Thinkstation S10 - Quadro FX580 - No sound transmitting through Displayport

Hi,
I have upgraded my Quadro FX370 to a FX580 with the intention of using the Displayport to connect PC to my LCD TV via HDMI. The picture transmits fine but the sound does not play through the tv when this cable is being used.
On the graphics card there is a port (spdif I think) to connect a cable to the motherboard I assume but cannot locate where I would need to connect it to. Unfortunately the card did not come with a cable, so I am unsure exactly what cable I need and where to connect it to the motherboard.
I can listen through Speakers using separate cable.
Any help on which cable I need and where it plugs into to gain sound through the Displayport would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Dan

Erik,
I do have a audio cable running to the TV but the Displayport to HDMI cable seems to disable the 3.5mm Audio input. I have bought a Soundcard with an internal SPDIF and will try to link it up to the Video Card to see if that solves the issue.
Will keep you posted.
Regards
Dan

Thinkstation S10 will not boot or post after GPU upgrade

Hello,
I am having a hard time getting this thinkstation S10 to boot with a new GPU. The pc runs just fine with the standard quadro fx 1700 in it. But as soon as i put my ati hd 5770 or nvidia gtx 460 in it wont post. When i put the new cards in i get wierd beep codes. Sometime they are 4-2-3-3 then sometimes its 1long and 2 short. It just shuts down and turns on and repeats but nothing comes up on the screen. The specs are listed and any help would be GREATLY appretiated.
Thanks

Audio Problems w/ ThinkStation S10 and Ubuntu/Mint/Suse

ThinkStation S10 6483-27U (onboard audio through Intel chipset, I think the codec is Analog Devices 1988)
Problem: no audio from internal speaker under Ubuntu 8.10 (32 or 64 bit); Mint 6 (32 bit); or OpenSuSE 11.1 (32 or 64 bit). I do get audio from front speakerphone jack and rearspeaker jacks. Internal speaker audio works fine under PC-BSD and Windows Visa.
Attempted solutions that don't work: followed all directions on Ubuntu howto (per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting); follow "Rob's" directions at http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=Special_Interest_Linux&thread.id=316&view=by_dat... (recompiled and reinstalled ALSA) and most of what's on the SuSE boards (at http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:AudioTroubleshooting).
Anyone using any of these three with working audio on an S10?
Thanks.
mod edit: added "ThinkStation" to title to prevent confusion

hi,
i found a solution at linux-tested
http://www.linux-tested.com/results/lenovo_s10_6423-27u.html
you need only to change the modprobe.d/alsa.conf and add these lines:
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-hda-intel index=0
options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-dig

Wave sound transmitted like a microph

I recently bought a Sound Blaster Audigy SE and I am getting all sounds transmitted when I use Teamspeak. If I am playing a game all the game sounds like guns shooting are transmitted like I have a mic next to external speakers. I updated the sound drivers and it is still there.
These echos are produced by my sound-driver not external speakers. Every sound even system sounds that is played on the computer is rerouted through the sound card. I can turn the sound transmitions off by sliding the WAVE volume to 0 but then I can not hear anything. I got the microphone to stop broadcasting all my sounds in the earphones by following these directions in your knowledge database, "http://dmzweb3.europe.creative.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE/,/?St=252,E=00000000007699908,K=2036,Sxi=7,Case=obj( 2483),Kb=ww_english_add,VARSET=ws:http://us.creative.com/" under the Microphone troubleshooting heading.
How do I prevent the WAVE sound from being picked up and broadcast like it is a microphone sound?

In the mixer software, are you using 'What U Hear' option under the REC section? If you're, change it to Microphone instead.

How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver. Use something like this:

Guide to Installing XP on a Raid Enabled (AHCI) ThinkStation S10

I spent a long time attempting to install Windows XP on my ThinkStation S10 with Raid 5 enabled. This post will detail exactly how to accomplish this process.
Method 1: Using F6 Option During XP Installation (Note: I could not personally get this method to work, therefore, I can’t confirm it.)
1) Download the appropriate Raid drivers for your operating System from lenovo’s support site (ie: “Intel Matrix Storage Manager (RAID) driver for Windows XP”)
2) Copy the files to a floppy disk (highly preferable) or USB drive. If you don’t have a floppy drive on your machine you will have to do the following:
2a) Boot into the BIOS by tapping F1. Navigate to Startup Sequence and move “Diskette Drive A” to the “Excluded from Boot Order” category. Make sure the USB devices are included in the boot order and in the right order. Also, make sure PCI SCSI: Intel VOL01 (this should correspond to your raid volume) is not excluded from the boot order.
For example, my startup sequence is the following:
1: IDE HDD
2: PCI SCSI: Intel VOL01 (this should correspond to your raid volume)
2: IDE CD
3: USB CD
4: USB FDC
5: USB Key
6: USB LS120
7: PCI BEV: P3-HL-DT-STDVD-RAM GSA-H60
3) Enter the BIOS (tap F1) and set the following.
Devices --> IDE Drives Setup --> SATA Raid Enabled: Enabled.
Devices --> IDE Drives Setup --> Native Mode Operation: Automatic
4) After the first Lenovo splash screen, there is a black screen which lists all your hard drives, hit ctrl-I to enter Intel Matrix Storage Manager. Here you can delete and create your raid volumes. Mine was setup with my computer so I left it alone. For more information on configuring your raid volume look for the following documentation on lenovo’s support site: Hardware Maintenance Manual (HMM) - ThinkStation S10.pdf --> Chapter 7. Installing and configuring RAID
Note: Record the information on the top right hand of the screen (ie: ICH 9 and the version number) This information may be needed this when installing the raid driver.
5) Reboot with the inserted XP installation disk. At the very beginning of the windows install process a message on the bottom bar will say "Press F6 if you need to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver." (Be alert to not miss this message.)
5a) Insert the USB stick and follow the instructions, it should ask you to hit “s” to specify additional device.
Note: When I tried this it did not detect my USB stick and wanted a floppy. Maybe someone can confirm how this works? Below are the exact instructions from the “Intel Matrix Storage Manager (RAID) driver for Windows XP (32-bit) - ThinkStation S10” driver readme.txt file.
[Quote]
5.3 Pre-Installation Using the F6 Method.
Note: The Steps 1 and 2 can be skipped if you use the F6 Floppy
      disk utility provided by Intel. This utility can also be
      downloaded from the following website. These methods
      are applicable to systems configured for RAID or
      AHCI mode.
    http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df/Product_Filter.asp?
    ProductID=2101
1. Extract all driver files from the installation package.
    See section 7.2 for instructions on extracting the
    files.
2. Create a floppy* containing the following files in the root
    directory:
    iaAhci.inf, iaAhci.cat,
    iaStor.inf, iaStor.cat,
    iaStor.sys, and
    TxtSetup.oem.
* Note: For Windows Vista you can use a floppy, CD/DVD or USB.
3. For Windows XP or later operating systems:
    - At the beginning of the operating system installation,
     press F6 to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver.
    - When prompted, select 'S' to Specify Additional Device.
    - Continue to step 5.
4. For Windows Vista:
    - During the operating system installation, after selecting the
     location to install Vista, click Load Driver to
install a third
     party SCSI or RAID driver.
    - Continue to step 5.
5. When prompted, insert the media (floppy, CD/DVD
or USB) you
    created in step 2 and press Enter.
6. At this point you should be presented with a selection
    for one of the following depending on your hardware
    version and configuration:
    - Intel(R) 82801IR/IO SATA RAID Controller (Desktop ICH9R)
    - Intel(R) 82801IR/IO SATA AHCI Controller (Desktop ICH9R)
    - Intel(R) 82801HEM SATA RAID Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E)
    - Intel(R) 82801HEM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E)
    - Intel(R) 82801HBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M)
    - Intel(R) 82801HR/HH/HO SATA RAID Controller (Desktop ICH8R)
    - Intel(R) 82801HR/HH/HO SATA AHCI Controller (Desktop ICH8R)
    - Intel(R) 631xESB/632xESB SATA RAID Controller (Workstation ESB2)
    - Intel(R) 82801GHM SATA RAID Controller (Mobile ICH7RM)
    - Intel(R) 82801GBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH7M)
    - Intel(R) 82801GR/GH SATA RAID Controller (Desktop ICH7R/DH)
    - Intel(R) 82801GR/GH SATA AHCI Controller (Desktop ICH7R/DH)
7. Highlight the selection that is appropriate for the
    hardware in your system and press Enter.
8. Press Enter again to continue. Leave the floppy disk in
    the system until the next reboot as the software will
    need to be copied from the floppy disk again when setup
    is copying files.

6) Install XP as normal and everything should work properly.

Method 2: Using nLite to Integrate the Drivers into the XP Install Disk
1) nLite can’t use .exe drivers, rather it needs the un-archive drivers containing the .inf (setup information) file. Therefore, right click on the .exe and select “Extract To…” or “Extract Here” (Note: You will need 7-Zip or WinRar to do this).
1a) When un-archiveing the “Intel Matrix Storage Manager (RAID) driver for Windows XP” you will reach a file with an .IMA extension (ie: F32.IMA). This is an image file so you will need mounting software like Alcohol 52% (Free Edition), UltraISO, Daemon Tools, etc. to extract the .inf file.
1b) Simply install and run any of the above mounting software and open the .IMA file and copy the contents to a folder.
2) Download nLite and follow the guide.
2a) Insert the Windows XP CD and right click “explorer” and copy the files over to a new folder called XP_Source. Then Start nLite and point to the directory where you have XP_Source.
2b) During the “Task Selection” screen select “Integrate Drivers” and “Create a Bootable ISO”
2c) On the “Integrate Drivers” screen click the “insert” tab and search the for the .inf file in the folder where the raid driver is located.
2d) Follow the rest of the nLite setup to your liking until you have the opportunity to make an ISO on the “Create a Bootable ISO” screen. Select the “Make ISO” button and save the file on your computer. Next, burn the ISO to a CD using burning software such as InfraRecorder, CDBurnerXP, Nero, etc.
3) Without loading the CD, boot your system and tap F1 to enter the BIOS. Enable RAID and the following settings:
Devices --> IDE Drives Setup --> SATA Raid Enabled: Enabled.
Devices --> IDE Drives Setup --> Native Mode Operation: Automatic
4) While in the BIOS navigate to Startup Sequence and make sure PCI SCSI: Intel VOL01 (this should correspond to your raid volume) is not excluded from the boot order.
For example, my startup sequence is the following:
1: IDE HDD
2: PCI SCSI: Intel VOL01 (this should correspond to your raid volume)
2: IDE CD
3: USB CD
4: USB FDC
5: USB Key
6: USB LS120
7: PCI BEV: P3-HL-DT-STDVD-RAM GSA-H60
5) Select F10 to save and exit.
6) After the first Lenovo splash screen, there is a black screen which lists all your hard drives, hit ctrl-I to enter Intel Matrix Storage Manager. Here you can delete and create your raid volumes. Mine was setup with my computer so I left it alone. For more information on configuring your raid volume look for the following documentation on lenovo’s support site: Hardware Maintenance Manual (HMM) - ThinkStation S10.pdf --> Chapter 7. Installing and configuring RAID
7) Reboot the machine with the customized Windows XP CD with the integrated drivers and Install XP as normal.

Sound Output Through miniHDMI port

I am trying to link my 13 inch MacBook Pro to my tv so I can watch videos I have on my computer on my TV. I have the mini HDMI cable converter hooked up. I am getting video from the computer to the TV but no sound. I tried a headphone to RCA converter to get sound to the TV and this works if I have the TV source set to AV. However this only sends sound to the TV and not video. And the way the TV source works I cannot select HDMI video input and av sound input. Is there a way I can force sound output through the miniHDMI cable so I can get sound and video through one cable? I would greatly appreciate any information and help anyone can provide.

Hooking up sound modules through MIDI Controllers

I have an Axiom 25 MIDI Controller
and an Alesis QSR sound module.
how can i hook the module up to the axiom then get the sounds out through garageband. I did this once years ago and i just can't remember for the life of me. I have instrument cables, midi cables. I guess i'm not plugging them in in the correct order. This sounds really noobish of me, i know, but i could desperately use some help here. Thanks!

Hi. The only way to get the sounds from the QSR into GarageBand is to record the audio out from the module. You will need to go from MIDI out (using the 5pin MIDI connection not USB) on the Axiom to MIDI in on the QSR. You need to make sure that the QSR is listening to the MIDI channel the Axiom is sending on. You will then need to go from the Main L/R Audio outs on the Alesis into 'something' that GB can listen to. If you have an Audio interface then all good. Set that up as your Input Source in GB's preferences, create a Real Instrument Track, set up the correct input source/channels in GB's info pane and your good to go. If you do not have an Audio interface and are going straight into your computers built in input, then you will need a cable that is suitable to connect the outs from the QSR to the single 3.5mm-1/8" jack that your computer has.
All the best

HT204291 picture shows on my tv when but sound comes through the mac

Can you help?
When I switch on airplay mirroring through my mac book the picture shows fine but the sound comes through my mac and not the TV. Any suggestions?
Thanks

The mac can output sound as an electrical signal or optical from the Audio Out port (the headphone port). You can decide which kind to use based on what your TV takes.
If it has RCA inputs then you should use a cable that is 1/8" jack-to-RCA. :
If the TV has SPD/IF inputs then you will want to get an optical cable (SPDIF on both ends and get the 1/8" adapter):
I hope this helps

Main speaker stopped working. Phone does not ring, sound only through earpiece/headphone. What to do?

main speaker stopped working. Phone does not ring, sound only through earpiece/headphone. What to do?

I spoke to the reseller today and they aggred to exchanged it. They didn't elaborate on the actual cause but thought that it had to be a hardware issue.
It could either be the issue that Euvix suggested or it could be as simple as the outer speaker is simply not working.
Anesi, did you use the phone before the upgrade? Looking at what you've written I take you didn't so I would go back and get it exchanged.

Popping when new sound comes through, with Bose companion speakers.

I've used the Bose companion speakers for years with my 17" PowerBook and they were fine. Now, connected to my new 24" iMac they "pop" just before a new sound comes through, i.e. mail message coming in etc. I've connected them to my husband's 24" iMac and same deal. Apple has no idea why, and it's driving me nuts.

Just came from the Apple store, told the same story to one of the guys there who use to work in a recording studio. He knew what I was talking about. Now I've talked to Apple Care twice, Bose once, no answers. But this guy suggested a USB device, like an iMic which I happened to have so I gave it a try and so far, NO POPPING. I have my fingers crossed, but it seems to be working. I have the speakers plugged into the iMic, the iMic plugged into a USB port.
Bottom line, this is screwed up, I shouldn't have to do this work around. Apple has to know about the problem. But until they own up to it at least now I'm not going nuts with this noise. At least I hope not. I'll post again if I'm wrong.

How can I get rid of the virus transmitted through Skype?

I recently clicked on a bitly virus link, transmitted through my Skype contact. I already ran two antivir programes, but still think that my MacBook Air, doesn`t
run smootly since then. Internet is way slower as normally and the fan suddenly got so loud. Does someone has the same problem and maybe some tips,
what I can do?
Thank you in advance.
Best,

There are currently no know viruses (last I checked) that affect MacOS. There are some trojans. If you've run anti-virus programs and they don't show anything then your problem is something else.
The most recommended (on these forums, anyway) Mac antivirus program is ClamXav. Have you used it?

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
