Static over cd playback (HP Pavilion dv6-6b57sa)

HP Pavilion dv6-6b57sa
windows 7 64 bit
i got my new laptop today, really excited, everything seemed great, i installed all the updates, everything worked well and most still does
but... i put in a cd and during playback there was a vast amount of static...
i tried other cds, some have it, some don't.
its not a problem with the cd, it works everywhere else, and its not a problem with speakers as they play other cds, so whats wrong?
i would of though audio would be this computers strong point with the beats...

i found a fix
go to beat audi management and max the speakers and headphones bar, there must be something loose or not right but the loudness must fix it somehow
it is fine for all volumes then

Hp pavilion dv6, I have to keep resetting my playback tone contols after sart up

When I start my hp pavilion dv6, i have to reset my playback tone contols and the "apply" option is greyed out. How can I keep my tone setting as the default setting for my speakers?

You guys probably resolved this by now but just in case you haven't I have been having the problem for about a week now. I bought a customized dv6t Entertainment notebook in July but recently didn't want the Beats audio manager on at startup so i went to msconfig and disable IDT audio from the startup menu. That's when everytime I turned on my computer the tone controls went crazy, with the bass all the way down and the treble all the way up. So after some testing I found out how to fix me. Even though it has been 8 months since you asked about this, here is my SOLUTION.
1. Using the Sound Manager set your tone controls to the desired levels or just click reset to zero.
2. Click the start button and type msconfig in the search bar. Hit enter.
3. The System Configuration box will appear. Click on the third tab that says Services.
4. Click the bar that says Service to arrange the programs alphabetically.
5. You should see Audio Service with the manufacturer being IDT, Inc. if not then scroll down til you see it.
6. Uncheck Audio Service. Click the Apply button at the bottom of the page then the OK button.
7. You will be prompted to restart your computer and then do so.
8. That's it! Once your computer restarts the tone control levels should be where you left them.
If you are having problems with this, it may be because you don't have IDT PC Audio disabled at startup which can also be done in msconfig one tab over from Services. This launches the Beats Audio Manager at startup but just disabling the Audio Service may do this in one fell swoop. Hope this helps, even after all these months!

I think the high heat situation and damaged your video chip at the very least and someone will have to open the laptop and reflow, reball or replace the video chip. If this machine is in warrantee, you need to call HP or contact them before it is out of warrantee.

Sound Playback Issue with IDT High Definition Audio Codec HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

Since i bought this laptop, every time i use skype or the Windows Sound Recorder, i hear static that drastically increases in volume. Uninstalling the IDT High Definition Audio Codec prompts my computer to automatically install the driver again, this usually fixes the problem, but after restarting my laptop, the problem returns.
Does anyone know a permanent fix to this issue?
Product name: HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
Product number: B3K22PA#ABG

Hi,
Please try:
(a) Uninstall IDT sound from Device Manager,
(b) Reboot the machine
(c) Download the following package and install again:

HP Pavilion dv6-3050tx Overheating while Running Over Battery

I have an hp pavilion dv6-3050tx, Running Windows-7 64 bit. Few days back I had changed my battery as my earlier battery was not able to provide backup more than 5min. But after inserting the new battery I am facing a problem.
When I unplug the charger, after some time my pc get hibernated, and when I again turn it on it shows following massage
"The system bios has detected your notebook PC was placed in hibernation to avoid overheating.
The system is now operating normally and your data should remain intact.
Overheating may occur if the cooling vents are blocked or the operating temperature exceed the specification. The notebook PC should return to normal operation once the situation is resolved.
System Temperature (90D)"
I cleaned the fan and also applied thermal paste, but the problem is still there. And the main thing is, it happens only when the pc is running over battery, on Plug-in I have used my pc for 3-4 hours continuously and its running smoothly. But as soon as I unplugged the charger, the fan starts moving faster and soon after some time the pc automatically gets into hibernation due to overheating.
Again I am saying specifically that, this problem occurs only when the PC is running over battery. While Plug-in pc runs smoothly and properly.

Hi
This wat you can try.. install the Bios update from
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-100446-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
and also try to install

HP Pavilion dv6 speaker light stays red, unable to hear sound

I have a HP Pavilion Dv6 Notebook PC Product # QE071UA#ABA. The light on the speaker button (F11) stays red when I tap on it, but I can see the sound bar and icon in the center of the screeen. I am unable to use the mouse to adjust sound. When I hover over the speaker Icon on the toolbar it says that no speakers or headsets are plugged in. When I click on the icon, It tries to trouble shoot the problem, but itc an not detect the problem. I have shutdown the laptop. unplugged the AC and battery, held the power button down for 60 seconds, plugged the AC and battery back in and restarted the computer. I have also ran a system restore back to before a critical update on 8/27/14. So far nothing has helped. The AMD high definition audio device states that it s working properly. Laptop has Beats Audio. Using Windows 7.
Thank you for the help.

Hi,
The AMD driver is just related to audio over an HDMI connection - for your main audio through the internal speakers or headphones, this is provided by the IDT HD audio driver, so 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/sp52501-53000/sp52658.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device ( if it's listed ) 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, shutdown 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, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

HP Pavilion dv6-6c53cl Notebook - Internal Hard Drive Options

Greetings,
I just purchased an HP Pavilion dv6-6c53cl Entertainment Notebook PC (at Costco), and so far it's been a great deal. Everything seems to be working just fine.
Because I do a lot of development work in Virtual Images, I have been running a number of external Hard Drivers from the notebook over the couple of weeks since I've owned it (including an external SSD). All that seems to work fine.
But, I was wondering if anyone knows whether it is possible to install a second Hard Drive or SSD in this Notebook Model. I saw on the HP site that some Notebooks allow the installation of a second Hard Drive, but I couldn't find any information on this model that would suggest it can handle such a configuration.
My primary objective for doing this would be to retain the original 1TB Hard Drive that came with the Notebook, but have a secondary SSD Drive to perhaps run the Paging activity from, when such functionality is needed upon running some of my larger Virtual Images.
Any assistance with clarifying if this is an option with the HP Pavilion dv6-6c53cl would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Wayne

Sound Issues HP Pavilion dv6-6158nr Entertainment Notebook PC

Hello,
I have HP Pavilion dv6-6158nr Entertainment Notebook PC with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS. Recently I noticed issues with how my volume control works. I am not sure if it's an application issue (Firefox 9/10) or audio drivers. While watching playing an audio file or watching video my default playback device is set to speaker, but as soon as I plugin my headphones both headphones and speakers will go to mute. Some times disabling and re-enabling the device will solve this issue, and other than that I also have to restart Firefox to get the sound back.
Tried installing all the available updates form windows, also reinstalled/update the sound drivers as n admin with no possible fix. Also as shown in picture below, when I try to make a Google call using Firefox I use built-in mike an headphones. During that time headphones icon will be appeared in the window shown below listed as communication device and disable both audio in/out.
Let me know if any further information is required.
Thanks.

First uninstall the audio driver:
Click Start and type device in the search field, then select Device Manager. >> Audio, video and game controlar >> right click and uninstall all values under it >> restart >> download and install the following drivers:

Solved Crackling Problem in Windows 7 (SB 24-bit USB External, HP Pavilion dv6 1124-ca laptop).

I'm one of many users who has had problems with the sound crackling problem with their sound card after upgrading to Windows 7.
I was previously on Windows Vista running 5. with 24-bit, 96000Hz sample rate Studio Quality with no problems at all. When I upgraded to Windows 7 RC, Windows was able to automatically find a driver for my external USB sound card, but when playing music, I always got a constant crackling sound coming from the speakers while trying to put the card in anything above 2. or and when putting it in 24-bit 96000Hz, the crackling only got worse. Installing the Beta drivers on the Creative site didn't work either... still had the crackling. I searched around for the past several months for solutions to no avail.
Then today, I was surfing the HP website (I have a HP Pavilion dv6 24-ca laptop) to see if they had added Windows 7 drivers to their support site and they did... and so I started downloading all available Windows 7 drivers for my specific laptop. When I first installed Windows 7 RC, it had installed it's own drivers for everything (on-board sound etc.). After replacing the Windows 7 installed "High Definition Audio Device" drivers with the HP supplied "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC" drivers... I'm not sure if the on board sound driver has anything at all to do with the crackling on the Soundblaster but I replaced the drivers anyway. I also installed another driver called "AMD USB Filter" that was supplied by the HP website for Windows 7 which is another driver that I thought might help with the problem. Other drivers installed were "ENE CIR Reciever Driver" and "Realtek Card Reader Driver" but those have nothing to do with the sound card.
After installing the drivers from the HP website, I no longer get the crackling from the speakers when playing in 5.. I am also now able to select 24-bit 96000Hz sample rate without crackling as well I am very happy to have finally solved the problem. So to anyone having similar problems, I suggest you check out your manufacturers website to see if they have any drivers available for you... I have a feeling the AMD USB Filter is what solved the problem... but who knows.
Hope this helps other HP users!

If you can hear the music through the speakers but not the headphones I would suggest using an AUX cable because seems the sound isn't being transmitted over.
Just a friendly note here. Don't buy the wireless turtle beaches I have the x32s and I'm continuously buying batteries !

Music only plays thru the speakers by inserting a plug in the headphone jack. pavilion dv6-6127cl

HP Pavilion dv6-6127cl (Notebook PC)
I have spent over 6 hours on the phone with tech support, but I remain unable to have any sounds go directly to my built-in "Beats" speakers. I can make the speakers work if I insert a plug into the headphone jack on the keft side of the notebook. If I plug in headphones to listen, I do get sound out of my headphones, but I also get sounds out of the builr-in soeakers. Tech Support insisted that either I spilled liquid onto my keyboard. (I did not), I dropped the notbook. (I did not), or the my computer was infected with a virus.
I doubt that this problem was virus related, because the problem happened during a 4 month period that I had no internet service. To be certain there are no viruses, I took the extreme action of restoring my notebook to the factory condition. I still have the same problem.
During my 6 hour troubleshooting marathon, the support technician had me update my BIOS and initiate many lengthy self-test procedures, all to no avail.
Please send me information on who to send this laptop to for repair or replacement under the original warranty.
I also have another issue. Tech support claims that my notebook warranty expires in November, but I purchased this notebook from Sam's Club brand-new, in an un-opened box in mid-January 2012. How can this date be explained and/or corrected?
Many Thanks,

Hello spl1080,
Your headphone jack is not working correctly on the laptop.
Was everything working correctly before you upgraded to Windows 8?
I know that you said that you updated the driver, but did you try the driver for Windows 7 and 8.
Here are the links for the drivers.
Windows 7
Windows 8
If you are planning on sending it in to HP to have it repaired they will make you run a recovery before you send it in.

Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day.

HDMI sound. Pavilion DV6. Windows 7. TV sound was working via HDMI. Now switched off?

I connected the pavilion dv6 to the tv with an HDMI cable. Sound and vision were working on the tv after setting the TV to HDMI.
My Grandson discovered that their was no sound from the computer and, unknown to me, changed something to get sound from the computer speakers which stopped sound from the tv.
How do I get sound back to the tv via HDMI. How do you switch from computer to tv sound and back ? can you have both at once ?
malcolm

Hi Malcolm,
Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Display Devices - make a note of the hardware listed here i.e. ATI, Nvidia or Intel.
Next, connect your notebook via HDMI to your Tv. Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click once ( just to highlight the entry ) the HDMI Output that has the same name as your display adapter and then click the Set Default button - see if you now have audio.

Hing conected to monitor case and wires broken on HP Pavilion dv6-6c13cl

Hello,
I have a monitor with broken hing/monitor case and the wires that connect the monitor to the computer is also broken. (I know I droped it in is such way that the monitor is okay but the hings broken from over extension.)
I need to replace the monitor case. The monitor works but the wire that comes out of it is in bad condition, needs either repair or placement.
Basically what I need are
1. The part number of the case with the hings.
2. The wire that connects the monitor to the computer, Or I can replace the monitor and I have found p/n from this forum which is 665334-001 I belive.
Thank you

Your display part nos are listed on page 31 of the Manual:

AMD High Definition Audio Device Not Plugged In (HP Pavilion dv6-6b09sa)

I have just booted up my HP Pavilion dv6-6b09sa (running on Windows 7) laptop to find that the sound icon has a red cross next to it and it claims that 'No speakers or headphones are plugged in'. In the Control Panel it states that the AMD High Definition Audio Device is Not Plugged In. As far as I know, I've done nothing to cause this.I have already tried:System restore to yesterday at 10pm;Instalation of a TDI driver from the HP website, however I do not know how to edit/disable/delete the old driver. I'm completely clueless about these things. Please help, I'm at a complete loss.

This happened to me too. I own an HP Pavilion dv7-1135nr (Windows Vista). The internal hard drive stopped working, I took it to a computer repair shop, they put in a new internal hard drive, asked Microsoft for a key code and jump started the laptop. I took it home with me yesterday, watched a few videos and wondered why the sound wasn't working. The volume light on the laptop base was indicated as red (which meant the volume was off, even when the volume on the laptop screen was on). The only way I was able to hear sounds from videos was when I put my ear phones on.
I read somebody say that this happened to them and they restarted/rebooted their computer. I did that and, expectedly, it didn't work. I came across this page, opened up "Device Manager," opened up "Sound, Video and Game Controllers." Right-clicked the "IDT Device" and then uninstalled it. My laptop then restarted and thankfully the sound was back up. I didn't need to download anything or right click the "IDT Installer" or "Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button" or any of that. It thankfully came back without me having to do any of that. I restarted/rebooted my computer to see if it was a fluke, and thankfully it worked again. Now I don't have to use my ear phones. My ears didn't like being pumped with sound, even when it was on low. My "Digital Display Audio" is still not checked green. It says that it's "not plugged in." But hopefully I won't run into this problem again in the future. Because if I'm a week or two or a month removed, the repair people I initially went to for my internal hard drive problem, will say that this was a separate issue caused by me and will charge me extra, when it was in fact caused by them (not maliciously of course, I guess this kind of thing happens when you replace a hard drive, as do a lot of other things which I'm not beginning to see). Thanks DavidPK.
