Windows 8.1 IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver

I was cleaning up my programs and accidently uninstalled  IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver. This caused my Beats audio to be uninstalled as well.  Is there a way i can get it back? I have tried installing  IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver from Hp links but it keeps saying "The hardware detected is not supported by this IDT software package. The install will be aborted." Please help.

Hi,
Version 6491 is newer than 6486.
You should have the Beats audio applet in control Panel. The driver includes the Beats audio software. You should have full functionality. Reboot your system and check Control Panel.
My system is a fairly new HP Envy 810-150se. The latest IDT audio codec for my system is 6486.
Where did you obtain Beats version 6491?

  • IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver problem after windows 8.1 update 1.

    Hello. I have HP Probook 4730s. After I installed Windows 8.1 update 1 the sound driver stopped working properly. When I want to play some music, video or even system sounds, sound appears after 1-2 minutes. At that time HDD usage is 100% cause of windows audio device graph isolation. I’ve installed that IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver from HP’s driver support site, but that’s not working. As I see in device manager driver’s release date is 24.10.2012. I think, it’s too old for Windows 8.1. Can you help me? Is there any other newer version of that sound driver? Also I’m sending two pictures where are HDD usage and driver release date.

  • IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver

    The IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver for the HP ENVY 15-j121tx Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) is not compatable with Windows 10 Tech Preview, if you install this driver it will make the microphone inoperatable, If you just use the windows driver the microphone works perfectly. Can HP get onto this issue & make it compatable with Windows 10 please.

  • HP Elitebook 8560p driver update error: IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver

    Hi there,
    Hoping someone can help.. 
    So I tried updating/installing the latest IDT Audio driver for my Elitebook 8560p, but get this error each time:
    I'm pretty sure this is because I stupidly uninstalled IDT soon after getting the laptop.. I did this because I use a seperate audio interface for recording music and didn't want any conflicts. I didn't realize uninstalling this would disable the internal audio entirely (and irreversibly it seems)! My audio still works when I connect my external audio interface, but this is quite annoying as I have to bring the interface with me everywhere, like I can't just watch a Youtube video and listen through internal speaker OR headphone output..I have to hook it up to my interface each time..urgh. My own fault I know, but I would have thought this driver installation package would work and put it back on my system..
    FYI, I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
    I remember reading a thread about this eact same problem ages ago, someone had done the same thing and was having the same problem re-enabling//re-installing it. I think he managed to find a fix that worked for him that involved removing the battery and holding the power button for 30 seconds, or something along those lines.. I remember trying that method by copying his instructions step-by-step, but it didn't work for me
    Anyone else, or any HP tech support know any kind of fix for this? Fingers crosed.
    Many thanks for any help or advice in advance!

  • IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver not installing

    HP Support Assistant asked me to update the drivers and programs and I did so. However, I didn't have time to update all so I updated only a few and restarted my notebook to install them. The IDT HD Audio Driver needed to be updated as all audio stopped playing due to this. I tried downloading the Audio Driver thrice but it would never get installed. It would simply download and installation would fail. Now I can't listen to any audio file. Thanks for the help.

  • Windows 8.1 IDT High Definition Audio Codecfor P7-1421 Driver Missing

    I installed Windows 8.1 on my P7-1421 Pavilion desktop PC on Thursday and now have no sound.  A phone call to HP customer support was unsuccessful in solving my problem, as the rep said HP has no Windows 8.1 IDT High Definition Audio Codec driver for my machine.  Does anyone know if there's a Windows 8.1 audio driver for my PC or if I have a solution other than going back to Windows 8?
    Thank you!

    You're most welcome.
    Sorry that didn't work either.
    Did you try auto updating the driver from the device in the device manager?
    See this thread where another forum member stated he upgraded his PC to W8.1 with the IDT audio chip and he got the driver from Microsoft.
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-Software-Recovery/can-HP-model-number-h8-1414...
    If that doesn't work...
    Just for kicks, see if this generic W7 driver one from Intel works...
    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=19282&keyword=IDT+audio&DownloadType...
    If not, then I guess you'll have to wait as you said, until a driver is released for W8.1.

  • IDT High-Definition HD Audio Beats Audio

    Hi,
    My Pavillion DV7 6B51EA recently had to be restored and I have slowly been working through the issues that this has presented.
    However 2 issues persist but the one that is giving me the most grief is that I can no longer use my bluetooth receiver that is connected to my stereo and I believe that IDT is at fault.
    The CSR software says the 2 items have paired/sinked, the AZIO APTX Bluetooth dongle displays activity that confirms that data is being transmitted and the MASS Audio Bluetooth remains active confirming that is receiving data (it goes into standby if it doesn't receive data and works faultlessly with my iphone and ipad.
    Currently the laptop speakers do not mute handing over the functionality to wireless side of the laptop.
    There are 3 drivers on my laptop with regards to IDT
    High Definition Audio Device - Does not contain BEATS Audio
    IDT High Definition Audio Codec Version 6.10.6329.0 - contains BEATS Audio but the slide controls do not work
    IDT High Definition Audio Codec Version 6.10.6381.0 - contains BEATS Audio but the slide controls do not work
    I have downloaded other IDT drivers following the instructions as given but again they do not work or fail due to not being compatible with the hardware.
    It would appear that I have to find the exact driver for the DV7 6B51EA that may have been downloaded as an update or find a copy of the existing drivers with full functionality but where can they be found for a 4 year old laptop or have I ignored another possibility entirely ?

    Did you do a restore or a recovery?
    You can install the original drivers using the recovery manager. HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)
    If that did not overcome the difficulty, I suggest you do a full recovery back to factory.

    Once that is complete then run the  HP Support Assistant   to acquire any HP updates.
    During the recovery there will be an option to backup your personal files to prevent data loss.  If you have not done one now would be the perfect time.

    Hi,
    My Internal Microphone Array (IDT High Definition Audio Codec) is not working.
    I cannot do Skype calls.
    I have already tried everything but still I'm not able to fix the problem.
    Could you please advice me what to do?
    Could you please provide me with a link with the drivers I may need to reinstall.
    My computer is HP, Windos 8.1, 64-bit operating system, Intel i-7 processor.

    Hey,
    Try installing this driver: IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver
    If that fails, try using the HP Recovery Manager to roll back to the factory installed driver.
    Test after both. Let me know if either option worked.

  • HP Probook 4530s IDT High Definition Audio Codec Speakers

    As the title states:
    HP Probook 4530s
    Windows 7 OS
    IDT High Definition Audio Codec 
    The laptop quit playing through it's speakers, but will play through the headphone jacks when plugged in.  Tolerated it for about 8 months now.  Recently, while playing with it I noticed that if the System is set to headphones and you double click on the slider it begins to play through the laptop speakers for approximately 1 second.  You have to keep double clicking to maintain sound through the speakers.
    Now, when I go to Speakers/HP Properties it shows that the sound is to the bottom 3.5mm jack & front 3.5mm jack.  This laptop has NO bottom 3.5mm jack on it, only the front 3.5mm jack.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, looked for new drivers and thought about installing an old driver but not sure how far back to go.  Any suggestions would be a great help here.  If you need more info please let me know what you need and where to find it and I'll provide it.  Now that I know the speakers actually do work, I'd love to be able to use them again.

    Now to help out with troubleshooting this here is a pic and what I think is going on:
    Notice that the jacks are allegedly on the bottom and front for the speakers, only issue is there is no jack on the bottom and the front jack is for the headphones.  the 10-18-2012 update that HP is tossing around ignores the fact that there is no bottom jack for the HP 4530s, g7, pavilion and dv7.  I've had all of these over the years.  It seems someone wrote a driver that is one size fits all and totally missed that these speakers are located someplace else.
    So the question is, how do we reassign the location so it puts sound to the speakers?

  • HP Pavilion G60-635DX - No Sound in Windows 8 with Conexant Pebble High Definition Smart Audio

    All,
    I would like to report a bug when using the Conexant Pebble High Definition Smart Audio Driver in Windows 8.
    First, a bit of background:
    Product Name/Number - HP Pavilion G60-635DX
    Operating System - Windows 8 Professional x64 (Build 9200)
    Sound Driver / Version - Conexant Pebble High Definition Smart Audio (Version 4.98.60.50)
    BIOS -  Latest version
    This is a unique situation due to the fact that the Conexant sound driver installs fine in Windows 8 and shows all signs that the device is working properly:
    1. You receive a speaker icon (Without red X) on the task bar.
    2. No device conflicts in device manager
    3. Device properties show device is 'Working Properly'
    Here is the issue, I decided to do an in-place upgrade to Windows 8 from Windows 7 and the process went fine, however when I was up and running in Windows 8, I was receiving no audio. I uninstalled and reinstalled the device driver, I uninstalled and reinstalled the sound controller and I also disabled and re-enabled the services that are responsible for Windows sound. I also ran the Microsoft troubleshooting wizard for fixing audio issues in Windows 8. The wizard was unable to find any issues.
    Finally, I decided to do a full wipe/format of the system and install from scratch. This still did not fix the issue. I know for a fact my physical speakers are functioning because they were working in the Windows 7 instance.
    I have been doing research and I'm finding that other people are having similar issues with other Conexant drivers in Windows 8. I call this a bug because the driver shows all signs of compatibility, however no sound is produced.
    I cannot seem to find any solutions to this issue so I have resulted in going back to Windows 7 where my sound is currently working. If there are no solutions to this problem, I would appreciate if an administrator can forward this report to the necessary parties so a solution can be developed.
    Thank you,
    Eric

    I have a G60t-500 CTO and am having the same issue. When I ran the pre-installation check with Microsoft, none of the audio drivers provided an error.  I installed over my Windows7 Pro 64-bit installation and all went well.  Love the new Windows 8 graphics.  But no sound.  Nada.  I looked at the list of beta drivers that was included in the link in the above post but it's the exact same driver that's installed.  So much for that option.  There is no good information online.  You have to dig through a bunch of crap and try to avoid the vendors who want you to buy their driver fixing software package (no thank you very much).
    I did try to do a reinstall of the audio driver.  Windows recommended I set the compatibility to WinXP SP3.  It installed, no errors, but still no sound.  Tried to install to make it compatible with Windows 7 but got the same results ... nothing.
    My laptop is only 4 years old.  I bought it in November, 2008.  I have no intention of buying a new one but if I want to go to Windows 8, it seems I'll have to do that.  I paid the $50 for Win8 Pro AND Media Center.  Now I have to see if I could get my money back (I seriously doubt it).  This is just another ploy to get you to make another computer purchase of you want to upgrade.  Every disappointing.    My husband needs a new laptop.   I'm steering him clear from HP and sending him to Asus (he does NOT want an Apple).

  • XP Drivers for Conexant High Definition Smart Audio 221 - Do they exist?

    I recently purchased a Compaq C776CA and installed XP Home SP3 in order to be comaptable with my software requirements.
    Unfortunately the only drivers that I have been able to find for the sound chipset are Vista drivers, and that means that my microphone is not working.
    Has anyone been able to overcome this?  Are there XP drivers available that I have not been able to discover?
    Compaq Presario C776CA Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 3 GB DDR2 Ram
    Windows XP SP3
    Conexant High Definition Smart Audio 221 Mobile Intel 965 Express Video Chipset

    In an old topic I dug up that it seems XP's SP3 needs an updated UUA driver, I don't know much about that issue but here's the link to it which you may need.
    http://www.dashken.net/uploads/technology/software/XPSP3/Universal_Audio_Architecture_High_Definitio...
    To clarify the rest of what we've covered, you didn't use the device ID I posted but used the one shown in the properties for yours and it still didn't find the device after having installed the MS UAA driver?  I might not have explained it well, some of the driver packages have a different "DEV_####" earlier in the same line which also needs changed, while others don't.
    From the Vista Conexant Audio driver on your system's download page, I got this device & subsystem ID:
    DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30D9
    Unless HP is offering the wrong Vista driver for your system, this should be the one seen in Device Manager, the properties for the HD Audio device. 
    If that is right in the INF file for any of these drivers we've linked, when you run the setup.exe it should find the audio device and install the driver.  Whether or not that device then works has a lot to do if it's the right driver, but it seems to be.  Google turned up a few references of others editing their INF file with the string yours seems to have.
    Here's the 34200 driver with the above dev & subsys ID edited into it, try that.  At worst if it bluescreens the system just boot to safe mode and get rid of it in add/remove programs.
    http://www.mediafire.com/?dvu1tudnljg
    If it doesn't work I'd begin to wonder if part of the Intel chipset driver isn't installed, or if XP's SP3 is causing the problem but perhaps the above linked MS UAA file will take care of that.
    As for the other drivers in their original form, based on the above DEV & SUBSYS numbers, if 5045 and 103C30D9 are correct, we can rule out the first driver both I and Cheryl linked as not possibly working (unless it's edited) since it lists a different pair of strings: DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30CD & DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30D6
    The second driver I linked in my first post to sp35270 also won't work (again assuming the first DEV & SUBSYS #s above are right for your system), unless edited, because it lists DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30A5
    Same for the original sp34200, it lists DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30B7 & DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30BB, but it seemed as close a match as any so it's the one that was edited and on mediafire.

  • CP4 / Windows 7 / IDT High Definition Audio CODEC / No worky

    Hi,
    I just got a new laptop with Windows 7 which has a IDT High Definition Audio CODEC sound card.
    I got Captivate 4 installed and seemly working great... UNTIL I go to record the voice over.  It doesn't recognize my microphone.  It's not that the sound quality is bad - it just doesn't record at all.  No green or red appear when calibrating input.
    I checked and set volume in the sound control panel and it works there.
    I tried to record with Soundbooth and had the same problem.  Doesn't recognize it.  Tired all available drop downs, line in, microphone etc.
    I'm not sure what to do next.
    Anyone run into this before or have any ideas about how to solve this?
    Many thanks,
    Aimee

    FYI - for others who may experience this problem with Win7
    This problem was resolved by a combination of steps.
    1) updating the driver on the sound card to a Win7 compatible
    2) replacing the .dll file in the captivate installation folder (see http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2009/03/audio_play_back_and_usb_mic_is.html)
    I thought the updated .dll file by now would be a part of the CP4 patch but it isn't - so if you experience this problem you need both apply the patch and replace the .dll file.
    Thanks,
    Aimee

  • Windows 10 IDT High Definition Audio Codec doesn't work properly on Hp Envy 20d001-la after update

     I'm using a Windows 10 just updated pc, Hp Envy 20 d001la,  and I'm having problems with my speakers, they work with  IDT High Definition Audio Codec driver. It has beatsAudio available, but the bass don't sound the right way, I can barely hear it. It has a low quality sound...  the worst quality. This problem isn't new for me, when upgraded to Windows 8.1, also the problem apeared, when the driver released with a new version, specificly for Windows 8.1, but how did I solve it? I only installed the Original Audio Controller found on Hp Support & drivers page (It was designed for work on Windows 8 64 bits). So, I know Windows 10 is newer than ever, and sure of some bugs or little corrections after updating. But when I try to install the Windows 8 Original controller to get the extreme sound quality again, it can't be installed. The problem says: "Operating system doesn't has the requirements" The new drivers have low sound quality (driver Windows 8.1 & Windows 10 versions) If I could install the Windows 8 version driver, I'm sure the sound quality returns. Thanks in advance.

    Hi!  Thanks a lot, I've tried the solution you've given me, (extracted the setup file with winrar on a folder and search for the driver as you said) but an error message shows: "There are not compatible drivers on the selected folder, try with one for Windows x64" It happens with both drivers I have, W8 & W8.1 versions. And also I have other problem, I didn't connect the headphones when trying solving the problem, and when I connected them, a surprise: The speakers didn't shutdown, they continue playing sounds and the headphones and speakers were playing sound at the same time. I've checked for the internal connector and The connector is clean. Then I tried to install W8.0 IDT setup manually clicking on the files extracted, the process finished succesfully, and system restarted, the sound quality came again, but still when I connect the headphones, the speakers don't shutdown and sometimes music stops. The problem is with all versions of driver I tried, the W10 got by Windows update, the found on Device Manager, the W8 , W8.1installed manually, But not worked.I hope in a future upade the problem could be solved, because I listen to music always only on headphones to avoid disturb others. Thanks, I'm trying a new method if is kanown for you. Thanks a lot.
