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?

  • Creative Audigy 2 and Windows Vista: Sound volume turns down when I try to turn it

    I have a strange problem with my audio in Vista. I have a Creative Audigy 2 and Creative 6700 speakers. My full system specification is below but please note I did not have this issue in my previous Vista build - its only happening since I did a reinstall. Anyway, when I swich on the speakers using the remote control unit for the 6700 speakers the sound comes on but then it turns down. I have to then increase the volume by a large amount for it to start playing sound again and then turn it down to listening volume. This issue is not application specific - it happens in everything: Winamp, WMP, games, etc etc?I'm using [color="#000000"]Creative Sound Blaster Audigy series Vista Driver 2.2.0002 and I've tried reinstall several times. I've tried doing diagnostic startup etc using msconfig in case something was conflicting and its still happening.

    Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
    2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
    If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    Good luck

  • Windows Vista - Sound Blaster 24 Bit Usb - No Microphone Playback Real Time Kara

    Hi,
    I don't no if this problem was just discussed in another thread, if so please giveme simply the link...
    I'm Italian, so sorry for my poor english or bad translation...
    PC: Laptop, "Toshiba Satellite A 200 24E"
    OS: "Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack " - All update done.
    Dev.: "External Sound Blaster 24 Bit Usb" - Driver downloaded from Creative Web Site
    At the very beginning I tried the internal Sound Card (Realtek) to do karaoke in spare time, but couldn't hear anything coming from Microphone. So I tried to buy an external sound card. The result is the same.
    On "Record Device" I can see the Microphone Device, the level is on top, when I speak in the microphone I can see the green bar light up, if I record my voice I can hear myself when I playback, but no sound in real time.
    I read that a lot of people have similar problems, but everone solves in a different manner...
    I tried:
    - I read in other forums advices about to do something like unmute microphone on "Audio playback devices" >> "Speaker" >> "Levels", but I don't see any checkbox, I can see only Speaker Level Bar...
    - As read in other websites, to add a registry key (something like EnableInputMonitor in a specific path), but nothing changes. I cannot find other Device, not in Playback Devices, and not in Record Devices.
    Please help, all was great with the same microphone, on old Packard Bell Laptop, old Sound Blaster mp3+ usb, and old Windows Xp.
    If no solution, I 'm going on buy an old laptop with Windows xp, or an external Mixer, but I'm disappointed on spending more money...

    well ?

  • ITunes 7.3.2.6 and Windows Vista Performance Issues

    I recently purchased an 80GB iPod, and downloaded iTunes promptly, disregarding all the negative attention about how "iTunes crashes your computer" or "iTunes kills Windows". So far, the only real problem I've had with iTunes is the amazingly poor performance it has on my computer. When iTunes is minimized to the system tray, or compressed into Mini Player mode, it runs better, but not well.
    Running in the full mode, the player bogs down my computer substantially. Knowing my laptop isn't a powerhouse, I expected a slight bit of slowdown, since there is some evident with QuickTime.
    UPDATE: I've just stumbled across something. Apparently, wiggling my mouse over the iTunes program, iTunes runs about two or three times faster. The moment I stop moving the mouse cursor over the window, the speeds return to slow. It seems to only do this during the "Processing Album Artwork" phase. Bizarre? Very. Any explanations?
    I find this to be very annoying, especially when syncing. Syncing my library (which is about five or six gigabytes) takes an amazingly long time. Are there any workarounds, registry hacks, or anything else that can be done? Thanks!

    Do you have ReadyBoost enabled on the PC? If so, by way of experiment, try disabling that as per the instructions from the following document:
    Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista video playback performance issues
    ... any help at all with the performance issues?

  • Satellite A200-23W: Windows Vista installation issue

    Hi..
    I now that this subject is discussed many times before, but after trying a lot of the solutions of the forum and some of my one, I have reached a level that it makes no sense...
    First off all I would like to explain that what i do for a living it has to do with IT and that is what it makes it even more tempting to me.
    2 days ago a bought a A200-23W Toshiba. The first thing i always do when i buy a new laptop is to format it and install a clean Windows OS.
    I realized after my first attempt that I have to install first of all the Matrix Storage Driver.
    I have downloaded the driver from toshiba site related to my model. (Intel Matrix Storage Manager-7.5.0.1017).
    I have created a usb with the required files for the driver :
    iaAhci.inf,
    iaAhci.cat,
    iaStor.inf, iaStor.cat,
    iaStor.sys, and
    TxtSetup.oem
    from the (F6flpy) folder of the (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) copying them to the root of the USB.
    When the "Where you want to Install windows" form at windows vista appear i select load driver, and then by Clicking (Browse), I select the USB as a source for my drivers.
    The (Intel(R) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller) automatically appears as a selection and by clicking (Next) the process of driver installation starts.
    So far so good..
    Now is where the things are getting complicated..
    When Vista return to the "Where you want to Install windows" form, even that my system has 2 x 200 GG HDD only one 200 GB HDD appears in the list..
    Selections of "New" Partition or "Delete" Partition are disabled.
    and even when i click "Next" to the selected HD a windows message appears :
    "Windows could not determine if this computer contains a valid system volume"
    I would appreciate your help..
    Thank you in advance..
    George P.

    it seems i can't find any installation details about the Robson Package inside the zip file or the European site..
    All the readme inside have the same content..
    "...This installer does not contain a valid readme
    file. Please obtain the valid readme file(s) from the
    software site this installer was downloaded from."
    And at the europian site the downloaded page :

  • Laptop sounds like it is going to explode! 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!)
    Music to Dell's Vista loving ears no doubt!

  • ITunes 8 and Windows Vista "sound effect"

    So ever since iTunes 8 came out, I get that stupid annoying sound effect whenever doing anything in iTunes. I can turn off the sidebar and it will stop for the most part, but I still get it when going to the iTunes Store or going to my iPod list. I was hoping 8.0.1 would fix it, but it did not. I have searched the forums and I have disabled the TableInputService and that didn't help at all. Has anyone else found a different solution?

    I have a similar problem, with my new iPod Touch crashing an XP Professional setup. It's worth noting that the Apple article also talks about potential USB conflicts with other devices on the system that might have bad drivers. They say the solution, if that is the fault, is to make sure all your USB drivers are good. I'll try that, by a process of elimination, before re-installing iTunes (as I thought I had the latest version and I don't have Vista). I'll come back here later to report the outcome.
    (serious if your iPod crashed your PC - can't even charge its battery ! )

  • 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 Vista Network Issues when updating Podcasts

    Hi there,
    Since upgrading to VISTA i am experiencing countless problems with my internet connection when using iTunes. Using iTunes normally does not cause a problem however as soon as iTunes store downloads updated podcasts, my network connection disconnects. The podcasts only download partially and then fail as a result of my network issues. I am unable to repair my wireless network connection at this point and it appears that my wireless card disables completely. I have to reboot to resolve the issue.
    Has anyone else experienced this? I am using the latest version of iTunes.
    Are there any fixes?
    Many thanks,

    Try turning off firewalls, pop-up blockers, software accelerators, and security software.
    Can you connect with everything temporarily turned off?

  • ITunes iPhone and Windows Vista - Syncing Issue

    I was trying to upload 2 new albums I have and it seems it re-synced my whole music library to my iphone.
    Is there a video or something I can watch that shows how to use iTunes correctly, and to sync new songs without having to re-sync the whole entire library to my iPhone.
    Thanks.
    Black MacBook, 2.0GHz Core Duo, 1GB Ram, 80GB, Superdrive   Mac OS X (10.4.10)   8GB iPhone

    There really isnt much to syncing music. I have read several posts of folks complaining that making a simple change to one song caused the entire library to resync.
    Suggestion - turn off automatic syncing when you plug your iPhone. Then choose Sync only selected items, and then select all your music. Sync. Then make a change to one song and manually sync again. See if only that one song syncs.
