Lost all sound from my computer after the updates

Driver Audio original was ahead AC 97 Audio for VIA (R) audio controller.  During updates, this changed to C-Media AC 97 Audio Device. Now I have no sound.  When I check in the properties for C-Media I get the message "this device cannot start [Code 10] any ideas how to get back my sound."  Thank you

If you still get the wrong driver of WU on your sound card, hide the update.

You go to the website of the manufacturer (sound card) and get drivers.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium - all user accounts have disappeared after the update of Windows...

    My Windows 7 Desktop is really watered.  After a Windows automatic update, none of the user accounts appear in the login window.  Only a generic connection where you will need to enter the user and the password are displayed.  And when I enter the user name and password, I get a message that they are not valid.

    Here are a few additional pieces of information:

    1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

    2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.  I don't know what happened to them that they do not appear on the screen of restore points.

    3. I can't log on to the computer at all, none of the accounts work.  I can get to a command prompt by using the repair disk, and I can see all the folders for the users.  So everything is intact.   Something must have happened to some system files and thus connect is not possible.

    4. users appear in the list of profiles in the registry.

    5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

    6. I tried sfc/scannow, but I get an error "already waiting.

    7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

    I tried searching online and I'm still not able to connect to the computer.  It has been 2 days of downtime.  What happened to my old restore points?  And why doesn't my restore points created by the work of windows update?

    I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Here are a few comments:

    1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

    -> Which files are missing? Can you give an example?

    2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.

    -> This happens after the automatic updates.

    5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

    -> How to tell you, because you were unable to connect?

    7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

    ->, I guess you have done this so that in the WRE (repair Windows environment). It is a ghost environment that disappears that you restart the system. Drive X: is a virtual, not a real disc.

    I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

    -> Many people are unaware of the need for regular backups (for example, weekly) until they are suffering from a major disaster.

    Suggestions

    Going by your description, I suspect that your existing accounts are irreparable. They need to be rebuilt. User data appear to be safe.

    Option 1. Use the console commands then in WRE to save all the files of the user on an external hard drive. A disk 2.5 "500 GB in a USB enclosure costs less than $60,00. After having tested the files on another machine, perform a destructive factory restore.

    Option 2. Start the computer with a boot of Ubuntu CD, then its GUI allows to save files to the user. It takes time to burn such a CD, but the copy process is easier. When you're done, do a factory restore.

    Option 3. A somewhat complex process allows you to create a new admin account, and then use this account to create new user accounts. You must then manually configure each of them (for example Outlook) and move their records of the old data to the new profile folders.

    There is also a method to restore old files registry of a set of backup files are a few days old. In your case I wouldn't consider as it would create a disjoint system: the registry files refers to a set of files that have been largely modified by the update.

    Post again if you need more detailed instructions for the option that you favor.

  • Start computer after the update problem

    I just have an automatic update from Microsoft to settle on my computer and automatically restart to complete the process. Everything seemed fine with the installation to reach 100%, as it has been taken out of windows. However, my computer now not turn back at all! I've had no problem with the computer before.

    The computer is an Evesham axis R6 XT and I am running Vista Home Premium. Is it possible that this update caused a conflict with my material that could prevent the computer from starting completely or is it just a complete cooincidence that the computer died during a restart of the update?

    The computer has power as when I try and turn on the computer, it shows a blue light continuous flashing on the front (not the HD light) but it feeds any upward? Suggestions regarding the problem would be welcome.

    Remove the Vista updates; two ways to do this:

    1. a System Restore to before the updates:

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > System Restore > restore time/choose your own date > next

    If it is impossible to enter the Normal Mode, do a Safe Mode system restore:

    Press F8 at the startup/power and the list of startup options, use THE ARROW key to select Safe mode > and then press ENTER.

    System restore steps according to the info above.

    Also, once you get in Vista:

    2. click on start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

    > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If the above does not work, try to make a Bootable ERD to do a Startup Repair:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista repair disc.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    There is not a disk of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    See you soon.

  • Restart the computer after the updates when I'm still working on things that I have to save first.

    Hello

    Try the following.

    IDT Audio Installer - Windows 7.

    One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When you're done, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the default values (sometimes it's f9, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    Allow Windows to fully - charge it will automatically load an audio driver, but let just this complete.  Then open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.  'Speakers and headphones' left click once to highlight, and then click the Set Default button - check if you now audio.

  • I have 3 versions of Photoshop CC and 2 versions of first CC installed on my computer after the update. Can I uninstall one of them?

    After my laptop updated my applications, I now Photoshop CC (32 bit), Photoshop CC (64-bit) and Photoshop CC (2014) display installed on my computer. I also shows CC first and first CC (2014). Can I uninstall these they take up valuable space on my primary SSD? Help, please. It sounds ridiculous.

    I just uninstalled Photoshop CC, CC Indesign and Illustrator CC and did not experience any hitch.  EDIT: If you have plugins refer to John T Smith post below. I don't.

    Now time for the mug shot:

    -C' is a year + since switching to the CC; What does in the passage your brand identity at a "SaaS" society if you are not going to do rolling releases? You don't just want to pack and ship the physical boxes more? It is amazing to me. Tell your developers/architects to install some case of Linux (preferably Arch) and see how they handle upgrades of the package. If you guys weren't so phobic of Linux you might have picked up on how do it with elegance the package/app updates.

    -Who, in Marketing thought "well *, if we have a fragmented, CC ecosystem might as well just stick at the end year. If this is going to be your naming convention you should push an update to rename the former CC (2013).

    S ' Please, refresh your creative cloud app immediately. As @unconsenting posted before, HD space is luxury and cannot be wasted. Why not have a prompt asking if the user wants to uninstall any previous version? Before you find the uninstall file, I threw a look through the CC app for a Uninstall button does not exist. Ridiculous that I had to open the Applications folder (or sorting through the many Adobe uninstall applications, which displays to light) and 3 run uninstall applications, each uninstall a 5 min, after spending 15 minutes the new update running

    If you are able to help at all, I would be very grateful. My email address is [email protected].

    Thank you.

    First of all, you should try to remove you sound driver should and then reinstall again.

    On the Toshiba page, you will find the compatible driver.

    The question remains then you should recover the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    Usually, if your notebook malfunction s material doesn t then a recovery CD should solve this problem.
    Otherwise, the hardware may be faulty and the laptop everything should be checked by technicians.

    Shawn,

    I think this isn't the Windows update that caused this problem. It could be something else the cause. Windows Update never removes any of your files and folders stored in the computer.

    You can try a system restore to a previous point when the computer was working properly.
