HP ENVY TouchSmart m7-j020dx Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR)

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/sp63501-64000/sp63555.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, download and reinstall the Chipset driver on the following link.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp63001-63500/sp63408.exe
When the Chipset driver reinstallation has completed, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f5, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, restart the notebook again before checking.
Regards,
DP-K

  • After XP downgrade, sound comes through both headphones and speakers

    Hi Forum Family,
    I recently downgraded my Pavilion dv2615nr from Vista to Windows XP. Managed to install all the drivers and then followed advice from CherylG (to whom I owe my ability to do anything with this laptop, frankly) to get the sound working.
    My remaining problem is that plugging in my headphones doesn't cut off the sound through my speakers.
    I have tried reinstalling the drivers following Cheryl G's advice but it returns me to the same problem.
    Can anyone help a newbie?
    This question was solved.

    That driver is known good and I used it in my notebook (see my sig)
    However, that driver have poor quality when I use mic for chatting.

  • Skype sounds making my other sounds play through s...

    Whenever a skype sound plays, the sound comes through my headphones. However, let's say I'm listening to music at the same time. The skype sound will cause my music to play through the speakers for the duration of the skype sound. Is there a way to make both the sounds play through my headphones?
    This isn't how it was on my old headphones. My new headphones are Logitech G230's.
    Also, in this image: http://prntscr.com/4adcvz you can see that a sound is playing through the "speakers" while it's actually playing through my headphones. My old headphones had a USB and my new one doesn't, so that might be why.

    I had the same problem, go to sound/playback devices accesible from either control pannel or right-clicking the speaker icon in the bottom-right-hand corner.
    Then play around with disabling/enabling different devices until it works.
    Put on some youtube video or something else that runs for a while, then every time you made a change call Echo/sound testing services

  • Sound plays out of my speakers AND my earphones at the same time

    I'm not sure how long this has been going on for but I just found out that when I plug my earphones in that the sound still plays out loud from my laptop (supposed to only come out of earphones).
    How do I fix this?
    This laptop is only months old and I can't seem to avoid running into problems with it's audio. Thanks a lot beatsaudio HP. I'm a student so it's very important when in a library that I'm not producing music or sound for everyone. Just for my ears only please.

    Hi @jlarbs 
    I understand that you are having a problem with sound playing through the speakers even when earphones are plugged in. I am happy to help.
    A fix to try is, to go into the Control panel
    then Hardware and Sound
    then click on Sound and select the Recording tab
    Select your microphone/headset as the default device, and press OK.
    Also you can look at this page from answers.microsoft.com, as if offers a few more suggestions.

  • ITouch 2G playing sound through both external speakers and earphones

    iTouch 2G playing sound through both external speakers and earphones when earphones are plugged in..
    M using the latest version of itunes and iOS 4.2.1
    ....Have already tried formatting, resetting and even formatting when my earphones were plugged in...
    Please help immediately..M out of warranty..

    Have you tried another pair of earphones? It may be that the headphone jack is failing. You can, if you are competent, replace it yourself or get it fixed by a third-part place. See the following:

  • Headphones usage on Satellite A660-BT2G22 -sound plays out of the speakers

    When I plug headphones into my Satellite A660-BT2G22 Laptop the sound plays out of the speakers and the headphones.
    There has to be a way for me to make the sound play only through the headphones and I would really love that because I am going off to college soon and will have a roommate and I will want to listen to my own music and stuff and not force him to hear my stuff all the time.
    Please help?

    This notebook model is not known to me but check control panel and option for some audio manager there. On notebooks with Realtek sound card there is Realtek HD Audio manager.
    Check all options there, especially small folder symbol placed at the right top side. When you click on it connector settings window will be open. Enable auto popup dialog.
    Now, every time when headphones will be connected you can choose headphone as only device you want to use.
    Please check it out.

  • After connecting my Apple TV this morning, I have no sound. It is hooked up to play through my television speakers. Any ideas on how to get sound? Also, I tried hooking it up through my surround receiver, but could not get it to come up on my ty screen.

    Have you tried adjusting the "Audio Out" and the "Dolby Digital" settings in settings > audio and video? It may be worth trying several combinations of these settings, although typically it is the "Dolby Digital" setting that causes most problems for users.
    Also make sure that you have correctly mapped the input port on your sound system to the output, if you are unsure about how to do this, refer to the manual that came with your sound system.
    Have you tried playing various content sources (i.e. podcasts, music, iTunes Store video, other video etc), do you have the same problem with all types of content? If you use optical you might also check that you can see a red light at the end of your optical audio cable. Is your optical audio cable plugged straight into your sound system, or does it go through a switch or other device?

  • My Mac suddenly stopped playing through my external speakers which are fine and working well with other devices.

    My Mac suddenly stopped playing through my external speakers which are fine and working well with other devices.

    Have a look in System Preferences -> Sound -> Output.
    Plug the speakers out. Do you now see "Internal Speaker" as the name from the Built-in device? If you replug your speakers, is it now changing to "Headphone?

  • How to make the notification sounds play through EarPods

    The notification sounds/ringer on my iPod touch keeps playing through the external speakers even though I have EarPods plugged in. If I turn on a video of game tho, it will play through the earpods. Is it possible to make the notification sounds play through the EarPods as well?

    Hi Everyone,
    Just in case anyone else runs into this problem here is the solution that i've managed to piece together,
    I have a movie clip twice the size of the stage, the movie clip is called bg_mc, here is my actionscript...
    bg_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, mouseMoveHandler);
    function mouseMoveHandler(event):void
    var cursorX = stage.stageWidth - mouseX;
    bg_mc.x -= dx / 5;
    this action script tells the movieclip to move left and right depending on where the users mouse pointer moves. (it also adds a slight delay to make it look like tweening)
    I then published this in Flash using the publish settings shown in the reply above.
    Then i went into dreamweaver and removed the margins in the html file
    Now the flash file will resize to any screen resolution and will allow the user to move the MC left / right across the screen depending on where the mouse pointer is,
    I hope this is helpful,
    Ben

  • Music wont play through my phones speakers

  • How can I turn off the Ipod 5g speaker so it just plays through the headphones?

    How can I turn off the Ipod 5g speaker so that it just plays through the headphones?

    First make sure your headphones are plugged all the way in, meaning no silver from the headphones plug can still be seen.
    If that's not the issue, try a hard reset of the Nano.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
