HP Pavilion a6214x desktop - sound no longer works.

I upgraded Windows 7 SP1 from Windows Vista (that came with the computer). Functioning very well working after the upgrade, but recently stopped. I don't have speakers, so I'm interested to troubleshooting problems of his helmet.

I tried different helmet and different takes, but no luck. HP website does not sound any BIOS update available for my computer.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

If you have still no sound, open windows control panel, open administrative tools, and then open Services.  Verify that the following services are all showing that status = started and the Startup Type = Automatic

Audio service

Multimedia class Scheduler

Windows Audio

Windows Audio endpoint Builder

If you need to make a change to one of the above, just right-click the service and select Properties, and then in the drop-down list box next to "Startup Type", select automatic and click on apply to save the changes.  Then click on the Start button.

  • My sound no longer works on my HP dv6-1280us

    It's just a couple of months but my sound no longer works.  I don't know much about laptops, but here's what I know.

    It stopped working about 10 days ago.  Initially, there was no sound, but I could the volume up and down with the Quick Launch button and the mute button would go from red to blue when they are affected.  I checked to make sure that nothing was cut, and everything seemed to go well.

    I googled the problem and he said to do a restore system back before it stopped working.  I tried several times and it went through the process, but then when it restarts it said that it did not work and that none of the parameters have worked.

    Then a few hours ago, I noticed the button mute is now red and won't change to blue the volume slider does not touch is.

    Then I saw a post here that says to go to the recovery of the system and reinstall the sound led (IDT High Definition CODEC) and I did, and he said that this was the case, but it does not solve the problem.

    I'm lost and would like to help if someone has any ideas?  Please?

    Thank you

    I got help from a friend, and his advice worked.  I thought I would post this for others having problems

    Well, I guess you can try that it wouldn't hurt. Assuming you are using Windows, that is.
    Go to run and type services.msc when the box appears scroll down to Windows Audio and double-click. Make sure that the service is started.

    My Shortcuts no longer work on any of the acc on my computer please hlp? !!

    Hi Ktoffetti,

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. What happens when you try to access the shortcut on the desktop?

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then check if the problem persists in the safe mode and after return with the result.

    Method 3

    If the problem persists in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • My built-in webcam on my HP Pavilion TouchSmart desktop computer will not work on all programs, online or offline and will not display on my computer.

    My built-in webcam on my HP Pavilion TouchSmart desktop PC, product #: FK935AA-ABG, model #: IQ515a, does not work, that is to say, it does not appear on my computer as a work/usable/functional/real webcam. The green light next to the real webcam above the screen doesn't flash or turn on (there is no light indicating that it is not on). I don't know how to activate it or make it work. On Windows Live Messenger, the name of my webcam does not appear on the drop-down list, and I want to know why it does not appear only on MSN but Skype, HP TouchSmart, YouCam and other online and offline programs.

  • Updated to OSX 10.9 Mavericks - sounds no longer work?

    When I try even just move the cursor, a terrible corrupted sound starts and will not stop until I get force close Flash.

    Any ideas?

  • Random sound no longer works

    Got windows 7 for a while. The sound just stopped working randomly. I can see her on the volume bar, but it is simply not get out my speakers.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled soundmax drivers, but still no sound.  I checked for similar problems, but other issues seem to happen just as people upgrade to windows 7.  My sound worked fine on windows 7 and it just seems to stop working out of no where. I don't know what it could be.   I have Windows 7 Home premium.

    Hello Vishal11111,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

    To better help, please give the make and model of your PC. Please also relay the exact model of the audio device installed.  In addition, you can check that the last device audio driver compatible Windows 7 provided by the manufacturer of your audio device is installed.

    You can also check that the speakers are set as a default playback device. To do this, right click on the speaker icon in the taskbar, and then click playback devices. Then click the pregnant, do a right click and then click on set as default device and then click OK.

I uninstall that I listed in the audio, video and game controllers first and reboot the laptop. Then download the driver Audio IDT high definition (HD).

    You can try:

    1. a click right icon "speaker" (right)
    2. Select playback device
    3. click right speakers
    4 activate and as default
    5. click apply/OK

    Here is a link to troubleshoot the sound.

    Please let me know how it goes.

    Thank you.

    I removed the virus redirects google and after that my sound stopped working.  Windows player media displays the following error message - windows media player has encountered a problem while playing the file.  YouTube or any what other video games, but there is no sound.

    I tried to turn off my Windows media player and turn it back on and also all of the troubleshooting options provided by MS does not.

  • Upgrade to El Capitan: MS Wireless Desktop Elite no longer works correctly.

    I installed my rMBP to El Capitan. I have a keyboard/mouse MS Wireless Desktop Elite that I like to use and use for years, and this upgrade broke the driver software such as

    • It allows me to no longer share Win/Alt keys (so that the key used as Cmd is in the usual position of the Cmd key)
    • My shortcuts are gone
    • side buttons of my mouse no longer act like 'Before' and 'Back', or seem to do anything at all

    What should I do to get this feature?

    It seems that MS only provides drivers for 10.4 to 10.7

  • Satellite L50D-B - 13 c - sound no longer works

    I have problems with the sound on my laptop.

    He worked at first, but whenever I moved the laptop, or my hand caught the HDMI slot on the right, it should stop and after a while again.

    Now, it is stopped completely, and I can't get it to work.
    I tried other suggestions such as disabling devices, restart and troubleshooting, and that did not work. I also reinstalled drivers, and that did not work.

    I had that day, so really don't want to send back unless necessary.

    Someone has any advice that might be able to solve it without return?

    See you soon

    Hello

    If HDMI sound problems, you should check if the HDMI was chosen as default device in Control Panel-> sound-> the Read tab.

    After you have connected the TV to laptop, an extra device (HDMI, digital, output etc.) should appear in this tab.
