Windows 7 on e9280t has issues with Realtek HD audio drivers

This is driving me crazy. My PC runs great, but there is obviously an issue with the drivers for Realtek and Win 7. Sometimes I have sound, sometimes I don't. You just never know. Most of the time it doesn't even register that I have speakers. I've tried downloaded the driver from the HP site. I've also tried downloading the driver from Realtek's site. Nothing has worked yet. Still no sound. Anyone have any clue what might be causing this, or if there is a fix in the works?

Try this.  Right click on the Audio icon in the tray.  Then, click  Properties.  This opens the 'Sounds and Audio Devices Properties'.  Check all of the settings to assure they are correct.  You may have to change the settings one at a time to see if one of them does the trick.  When I have had a problem with the speakers not being recognized, it was incorrect speakers chosen.

  • Having issues with Realtek HD Audio Manager, need help

    Sorry if I am in the wrong section for this,
    I just got a Z87-G45 MB (v1.10) latest is: 1.30 which has the Realtek HD Audio onboard, now to the problem:
    I have the Logitech Z906 speakers which is a 5.1 setup and I have them plugged through the Digital S-PDIF/out on the back panel (Green) but the problem is, the computer isn't detecting the speakers and since it doesn't detect them, I don't have the option tab to manage the audio settings in the Realtek HD Audio Manager Control Panel so that I can set it to 5.1/2.1/quad, etc. Even when I disconnect/connet the digital cable, it doesn't detect that it's been disconnected/connected and the speakers appear as "Ready" in the Playback Devices menu .
    Another problem I have is that there's audio, but the audio level is way too low, even at 100% and I think this has to do with me not being able to set up Realtek to 5.1.
    When I plugged my headphones through the front panel, everything worked fine and the option to set up the audio for stereo, etc. appeared.
    I did a rollback on the Realtek HD Audio Drivers
    Current: 6.0.1.6873
    Latest: 6.0.1.6959
    Things I've done:
    1.Re-install Realtek drivers from motherboard CD
    2.Update drivers
    3.Disconnect/connect the cable to see if the computer would recognize it
    4.Check the Playback Devices, choose Digital SPDIF green as default
    5.Turned off all enhancements
    6.Set the Realtek Digital Audio level to 100% in the properties tab
    I'll provide some screenshots of what I see:
    What I should be able to see:

    I recently bought some new albums and can't play them on my ipod

    I just encountered the same problem on my 2 month old MBPro.  I found a work around by changing USB ports.  As for the actual cause or the reason why that worked, I dont know.  The USB port I was using works fine with my phone or other USB devices.

    Hi clintfromid,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend closing all your apps and restarting and maybe resetting as good initial troubleshooting steps for this:

    hi,
    my magic trackpad has issue with 3 finger swipe between applications or swipe issue after OS X 10.8.1 update.
    Anyone facing the same issue? Thanks.

    Did you check System Preferences - Trackpad ? Also I'm not sure exactly what 3 fingered swipe are you referring to?

  • Lion / Safari 5.1 has issues with the pinch/zoom (embedded links don't zoom correctly)

    Ever since upgrading to Lion Safari 5.1 has issues with the pinch/zoom.  Any embedded link does not zoom in proportion to the surrounding page and it makes it unusable. (the embedded link zooms much more).  Any ideas?  This makes safari almost unusable for many webpages.
    Is there a fix to this?  Or can I consider uninstalling 5.1 and rolling Safari back to 5.05?  Not sure if this is a Lion issue or a Safari issue.  Everything worked great prior to Lion. 
    (I have to say, Lion has been more annoying than beneficial to this point!)

    Here are 2 screenshots of the issue (before and after a zoom)  see how the add in the first one that shows 25% off in the first picture zoomed too large after the zoom to see the whole thing?

  • My sound is like echo and i can't solve the problem with realtek hd audio manager

    HP G72 notebook
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Sound is like echo and can't solve problem with Realtek HD audio manager

    It's a Qosmio X300-16M (windows 7 64bit)
    I downloaded the last toshiba's sound driver (for win 7 64bit), but it's as if it doesn't contain MaxxAudio anymore... (but the file maxxaudio.dll is still in realtek directory)
    It worked correctly after Windows 7 update, (that's why I tried to reinstall the audio drivers which were in the DVD... but it does not have resolved the problem.)
    And all my system restore's points have been lost after a wrong bios update or something else (but this isn't a problem anymore)
    Now, my computer works correctly, my only problem is that the MaxxAudio tab (from Waves Audio) in the realtek audio manager disappeared... (It just makes a better sound...)
    And I just want to know if it's a curent problem or not... and if someone can fix it

  • How to disable one Audio port on MSI MB with Realtek HD Audio

    Hello MIS gurus.
    I have MSI p45t-c51 MBoard with ALC889 Audio chipset. On this board i installed Win XP Pro with Realtek HD Audio Driver 5.10.0.6101.
    On back audio plate i use Edifier 2.1 audio over one of the audio port's and HeadPhones over another one.
    My question is: Is it possible to disable one of the ports so the sound only come from 1 of the audio devices instead of both.
    At this moment, what i do is in the Realtek HD Audio Manager, i set LINE IN for the device i do not want to hear. - Advice if that is bad for the device that is plugged in at that port!
    Thanks to all.
    Regards.

    Just disable the Onboard Audio from BIOS.

  • Realtek HD audio drivers

    I installed my hardware (new build), then set CMOS, then installed OS with no issues. I then installed ATI chipset, cpu, and Realtek LAN drivers with no problem. (I did reboot between installations) I then installed Realtek HD audio drivers. After restarting, no icon for the Realtek audio program appeared in my system tray. The audio does not function. The audio device does not show up in the control panel, in the volume control as an installed device, nor in the device manager. I did make sure that the audio device in enabled within the BIOS. I did update all the drivers and the BIOS through Liveupdate 3. This has not fixed my problem. How do I fix the Realtek HD Audio so I have sound on my system? Help!

  • Cannot use min-max-close buttons in top of screen after loading new web page, also has issues with videos. Does work fine oddly after shrinking the window and re-opening it from the taskbar...

    Issues with firefox where it wouldn't respond to above mentioned tasks, its like its clicking through the browser sometimes to screens behind it, or with drop down menus, it opens the menu up, but you click an option and it'll click on whatever the drop down menu is cover up. My computer has been running rather ragged lately which makes me think its a virus, I do have anti-virus and have tried a couple of programs to clean whatever it is up. I've also tried reinstalling firefox and that doesn't seem to help either.

    In Firefox 4 and later Safe mode disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
    Try to disable hardware acceleration.

    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • How to troubleshoot Windows 8 Mail app connectivity issues with Google Business Apps?

    My company went to Google Apps last year. I am unable to connect Mail App on Windows 8 to my corporate Google account. I am using m.google.com for server with SSL enabled, but no luck. I also enabled bit locker as my company policy requires device encryption.
    Mail App does not give a clear error message. It simple states that this PC does not meet security policies enforced by Google. Please advice. I already made peace when my Nokia Lumia 920 running windows phone 8 does not connect to Google
    apps because of a bug that would not turn on device encryption unless requested by Active Sync and it would not turn on with Google sync.
    These are annoying issues that Microsoft must fix to gain enterprise support. Here are the settings from my mobile settings page:

    Answer is of no use. I tried all the forums and websites. I am not able to connect to corporate google apps because it requires SD card encryption. How do I enable this on windows 8.
    Please discuss this with your boss and other peers before answering. This is an advanced question. I am going to paint this a little bit more..
    Today's enterprise requires that most devices support device encryption and Windows Phone does support device encryption but here is the problem- there is no support for SD card encryption. Even for phones like Lumia 920 that does not have an SD card cannot
    connect to Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync due to a bug in the implementation.
    When the policy parameter Require Encryption on Storage Card is enabled, Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 devices misreport the presence of an SD card, even if the device has no SD card slot. The policy enforcement occurs, provisioning fails, and the device
    cannot be synchronized.  You can read more on their support site:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2464593
    This long thread on the Microsoft community is a testament to this problem:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/e...3ce3-49e4-8069-ecdccd55a5f9
    This is also a problem for those enterprises that are using google apps and running Microsoft exchange activesync. Take a look at this request and policy that will throw the 85010013 error on your windows phone.
    Request :

    Overall, I hope Microsoft fixes this issue soon

    Yep didn't work. Still get drops all the time, had to run a Cat 5E cable to my laptop from my modem, because I have Atheros Gigabyte Lan adaptor. Works Great. The Wireless still drops all the time. Has Microsoft let out the patch to fix this or is it coming in
    April in the 8.1 patch that's coming. Funny thing is all for Widi, I don't even use widi, I got the software to do that from Samsung works better on my TV. Intel and Microsoft need to get this fixed. because their driving off gamers and that's the
    people that make sure they buy Microsoft so they can play games. With the wireless link dead and a great laptop worthless what's the point. Ive been in IT for 13 years building PCs  and Servers how I knew how to run a 60 FT Cat 5e line thru
    a 2 story house and terminate it. Most people don't. Fix the problem.  

  • Latest 12.1.1.4 itune updates has issues with syncing to iPhone 6 Plus

    I was one of those folks wary of upgrading to iTunes 12 at first but once I did I actually liked it. I especially liked the fact that my frequent syncing problems seemed to have gone away.
    Sadly, these problems came back with 12.1.1.4. For the life of me, the latest iTunes version would not recognize my iPhone 6 Plus or it did but when you tried to apply a sync, it lost visibility of my phone.
    In exasperation I tried to get the older version from the Apple Website but for reasons that boggle my mind, they no longer had the 64 bit version of 12.0.1. Only the 32 bit version which would not install on my 64 bit Windows 8 OS.
    I was able to find  a 64 bit version of 12.0.1 on some other site I found while googling (and this is why I have a virus checker. :-P) and re-installing that worked great. As soon as I ran it, it recognized my iPhone and I could sync like a fiend.
    Has anyone come across this issue with 12.1.1.4? I am staying pat with 12.0.1 until Apple fixes the issue.
    I know that bugs will happen in software but given the level of importance of syncing ones phone, this really is a feature that needs to be rock solid. Not only that, but the older versions of the software really need to be properly available on the Apple Web site.

  • Windows 8.1 "PlayTo" protocol issues with Satellite Z930-12Q

    Hi,
    I've bought my Toshiba Satellite Z930 more than a year ago. I quickly realise than I didn't had much network possibilities than before with older windows such as the possibility to create a wifi network. Never more...
    And recently I had an update on my internet Box allowing me to use the "Play To" system of windows. GREAT ! I tried to use it but it didn't work. I first thought that it was my box that was malfunctioning but with another PC it works well !!
    So I'm starting to wonder if their is a network issue on my computer ? Or maybe, is the windows installed version is a light one ?
    Does anyone knows anything about it ?

    >So why am I the only one in France that can't use the Windows "PlayTo" protocol on my internet access box (freebox) connected to my TV?
    The Play To streaming function within Windows 8 has been designed and added by Microsoft.
    I think you should refer this question to the Microsoft people and additionally to the Freebox support since this question isnt related to the notebook.
    From my knowledge the Play To protocol in Windows 8 is designed to work with _Windows certified_ Play To devices. In case your freebox isnt certified by Microsoft, the Play to will not work.
    I recommend you checking the Microsoft Blog artickle about enabling [great Play To experiences from your Windows 8 apps (and websites!)|http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsappdev/archive/2012/11/16/enabling-great-play-to-experiences-from-your-windows-8-apps-and-websites.aspx]
