosure via USB2
NEC ND-3520A 16X DVD±RW Dual Layer DVD Burner
LG CD Burner
I've been using Vista Home Premium successfully for some time. Recently, not too long after I did a clean wipe of my OS, my audio would stop working. The way it would happen is that everything would work fine until I started iTunes or another audio application and when I would hit play, things would lock up.
Upon inspection of my system resources, I'm noticing that the audio platform for Vista, via the audiodg.exe, is using close to 100% of my CPU resources, even when the computer is making no sound at all.
I've had a Sound Blaster Live! card in my computer for some time but I was not using it; I use the Realtek AC'97 audio drivers that are on my motherboard instead. I thought that the conflict may be the computer wanting to recognize my Sound Blaster, so I took it out of my computer but the problem seems to be worse.
Are there any BIOS setting that need to be adjusted for my sound to start working again?
I'm very reliant on the audio processing power of my computer (I'm in the radio industry, part-time) and this is a huge drag on my productivity.
Any tips would be much appreciated.
REPLY #1:
Thank you for using Microsoft Answers forum. I suggest going to the manufacture of your sound card and download the latest drivers and install them.
MY RESPONSE:
Good suggestion. The problem is this:
I am running on-board audio. I have an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard which runs "Realtek ALC Series AC97 Audio Driver" and there is no version for Vista. They have a version for Windows 2K/XP and one for Windows XP 64bit.
Should I use on of those and if not, then what?
UPDATE (from me):
I took a chance and found a Realtek AC'97 driver for Vista.
http://drivers.softpedia.com/progDownload/Realtek-AC-97-Audio-Codec-Driver-Vista-6183-Beta-Download-18114.html
I went to install it and the install hung. So, I closed one of the install windows and then the InstallShield app continued like it was working. So, I hit "Restart my computer". Well, the reboot hung too. So, I reset the PC manually.
When the computer came back up, the sound worked. Hard to tell if this will fix it for good but it's promising. Chaotic. Unpredictable. Annoying.
REPLY #2:
Before you tried updating drivers, did you try rebooting 1st?
I'm just trying to determine if rebooting your system is what resolved the issue - thank you
UPDATE II (from me):
My computer is behaving the same way it was before. AUDIODG.EXE taking up 80-100% of my CPU and the sound not working.
Any other ideas?

Small update: Despite my intelligence, good looks and vast experience I use Google sometimes. To my surprise this file turns out to be a Windows one. Here is someone who is much happier, and since it is some way in my line of thinking I'll quote it, but you might take my previous advice as well:
http://forums.techarena.in/windows-vista-performance/1012315.htm
"- Open up msconfig.exe > Manage startup programs.
- Disable ALL Realtek entries
- Close msconfig.exe
- Right-click on the speaker icon > Audio devices > Speakers (properties)
- Go to the enhancements tab
- Check the box to disable all audio enhancements
- Close the menu
- Right-click on the speaker icon > Recording devices
- Disable all your microphones (yeah..., the actual problem seems to come
from voice inputs rendering..)
- Close the menu
- Restart your computer"

Z61t - Sound not working

Hi,
I am new to this forum. Had purchased the z61t about 1.5 yrs back. Was working fine. I am very satisfied. However, recently, when the laptop was on standby, the battery drained completely. After I recharged the battery and brought up the laptop, the sound stopped working.
Here is what I have done so far:
1) Have checked the device manager - sound card seems to be working fine.
2) Tried to re-install the sound card driver - no effect
3) One forum said i should not disable the modem or the sound would not work. I have verified the bios setting for Modem and it is enabled.
4) Have verified the sound controls in Windows - it is not muted.
My laptop is out of warranty. The model is z61t-9440 CTO with Windos Vista Business.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sachin.

I had tried head phones with the same res showed no problemslt.I did run a diagnostic and it showed no problems.I will run a disc check.One other thing when I do play audio the meter in the slider jumps up and down like audio is playing. I dont know if that makes any differance but, anyway. Im thinking it might be a hardware issue? Thanks for helping.
