HP Pavilion dv7-3170el: graph volume bar disappeared

Good evening everyone.

I have a problem on my laptop: grey, graphics, bar, reception of touch sensor under the screen, is no more shown on screen when I try to adjust the volume. The volume can be adjusted properly (the sliders of the slide of windows Mixer works normally) mute control is ok, and the dvd control works well.

I had updated my machine with a copy of Windows 7 Home premium x 64, without HP software installed, I installed all drivers requested, downloaded from the HP service page, and they are listed in the Manager of devices, without errors. I would like to know, what is the software required for the proper display of this utility. Can someone help me?

I thank very you much for the replies.

3RVX is pretty cool, actually better than HP OSD. Only, I don't really like for everything.

    Hello

    If you have a MediaSmart software installed on your portable computer, the volume OSD (on-screen display) is provided by HP MediaSmart SmartMenu - you can download and reinstall this app from the following link.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp45001-45500/sp45140.exe

    When the installation is complete, restart the computer and let Windows load fully before checking if it works fine now.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-3170ez: volume indicator not showing when the volume control

    Hello

    I own a Pavilion dv7-3170ez and when I change the volume using the slider button in the volume on top of the keyboard, the volume is adjusted accordingly, but no volume indicator appears on the display.

    Previously, when you adjust the volume, a speaker icon with a cursor jumped in the middle of the screen showing the current volume level.

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium and Windows Update and HP update shows that I have the latest version of the software. Also, I have the latest version of the BIOS installed.

    Note: the touch buttons on top (volume, speaker and enable wireless, etc) stopped working a few days after the disappearance of the sound meter, I have fixed that by connecting battery power and disconnectiong for awhile. However, the indicator is still not displayed. Don't know if this is related (I guess not).

    Thank you

    The Volume OSD is a HP MediaSmart Menu function. He has to load at startup. To do this, go to msconfig and make sure that it is enabled under the Startup tab...

    If she is not there, you can download it here... ftp://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp48501-49000/sp48552.exe

    Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 will not start Windows 7

    I need assistance or advice from those who have more experience or a more extensive knowledge in this area. I'm working on an HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook pc. Product # is LW181UA #ABA. It has a CPU of 2 gig Hz Intel i7, 8 GB of memory (2 4 gig mem modules), a Hitachi 750 gigbyte HD. He ran and passed the tests of memory, burn in tests, tests of hard drive and startup tests that are run by pressing F2 during power on. When you arrive at the start of the operating system screen. It has Windows 7 64-bit version of the operating system. Then he begins to show the bar graph to slip at the bottom of the screen shows the percent of loading hangs and emits a constant beeeping. If I try to go for repair options or selections of recovery, it does the same thing. For me, I don't see how I can have a hardware problem because it seems to pass memory, disk and start diagnosis? The only thing the owner said to me was that they had spilled a glass of water or soda on the laptop. I expected the pc must be dead or have a power supply problem but not the case. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated because I don't know where to go from here. Also, I use an external keyboard.

    Thank you

  • IDT HD Audio stuttering apps/games/tf2 3d - Windows 7 x 64 - Pavilion dv7-4113tx

    According to the rules, I have need of the State:

    I am an employee of HP, my views/opinions/etc are mine and do not reflect those of HP.

    I filed a bug report kind - but I don't know where to start, I do not work in an area that has nothing to do with the manufacture of products from HP; It is my free time now and I do not have intranet access .

    I recently got a HP Pavilion dv7-4113tx Entertainment Notebook PC [XV780PA] for my personal use, and overall, it was very good. It comes with windows 7 Home Premium x 64 bit.

    There is however a problem I have to implement what concerns games, or I guess any application intensive 3d, especially Valve games, my criterion of choice is Team Fortress 2. Edit: another game that stuttered, but less frequently - Serious Sam HD.

    The game works perfectly in native resolution (ed: change the lower resolution will not affect the bug)-I'm moving 100-120fps but about every 30 seconds - 2 minutes, there is an audio/video stutter (stuttering, she repeats the dernieres.5 seconds of audio about 3 - 4 times in a loop while the screen freezes on where begins the first audio stuttering) which will make the game of 'freeze' for about 2 seconds and then continue where you left off.

    Team fortress 2 is an incredible critical moment online multiplayer game, and this delay essentially means my e-death several times.

    I thought at first that it was the graphics card or drivers - I put drivers at latest on the ATI site, which has increased my fps, but the stuttering was always there. After searching around on the internet a bit, I found a suggestion to turn off the audio driver (like - Device Manager lists IDT High Definition Audio CODEC) as test - so I did.

    The game purrs like a kitten - absolutely no stuttering. my score went up immediately

    So, my next step was to try to get updated for the IDT Audio device drivers (note, I can't find a name of model anywhere in the features of hp - or on the internet really) - I've discovered IDT themselves cannot release the pilots, that these can be obtained through OEM.

    which brings me here.

    now - closest to the drivers, I found I needed here: Driver Audio IDT high definition (HD) for Microsoft Windows 7

    Note: - it says on the page that they are 32-bit drivers - but I found that they work with the 64 bit version of windows.

    These worked a little better - he fixed another problem - by the way if you use volume controls in an application full screen which she will spend on the desktop to display the scroll bar on screen volume down (what was probably redundant because windows 7 displays the volume of the speaker in the lower right corner)- and he turns just the audio down as expected.

    However - the stuttering is still very much present .

    Then, I tried to use the wizard to Support HP to run automated diagnostics and troubleshoot... which then downloaded the old drivers who gave me this issue of full volume control screen back again once - so I guess that the original drivers.

    So I installed the other drivers again.

    My next test will be to use an external USB sound card to see if that will allow me have games with sound.

    An agent appropriate at HP can you please address this concern and notify when this bug - IDT says they work with OEMS to solve problems on a regular basis on the IDT link above.

    In my view, that it is a question that will probably require a bug fix.

    EDIT: I will cross-post this to the game as well.

    second edition: added serious sam, res fullscreen downgrade info, reference removed firewire firewire no!

    Got a solution as possible here. Without changing the HARD drive (for me problem was there).
