How to activate Audio devices hidden in Vista and Windows 7
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/143447-audio-device-enable-hidden-devices.html

Connect one microphone, music player or other audio device to your computer (you want to be sure
the mic input is enabled)
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/connect-a-microphone-music-player-or-other-audio-device-to-your-computer

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pilots may also need to be updated:

Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek high definition
Audio (this is an example and you can have an other name/maker).

Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often
and then install the latest version. Restart and check after each test, not
rare to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just the version make sure you
installed shows upward on the tab of the driver.

Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

---------------------------------------------------------

After the updated driver.

Click with the right button on the speaker near clock - recorders - right click in the box - check see the
Disconnected devices and show disabled devices - check your micro - highlight
then on lower right properties. Make sure that the appropriate injector is selected and check
other parameters - levels tab make sure that MUTE is disabled and APPLY / OK to change
.

Also in the search for some Audio Manager Panel (perhaps named after the manufacturer of the sound driver). Mine
is the RealTek Audio Manager, yours can be quite different name if you have one.

  • I have a hp mini 110-1030 ca running win xp 2 GB of ram that is faulty. Have tried everything without success.

    Local tech said that I demand a new hd for a cost of $130.  Can't afford that. Happy to provide more information on request. Desperate at this point. My computer recognizes the external hard drive, it works normally. Don't want to make this post long and to use more space. First display was screwed up-images spread out of sight, had to scroll.

When started using win xp choices in the bios, bad performance returned. have tried everything else.  is reformatting the hd my last option, can I reinstall the OS back?

    It is difficult to understand, from your description, what is your problem.  What is your view or is it a slow response?  When computers are running OK in Mode safe mode but not in Normal Mode, it is usually caused by a program that runs at startup in Normal Mode but not in Mode without failure.  To debug this type of problem, you must use "msconfig" to enable / disable startup items until you find the source of the problem.

    Whenever you think that disk errors, the first thing you can do is run "chkdsk" with the /F or/r option (or use one of the boxes, if using the graphical user interface).  WARNING: It will be after the next reboot, takes usually 1 to 2 hours (or more if there is a lot of drive problems) and can not be interrupted.

  • 10 for Vista security updates do not settle. Have tried everything I can find on the web, here, difficulty-it... ad nauseam.

    Windows Update tried to install "10 updates important" for several days, and all have failed to install.  I have tried everything I can even, at one point, purchase ImproveSpeed that one of the web pages of Microsoft directed me, claiming that would fix it.  Nothing I've tried has solved the problem and I've tried everything but manually change the registry which I don't feel comfortable doing so.  I spent $ 40.00 for ImproveSpeed and that has not worked... Please, someone, please help.  This is nutz.

    Something seems not good.

    Agreed.

    Did you ever get McAfee Security Center updated (for example, definitions)?

    Have you already followed steps #8, #9 & #10?

    You have a functional antivirus application (with updated definitions) installed now?

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

    Rhea answer Desk technology, was correct: since "Mainstream support" for Vista SP2 ended on April 10, 2012, Microsoft offers is no longer support for security updates.  Similarly, MS has not offered this support to users of Windows XP to the last few years. [Yes, this is all very confusing!]

    PS: If a technician of the Office of response can not get your problem solved in the first 15 minutes (free), they will want to access your computer remotely in order to help you further (in most cases)- but only after you have paid the Premium support fees. Actually, I was very surprised to hear that McAfee won't charge you anything for their support - unless you had already purchased McAfee Total Protection.

  • receive the following error code when searching for a piece of music I did several times without a music problem but have recently updated Firefax: Fatal error: Call to undefined function AmazonData() in/home/boss/public_html/mc on line 13

    I am in the page web http://www.songarea.com/ and after searching a piece of music, I get the following error message:
    "Fatal error: Call to undefined function AmazonData() in/home/boss/public_html/mc on line 13.
    I did this several times before without a problem, but have recently updated Firefox with the Skype add-on and wonder if the two things are related.

    Hi John,.

    It is an error message from the web server providing this site. Specifically, it is something wrong with their PHP code.

    It is not browser specific and would go into another browser besides Firefox.

    You will need to contact the webmaster of this site to report this problem. A quick test does not show this problem, but you do not specify what search query, you tried:

  • My speakers have no sound - only a hiss and static. Have tried everything, even the new speakers. Suggestions? Thank you!

    I tried 3 pairs of speakers front, rear, type usb, plug type.  Initially, it stopped working, then computer has crashed, I had fixed it, now always the speakers out no sound - whistle just let me know that they are connected.  The computer says that they are working correctly, however they do not have.   I did in December sync my new Kindle but that is the only change to the computer.  Any suggestions?  The repairman will come back next week but in the meantime I would like sound.  It will not play music - either from Pandora or CD computer.  Thank you!!

    [Moved from comments]

    Phonetic, you experience a card number.  I don't know how helpful this will be but have tried to reinstall the sound card drivers?  What kind of sound card do you have?  Have you tried the speakers with other computers?  What kind of computer do you have?  What version of windows is running?

    I hope this helps a little.

  • My HP Deskjet 2050 will not scan. HP support have tried everything and have now given up, which suggests to contact Microsoft. Help.

    Hello

    "HP support have tried everything and gave up now."

    If HP has renounced their product, we can not offer much hope.

    It's their hardware and their software that runs their product.

    I suggest that you try their Support Forums, as it appears from their support of the unscrupulous company.

  • Browser, not loading of Web pages. Have tried everything listed in the resolution of the problem, no change

    For these last days were able to load anything within the Firefox browser. No error messages, simply login on the tab page capable of loading on other browsers, but I greatly prefer Firefox.

    Have tried to restart the browser, restart the computer, deactivated the plugins, started the browser in safe mode, uninstalled and reinstalled, reset Firefox, installed any windows updates complete required computer, do analyses, the antivirus scans.

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and allow your firewall to ask permission to get access full and unrestricted, again to install for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    You can check if you can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options key.

  • Can not reset the page to the new tab. Have tried everything listed on this site.

    Somehow my the new tab page changed. Instead of the new default page its search.conduit tab. I tried to type in the topic: config in the address bar and changing the browser.newtab.url back to about: newtab but it won't save my changes. I can type in the new address, but as soon as I click ok it is still the search.conduit. I checked that I have no Add ons and any additional toolbar. I've tried everything.

    You can check in "Windows Control Panel > programs ' recently installed programs see if something Conduit or any other suspicious software appears.

    You can uninstall or disable the extension value Apps 1.3.0.2.

  • How can I make the folders always open full screen in Vista. I have tried everything it suggested. NOTHING WORKS!

    I tried everything I found on internet to make files open full screen and stay like that. Is there a permanent solution for this? I've been at Microsoft, vistax64.com, etc. including Alt space X - problem solved or BAD! Help, please. Thank you.

    Three options.

    1: take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Do not use to expand. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.

    2: any shortcut you use to launch the window, right-click, and select Properties. Under the 'Run' drop-down list, choose "expanded".

  • I need help, I have tried everything! Network controller after you have installed windows 7 on a windows 8.1 machine!

    Hi all!

    I have a Dell Inspiron 3521. It was 8.1 on Windows and I installed Windows 7 Pro OEM 64 bit. I delete the old file of windows. I was able to install all the drivers from Dell Web site, but I can't seem to find a way to get the right driver for the "network controller". I have tried driver identifier and it shows me two missing drivers: 1: BCM43142A0, 2: network controller.

    This is the ID of the MDO of material:

    PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4365 & SUBSYS_00161028 & REV_01
    PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4365 & SUBSYS_00161028
    PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4365 & CC_028000
    PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4365 & CC_0280

    I found a post with someone who has the same keys, but the driver in the link did not help me. Maybe it's the way I installed the drivers? Or how I installed windows 7?

    Help, please!

    The last Reference Dell driver for the Dell Wireless 1704 map is 6.30.223.228. You can also try the later card Dell Wireless 1708 6.30.223.245 (both are adapted Broadcom drivers) first directly and then in Device Manager.

  • I have tried everything I can and still not bring my dvd burn ration of 16:9... can anyone else help?

    Hello

    So I looked at this and checked the forums and still cannot find a solution to this problem I have.

    I have all the settings that I can see, the quality parameters, parameters of transcoding and exported PP footage in 16 / 9, also tried to interpret the images to SD PAL widescreen and when I burn the DVD it burns ALWAYS 4:3... am I missing something obvious? Previews show in 16 / 9, M2V PP stills plays in 16 / 9... I've been at this for hours and hours, any help would be appreciated.

    I'm also quite new to this, so maybe that's the problem.


    Sarah

    My experience has been that VLC does not always follow the proportions. Don't forget to stop 'window always fit' and set the format of image instead of "default".

    This does not mean that you have our correct DVD, it's just that you can't necessarily count on VLC.

    Do you mean that a DVD disc engraved on a player connected to a TV did not work? If so, go back to this set and check the settings of the DVD drive.

    If your playback settings are correct, then something else in your workflow is turned off. Report screenshots of the project Panel and timeline properties.
