X200 - Sound button problem in Windows 7

Hi,
Recently, I upgraded to Windows 7. I have installed the sound driver from the Lenovo website. The sound is working fine but when I pressed on the mute button to mute the volume, I can't unmute the volume by pressing the button again. The up and down volume control can be used to unmute the volume though.
Please advise. Thanks! (I have already tried to re-install the sound driver)

Hi - I also had the same issue after installing Windows 7 and you can see my post under wjgibbs.
 I became fed up waiting for a reply so contacted a telephone support line. Their response was to type in migr-73721 into google and open the first hit - which takes you to the download page for the conexant sound driver. My guess this is the same driver you had already loaded just as I already had.
Anyway the upshot is this driver does allow you to mute, decrease volume and increase volume but not unmute. Also there is no onscreen graphical indication, which we had when running XP.
I think this is as far as we will get on this.

  • Cirrus Logic CS4206A Sound Driver Problem in Windows 7

    Hi All
    I am having a problem with our Imacs. When we first installed windows 7 on our macs we found that we had no sound on the windows side and i figured out that the wrong drivers where installed so i have got the right driver off the MAC OS disk and i have installed the sound driver manually on our macs.
    This originally fixed the problem but not every so often the sound driver breaks and we have no sound on the windows side. When i diagnose the sound driver is says there is a fix for this please apply this fix. I apply this fix and surprise sound comes back but this keeps on happening and is rather annoying.
    Has anyone had this before and if so has anyone found a fix .
    Thanks

  • Problem with sound buttons on keyboard since upgrading

    Since my upgrade to Mavericks the sound buttons on my keyboard F10,11,12  no longer work. When I press the buttons to either increase or decrease sound, the page I am on disappears from the screen and the mute button diminishes the page but there is no change to the sound.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks for your reply.  I tried your suggestion but I came across this sentence:
    OS X does not store network settings in NVRAM / PRAM. If you are troubleshooting a network issue, resetting it will not help. 
    I am not very technical, I did try some options but I am afraid I couldn't get it to work. :-(

    It also takes time for the photos to be transferred out of your iPhone and into Photo stream on Apple's iCloud servers.
    Note that this can't happen if your iPhone is not connected to a WiFi network:
    When you enable My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your photo stream.
    iOS devices: New photos you take are automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.
    Macs: Any new photos you import to iPhoto or Aperture begin uploading automatically when you have a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. Or you can change your iPhoto or Aperture preferences so that only photos you manually add to My Photo Stream are uploaded.
    PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-1130us IDT HD sound card problem: recording levels too high

    I have been trying to get the IDT HD sound card in my HP Pavilion dv7-1130us laptop to allow me to switch from "microphone" to "Line In" input signal. I cannot find an option anywhere in the laptop do this. There is not a separate Line-In jack on the laptop. The mike jack is it.  
    The reason I'm trying to change the input setting is that I am using Audacity/Lame (the Win 7-compatible Beta version) to convert old cassettes to MP3. My laptop came with Vista but I upgraded to Windows 7 Professional (64-bit) earlier this year.
    The problem is that recording levels are way too high using the mike input and so the recording comes out harsh and distorted. I have tried all possible recording level adjustments on the tape deck (no option), IDT sound card control panel, Windows device manager, etc.
    From what I am reading on the online Audacity forums, using a mike input will cause the recording levels to be too high, and the setting has to be changed to "Line In" and not "microphone." Is there not a way to do that with this laptop and sound card?
    The HP Support Assistant tells me that the driver for my sound card is up-to-date.
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. I've been trying to find a solution on my own for a couple days with no luck.

    Hi Amanda,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp52501-53000/sp52658.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

     Hi,
    Try the following.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the notebook.
    Next, download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
    Launch Firefox and see if videos etc play Ok in this browser - if they do, close Firefox, open Internet Explorer and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component.  When done, restart Internet Explorer.

    It sounds like my problem was very similar to tlee's.
    All it took was doing a cold reboot, I found the solution here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Hardware/HP-dv4-1225d​x-Quick-Launch-Button-Problems/m-p/272053#M29072
    When tech support couldnt fix it I asked for the number to call and return my laptop. Finding that thread changed my mind.

  • Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

    First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation  worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
    (Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
    it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w,  deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
    and
    then
    I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)"  from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
    The values I filled for
    1) Global Database Name :  orcl
    2) System Identifier : orcl
    3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
    4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
    5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
    6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
    Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
    Username : sys/ as sysdba
    Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
    After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

    Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
    Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

  • Problems with Windows XP SP3 in Boot Camp

    Hi,
    I have recently received a 21.5" iMac; it is the higher-end of the 21.5" standard configurations. The problems I am having, I believe, specifically relate to drivers.
    Firstly, I get no sound whatsoever in Windows XP SP3 (boot camp); I have tried removing and reinstalling the drivers from the Snow Leopard install disc, but no success. I have no yellow question marks in the device manager window, but the absence of audio still persists.
    Secondly, I cannot gain access to the special functions of the Apple wireless keyboard in Windows XP SP3 via Boot Camp. Again, I have tried reinstalling the drivers, but no success. I have read an Apple support document which states that the keys are only supported on late 2009 Macs; I own one of these Macs, so that cannot be the problem.

  • No sound after upgrading to Windows 7 M55-S3293

    I upgraded to Windows 7 and installed the drivers from Toshiba for my sound card and before installing checked the windows XP box under the compatibility tab.  No sound.  I did windows update for this driver and it installed an updated driver.  No sound.  I went to Realtek and installed the windows 7 generic driver for this sound card (thats all manufacturer's offer is a generic driver) and LOW sound.  Now I rebooted and back to No sound. 
    Before windows 7 sound, after no sound. 
    Toshiba put out a fix for a contextant audio driver for the low sound problem to be corrected with windows 7 but I cannot find anything for my computer. 
    I don't know know what to do!  I don't want to go back to using XP but sound is REALLY important.  I would think this is an integrated sound card (Toshiba isn't making service manuals public anymore, it was there the other day and gone today) so I cannot remove it.  I don't think I have any available PCI slots to install a new one internally and I don't want extrenal speakers since I do a lot of traveling.  
    Is there a fix I don't know about?  What can I do?  Please HELP!!!

    Hi Ryan,
    Go here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/downloadDetail.jsp?soid=1671893&pf=true
    and download the software called "Sound Utility to Turn Mute Off After Upgrading to Vista", it is made for people that upgrade to VISTA, however, once you have all your Toshiba updates installed by downloading the Toshiba updates, then apply this update to your Windows7 system and the problem will resolve.
    I don't know why they did not make this update part of the Toshiba Update Package.
    I hope this helps,
    best,
    Alejandro

  • IPod/iTunes problems on Windows XP

    Now equiped with 5G iPods, my wife and I tried putting our photo album onto them. We have separate Windows XP logins.
    Problem 1: Using the same photo directory was impossible: the "iPod Photo Cache" that is created there is write-protected against users other than the creator. Couldn't it be made shareable, or else created elsewhere than in the shared photo directory root (as is the iTunes music library)?
    Problem 2: All our music files are on an external USB hard drive. Up until now, this drive did not need to be connected for me to sync the iPod with the podcasts in my music directory. It would just claim it couldn't find the disconnected files. I decided (given problem 1) to put a copy of our photos on the external drive too. When I tried sync'ing without the drive attached, iTunes got stuck in a busy-loop, using up all the CPU of the machine. I had to kill the process. I copied the photos back to the PC's internal disk, attached the external drive, reconfigured to point to the internal drive and sync'ed. All OK. Then I sync'ed without the external drive being there: looping again!
    Problem 3: Windows XP has a much too simplistic approach to assigning drive letters. Even if you use the Computer Management -> Disk Management tool (accessible via the Control Panel's Administrative Tools) to assign a particular drive letter to an external drive, Windows is only too happy using that letter for another, non-assigned drive. Unfortunately, I loaded my songs into the iTunes library when the external drive was labelled G, the first free drive letter on my machine. Short of deleting the library and starting again (something I don't want to do), there is no way I can see to repoint the library references as a group (you can do it file-by-file, but that's incredibly slow and frustrating for even a single directory/album; forget a collection of 6000 songs!). Can this be scripted in some way on XP?
    Thanks for any help/suggestions/fixes to iTunes!
    Sony VAIO VGN-A190   Windows XP  

    I have no idea. It is not listed in any App articles and a Google search did not even find a hit for the error number.
    All I can suggest is:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

  • Problem loading window component more than once

    I have a swf with a button that opens a window component
    (from my library). it loads fine and also closes fine when I click
    the close button in the window. but when I try to open the window
    again, it actually loads again, but it stalls and locks up
    immediatley. can anybody tell me what is wrong with my code? I also
    was going to have different buttons to open different windows (each
    swf playing a song and has written lyrics). it does the same thing
    when i load the first window, close it, then try to open a second
    window. it stalls and locks up.
    please, I really need some help!

    Ok it sort of works... here is my code:
    on (release) {
    trace("button works");
    win.title = "Yellow Birthday Package";
    win.closeButton = true;
    win.contentPath = "yellowPack";
    win.setSize(550,500);
    var listener:Object = new Object();
    listener.click = function(){
    win._visible = false;
    win.addEventListener("click",listener);
    It order to make it work, the window component has to be on the stage but i want it to popup only when the user clicks on the button. So the window should be hidden/invisible when the page first loads. I tried changing win._visible = true; but that did nothing.
    The other problem is that the movie clip inside the window, isnt aligning center. i can only see a corner of the movie clip. in the top left. I havent tested the whole thing live though!

  • Solved Crackling Problem in Windows 7 (SB 24-bit USB External, HP Pavilion dv6 1124-ca laptop).

    I'm one of many users who has had problems with the sound crackling problem with their sound card after upgrading to Windows 7.
    I was previously on Windows Vista running 5. with 24-bit, 96000Hz sample rate Studio Quality with no problems at all. When I upgraded to Windows 7 RC, Windows was able to automatically find a driver for my external USB sound card, but when playing music, I always got a constant crackling sound coming from the speakers while trying to put the card in anything above 2. or and when putting it in 24-bit 96000Hz, the crackling only got worse. Installing the Beta drivers on the Creative site didn't work either... still had the crackling. I searched around for the past several months for solutions to no avail.
    Then today, I was surfing the HP website (I have a HP Pavilion dv6 24-ca laptop) to see if they had added Windows 7 drivers to their support site and they did... and so I started downloading all available Windows 7 drivers for my specific laptop. When I first installed Windows 7 RC, it had installed it's own drivers for everything (on-board sound etc.). After replacing the Windows 7 installed "High Definition Audio Device" drivers with the HP supplied "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC" drivers... I'm not sure if the on board sound driver has anything at all to do with the crackling on the Soundblaster but I replaced the drivers anyway. I also installed another driver called "AMD USB Filter" that was supplied by the HP website for Windows 7 which is another driver that I thought might help with the problem. Other drivers installed were "ENE CIR Reciever Driver" and "Realtek Card Reader Driver" but those have nothing to do with the sound card.
    After installing the drivers from the HP website, I no longer get the crackling from the speakers when playing in 5.. I am also now able to select 24-bit 96000Hz sample rate without crackling as well I am very happy to have finally solved the problem. So to anyone having similar problems, I suggest you check out your manufacturers website to see if they have any drivers available for you... I have a feeling the AMD USB Filter is what solved the problem... but who knows.
    Hope this helps other HP users!

    If you can hear the music through the speakers but not the headphones I would suggest using an AUX cable because seems the sound isn't being transmitted over.
    Just a friendly note here. Don't buy the wireless turtle beaches I have the x32s and I'm continuously buying batteries !
