Windows 10 sound issue HP Pavilion G7

Okay, so on the 29th I updated 2 laptops, one of them an HP G7, to Windows 10 from windows 7. Had very minor issues, including the microphone and webcam not working on it. Haven't found a solution to that one yet, but 2 days ago, a new issue appeared after I rebooted (and I assume a windows update was done). There is a constant sound coming from my speakers that sounds like the computer is about to explode! It is horribly loud and doesn't respond to any sound controls including mute. So I rebooted into safe mode and disabled the speakers in device manager. Rebooted to normal and no noise - no sound at all now of course, but no issue and everything is working fine. Today, Windows did another update so I figured perhaps it had fixed the issue...nope! As soon as I enable the device, boom! Sounds like a super high/fast helocopter has moved into my laptop's case! Scared the heck out of one of my cats it is so loud! So I disabled the driver again, rebooted and noise is gone along with sound capabilities.  So right now no sound, no microphone or webcam working on my computer. Yes, I tried updating the drivers (says they are up to date). Troubleshooting tells me device is disabled (well, duh!).  I also tried uninstalling the audio drivers and reinstalling to no avail.  Devices I've disabled are the IDT high definition audio codec with driver version 6.10.6392.0.  I also disabled the Intel Display audio with driver version 6.14.0.3097 for good measure. I left that one disabled and only tried enabling the IDT though when I still had the big noise this am.  My computer is a Pavilion g7 2070ur I think it is??? (hard to read even with my glasses on ) Its on Windows 10 Home 64 bit and I have 6 GB ram.  Processor is intel core i3-2350m cpu @2.30 ghz  Anyone have ideas???

    I bet the mortgage you have a 40 gig HD. They were weaker than the winner of the weakest weed in the world competition.
    Remove Battery. Switch it on. Firewire it up to your buddy's mac and download everything you need. Get a new HD (80 gig was much better (and quicker)) and you'll be fine and dandy.
    You'll need a new battery too.
    $200 well spent I don't think. Apple should own up to the dreadful HD issues surrounding the 40 gig models - should live 5-6 years, mostly they live 2-3 (according to the repairer that fixed mine after only 18 months of minor use!)

  • Sound Issue HP Pavilion Dv6000 OS:Windows Vista 32-bit

    After setting my notebook up to record vocals from a P.A. the internal speakers and two headphone in jacks are making a continuous, fast paced popping noise. No changes were made to the sound card or operating system previously to setting up the computer to record. The only cable I plugged in to the computer to record was a line in to the microhpone jack from the P.A. which is a setup I use to record guitars as well and have had no previous issues. The guitar amp I line out of is 75 watt amp and the P.A. is 60 watts so I don't think any kind of overload is an issue as to what cause the noise. I set volumes down on everything as a fail-safe before powering on the P.A but soon after I turned it on the speakers started making the noise. I'm unsure of what went wrong exactly but I can only draw two conclusions, either the sound card is fried or the input jacks on the computer shorted out. I disconnected the internal speakers so I can still use the computer without sound. Any help would be greatly appreciated with determining what is causing the noise or how to fix the problem would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

  • 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:
    BIOS

  • Windows Vista Sound Issue

    I have a Dual Dual 2.6 Mac Pro. I've put boot camp on it with Vista 32bit Ultimate.
    For some reason, the only sound I get comes from the internal speaker, not my desktop speakers plugged into the rear audio jack. I looked at the Realtek panel and it doesn't show any speakers connected to the unit. They work fine in OS X. So I tried using the headphone output on the front, sure enough, the panel shows a speaker connection and it works just fine.
    I tried uninstalling the drivers (from the latest Boot Camp package) and reinstalling them, following the reboot instructions. No luck. Tried using the drivers off of the Windows 10.6 disk, still no luck. Tried the recent Boot Camp update, no dice.
    For some reason, the drivers are thinking that the front panel connectors are the only ones on the machine. This includes the Digital In (with no Digital Out on the front panel).
    Like I said, everything works fine in OS X, it's just in Win XP Pro. Realtek drivers from their site don't help either. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I've got the same problem with latency as you. But no idea what to do. Have you tried something out new?

  • HT201541 Mac mini Late 2014 Boot Camp Windows 7 sound issue

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if anyone can help me with my Mac mini (Late 2014) and Boot Camp (Windows 7). The problem I'm having is that there's no audio when I boot into Windows 7, though everything works fine under OS X. After installing Boot Camp and Windows, the audio worked perfectly up until yesterday, and now there's nothing. I've tried updating as well as uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, but this hasn't helped at all.
    When I open Volume Mixer and Playback Devices, the sliders show that audio is playing, but I hear nothing - either from the built-in speaker or when I headphones.
    The Device Status indicates that "This device is working properly" and that the drivers are up to date. Tthe following drivers are installed:
    dmk.sys
    HdAudio.sys
    ksthunk.sys
    portcls.sys
    SysFxUI.dll
    WMALFXGFXDSP.dll
    Has anyone else encountered this issue, or does anyone have any tips on how I might fix this?

    Is the volume Muted? The Mac has an Audio database of devices and volumes in NVRAM, so an SMC Reset or PRAM reset might help. Please see this link for appropriate keys Startup key combinations for Intel-based Macs - Apple Support.

  • Windows 10 Sound issue

    Hello guys, I have a problem when I installed windows 10 and all drivers (chipset, gpu, sound..) I saw I cant install sound blaster cinema to controll my 7.1 surround (5.1 speakers and headphones for gaming).

    i expect msi to pay creative or to get it for free - maybe there is a deal and msi will continue to deliver creative software with new products, and there should not be cut off for products delivered before windows 10.
    i they should be prepared already...

    As stated before in this thread "https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=258935.0" the BIOS on my MSI GE 60 is not working any more, probably because I upgraded to Win 10.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Windows 7 Beats Audio Sound issue

    Hi-
    I am using HP Pavilion dv6 with Windows 7 and has Beats Audio installed.It is about 9-10 months old Couple of times in the last few months, the sound just screached and then the volume on the speakers went down tremendously. I have-
    1. Confirmed that the latest drivers are in place
    2. Confirmed that all audio setting options are set right
    3. Confirmed that the device is working correctly (Through device manager)
    2-3 weeks after the first such instance, the sound came back normal without any setting changes. Now I am facing the same issue-
    1. Sound is very low on- Speaker, headphones and HDMI output
    2. Sound is very low on- Skype, Yahoo messenger
    It appears to be an hardware issue- if anyone has encountered such issue or know of any potential solutions, please share it.

    Thanks for getting back to me with that information!
    I've got a couple of things for you to try. 
    First, try updating to the latest BIOS version F.1C. Download and install F.1C. Your computer will restart on its own during the installation. Allow it to restart and test it for sound issues. If you are still having the problem, move on to the second option.
    2nd Option You have the latest audio driver version 6.10.6381.0 installed. There are two versions listed on your driver page which means some units may work better with one version or the other. Don't make any changes to the BIOS version you just installed, but roll back to the earlier audio driver version.
    To do this:
    Open Device Manager
    Expand Sound, video and game controllers
    Double-click on IDT HD Audio
    Click the Driver tab 
    If the 'Rollback' button is enabled, click that and restart the computer.
    If the 'Rollback' button is not enabled, click Uninstall, do not restart the computer 
    Download and install 6.10.6345.0 offered on this link and restart
    Let me know the results when you get a chance

    when i installed windows 8 in my hp pavilion dv3z notebook pc, the quick launch button of volume is always red and the sound is mute....the driver for quick launch buttons and driver for sound is also up to date....can you please help me?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    When installing the audio driver, was it installed by following the prompts or in compatibility mode as outlined here?
    Based on the Software and Drivers page for this unit, the unit was not tested and certified for Windows 8.  This means that some functionality may not be the same since the unit was not designed for Windows 8.  See this site for information and to find out if it has been tested for Windows 8.
    If the sound driver has not been installed in compatibility mode, then I recommend using the Windows 7 64bit driver found here and using the linked steps above to install it in compatibility mode.

  • Windows 7 Sound Stutter Solution - Fixed my sound issues.

    9Windows 7 Sound Stutter Solution - Fixed my sound issues.= I have had some?stuttering when I installed windows 7 32-bit and the latest SB drivers for my X-Fi XtremeMusic sound card.
    In XP I never experienced this issue before.
    My music?stuttered ?when browsing the web with Explorer 8.
    I made one simple adjustment to my PC in the BIOS.
    I changed the hard disk ?DMA mode from Auto to Ultra DMA 5 and saved the settings.
    Make sure you are not running your hard dri've in?PIO mode. I left my PIO mode to?Auto.
    I have tried to re create the stuttering while browsing by opening several windows in explorer 8, all the stuttering is gone.
    Ultra DMA 5 apperantly enables?the hard disk to operate at? higher data transfer rates which?increases the?performance of your hard dri've.
    My PC is not high end.
    Running Pentium 4 3.2 GHz processor on a Asus Motherboard P4C800-E?Deluxe.
    This solution may fix the sound issues some of you are experiencing.

    = try this web page and see if you have a problem. It crashes my audio before any of the videos finish.
    http://www.vimeo.com/channels/vjhd#77438
    media center music with visualization will crash it too.
    It doesn't suprize me its a bios setting. I think the whole thing has to do with latency and board timing.
    Overall I'm pissed. creative could just come out and say,"Look, the older products are not compatable with windows 7. Go out and buy a new creative windows 7 compatable card" But they haven't. They have said that x-fi is totally compatable with windows 7 and its not. win 7 is out. The RTM has been out for months. They have had time to make drivers. They just haven't done it. I use a lot of audio applications day to day. I'm tired and pissed off about having audio crashs.
    seriously, just release a quick fix with basic sound and worry about all the eax **bleep** later.

  • Strange sound issue on iPad2

    my mom is having odd sound issues on her iPad 2 that i was able to somewhat fix. and it goes from fixed back to broken o.O
    i thought it was interesting and worth mentioning, in case this happens to anyone else.
    her iPad 2 is up to date on the latest iOS (5.0.1) and the issue occured while she was watching a video in YouTube. sound is totally off in all apps. in Settings>General under 'use side switch to' it is set to 'mute'. when going to Settings>General>Sounds the volume control for ringers will work and cause the ringtone to play, so it seems the speaker itself is fine. however it will only work there and for that short time. afterward sound will continue to remain off. the volume control on the side of the unit will bring up the on screen speaker icon, except it doesnt show the bar that usually goes up and down with the volume. and sometimes at the top of the grey box it will say 'sound effects'. ive also tried switching the mute on and off which changes nothing.
    the one thing ive found that changes anything is the multi tasking bar volume control (double clicking the home button and then sliding all the way to the left, where it shows a screen orientation lock, brightness slider and a volume control bar). now the volume control bar is unfilled and doesnt show the dot that you can slide up and down to change the volume. however when i plug the iPad 2 into a computer (any computer seems to cause this) the volume control bar will suddenly fill and the dot will appear. now suddenly sound works in all apps and will change with the side control again as normal.
    now heres where it gets even weirder!!!
    sometimes when unplugging the iPad 2, after a short while volume will slowly fade out and be unresponsive again. the side buttons stop working and the volume control in the multi tasking bar will be unfilled and unresponsive. repeatedly plugging it in, going back to the multi tasking bar volume control and unplugging will eventually bring volume back. a couple times ive gotten volume to stay on and the volume bar to stay responsive by unplugging it while im in the multi tasking bar. but sometimes this is not the case.
    for the record, ive tried 'turning it off and on again' and resetting all settings and erasing all content and settings (both with starting up from a back up on iCloud and PC, and starting up as a new iPad). ive used two different laptops, one with Windows Vista and one with Windows 7. the iPad is synced with one laptop but aside from using iTunes to back it up and for charging, ive not made any changes to the iPad using these devices. during the entire duration of my attempts to fix it, the iPad has been on no lower than 80% power. ive also called Apple and discussed this with an Apple Care representative. who suggested all the same things id already done, and walked me through all the fixes to make sure i didnt skip anything.
    hopefully and most probable is that its just an issue with iOS 5.0.1. i also have an iPad 2 thats up to date with 5.0.1 and ive not had this issue, YET.
    i just thought it would be beneficial to the community to share this issue and get word out that this is happening. i would like to hear everyones thoughts on this issue and if this has happened to anyone else. the Apple Representative that i spoke to had not heard of or had to deal with this issue so it sounds like its rather new or rare. though she did mention that this is not normal behavior for the device and might be a software issue.
    id like to conclude with my love for Apple, and how user friendly iDevices are in general. ive had iPods from the very first generation and all of them still work (though the older ones cant be updated past a certain iOS). the few issues ive ever had were easily fixed with a visit to the Apple Store or searching on the Apple Support Communities. so as with before, i will remain positive and look forward to a bug fix in the next update.
    -thanks in advanced for reading, and any comments

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
