low volume on HP Pavilion dv7-4177nr

I suddenly lost almost all usable volume on my internal speakers for portable computers.

I tried to do a right-click on the icon "speaker" and setting the properties of a tick in the volume, but the volume is still too low to use with Skype.

I checked my audio driver and it is IDT high definition audio codec 6.10.6292.0 22/07/2010

The driver is installed in C:\windows\system32\drivers\stwrt64.sys

Is there anything else I should try?

Hello

It can be interesting to try a new installation of another driver IDT, then try the following.

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

http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp49001-49500/sp49432.exe

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 set default - it may also be useful to check the box for "Loudness equalization" once again.

Kind regards

  • Pavilion dv7-4177nr: dv7-4177nr right usb ports not working not

    So I recently bought a used dv7-4177nr, got home, and since it has been used, naturally the first thing I do is restore the system to factory conditions. I don't check the ports for a feature beforehand. Run all Windows updates, get rid of the bloatware and realized, "it would be easier with my mouse wireless." Go to plug in, and the ports on the right do not recognize. No sound of "you hooked something up" or looking for drivers or anything like that. Those on the left are working fine. Windows detects that there is no ports.

    I tried the things:

    Update the BIOS

    chipset drivers of the series AMD 8 (not completely sure that those who have the right ones, but nothing else has blown up or whatever it is)

    Remove the USB drivers from Device Manager and let Windows RE-add-the

    The left USB ports are directly on the motherboard and the ports on the right side

    on a removable daughter card.

  • HP pavilion dv7-4177nr startup black screen

    I have laptop listed above. For 3 days I couldn't get it in. looks like his, but the screen remains black. Recently installed antivirus on 01/01/2012 because I had some kind of worm/malware. Windows 7 is the operating system. Cap lock light is on and "combo hp assistant" is on steady not flashing. Don't know what to do.

    Hello - try a hard reset - first

    Remove the battery, AC adapter connector and then hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.

    then reconnect all - see if it boots.

    If this does not work - try to hit F8 after you power, you may need to type the key or press the ESC key for a menu.

    then try to start in safe mode.

    from there, you can try to do a "restore" - restore type in the search box and run the MS system restore - choose a date before your problem.

  • DV7-4177nr: HP laptop dv7-4177nr Caps Lock flashing solid button wireless

    This HP laptop was not start correctly. After some research, I came up on top of the problem LED blink/beep codes and was hoping to use this page.

    The problem is, on my laptop, the Verr Maj light constantly blinks and doesn't stop, unlike on the problem page code where it says he should stop to give me an idea of what the problem is.

    In addition, the LED light on the wireless key is a solid red color. After several attempts, I can't find anything about a flashing infinite caps lock and a solid red light.

    I tried the hard reset, when I remove the battery and the AC adapter and press and hold the power button for a long period of time. I have also reinstalled the RAM sticks. I even took the CMOS battery and replaced.

    If possible, would be just a system board/motheboard failure? I heard that if I take on the RAM and try to turn on/off the unit, the unit should beep at me because it does not recognize the RAM, but in my case, it is not a sound signal.

    Any other ideas?

    I understand that your HP Pavilion dv7-4177nr is not start properly and you have tried various troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue.

    Looks like you follow the proper document to solve the problems. Based on the consistent blinking, it is most likely a single wink indicating the failure of the CPU.

  • 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...

  • HP Pavilion dv7. Primary (internal) (601) battery is low.

    HP Pavilion dv7. At startup, the message says that primary (internal) (601) battery charge is low and must be replaced.

    The PC works normally on the supply network, so do I really need to replace the battery, being that I still use the PC powered by the power supply.

    If I really need to replace the battery, where can I get replacement of and how much will cost replacement?

    Thank you very much

    TC48

    Hello

    Just to clarify, the 601 error relates to your main battery of notebooks (not the RTC cell on the system board).

    If you are satisfied with the machine running on full power, there is no problem with that and you can just remove the battery.

    If you do not want to replace the battery at a certain time, you can order a new through HP parts store or (and), just google the full model number of your laptop dv7 series including the battery of the term.

    Hey Len,

    After watching further in your question, you should look into having an adapter for best results.

    Something like this: http://www.homebrewedmusic.com/tag/adapter/

    Any local music store should have it.
