My volume on my laptop is extremely low!

My Entertainment PC HP Pavilion dv6-6c10us volume is so low I hardly hear it! Listening to music and watching videos or movies are extremely frustrating because I can barely hear the sound. I did a test of its scope. All sounds are at maximumsettings. Is there some type of fault with the sounds on this laptop? When I bought it about 6 months ago, I expected to be unable to barely hear speakers. I need help, this very, very frustrating!

Hello

One thing that can help is the following.  Do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select "playback devices".  Left click the device once to highlight default (it is usually 'speakers and headphones') and then click the properties button.  Click the enhancements tab and put a check mark in the box "Loudness equalization.  Click on apply to save the changes and then click OK in all other windows and see if allowed at all.

  • Satellite A100-532: the microphone volume is extremely low

    I just bought Satellite A100-532 and I have a problem with the audio input. I can't use the microphone to chat with my friend on msn or even record my voice on the hard drive because the volume is extremely low.

    I tried to turn the volume on the desktop and on the RealTek HD audio Manager, but nothing helped. Microphone works perfectly fine, as I hear myself on the speakers.

    Normally, with my old laptop (M30 series) I could use sound recorder to record the music that I play using Winamp or WinMediaPlayer, but for this new laptop it detects all the sounds at all... just silence.

    Please notify.

    Hello

    You should also check the volume controls in the "Audio & Sound devices" in the Panel.
    In the 'Volume' tab it please go to "Advanced".
    Then a "Volume control" should appear.
    Check if all controls are set at a high level.
    In addition, enter the 'options' and 'properties' and activate all volume controls.
    Also change to "recording" and activate here also all the controls.
    Additional you must check if the "check" is set to high.

    Use the 'Advanced' mic option and play with thrust mic settings.
    I'm sure that you will find the best settings for your mic record

  • Why Windows 8 Pro becomes extremely low FPS on my high end Graphics Card compared to Windows 7 that had ZERO lag problem!

    Since I bought Windows 8 Pro for my Gaming Office all I have is having problems with the game, like Midtown Madness 2 allows to get as stable 60 fps but now on windows 8, I'll have 3 to 10 fps and GTA IV gets like 8-24 FPS on this graphics card high end and why Windows 8 Pro becomes extremely low FPS on my games compared to Windows 7 which had no problem who worked as its supposed to work. and it is a High Spec computer to run all games maxed out with all the problems of lag, but for some reason, there are problems of lag. I had uninstalled the graphics drivers in the control panel and start in SafeMode with Fusion driver to remove the remaining data from pilot and I reinstalled the last chart and without success, I always get problems.

  • Need help with extremely low rates of FPS on X 51 new R2

    I just bought a new Alienware X 51 R2 to replace an old Alienware model with a Radeon graphics card that I bought in 2012. My old machine has done useful work to run the games, and I was getting about 30 FPS on Grand Theft Auto 5 to high heat (especially) with a resolution of 1440 X 900. For most of the games I could play on normal settings and get 30 + FPS and I was happy with it. Not so with the new X 51 R2 I bought.

    Almost immediately, I noticed that my FPS with GTA V was extremely low. When I start a game (1920 X 1080 with normal settings), the FPS is around 120, and the game plays smooth as butter, but as soon as I start to move starts to decline until it is of the order of 15-20. Enter a car is even worse, with FPS readings between 5 and 10, and at this rate, it is impossible to play. The problem seems to occur any resolution, I start the game or if I push the graphics settings to the lowest available.

    I thought it was a driver problem, so I uninstalled all the drivers and software NVIDIA and a clean installed drivers, but that has not helped. Then I started to download and test the other games that I have to look at my FPS with them. Note that I tested each game first leave the game choose the graphics setting, then I tested it again on smaller settings at 1920 X 1080 and 1440 X 900.

    Here is a list of some of the things I've tried:

    1. Downloaded FRAPS and used instead of the tool integrated FPS w / steam. Readings FRAPS corresponding to the display of the steam.
    2. Wipe the old NVIDIA drivers/software and did a clean install only the driver.
    3. Turn off VSync and tried the Adaptive VSync; neither helped.
    4. I bought a keyboard Roccat / mouse and I was wondering if they were part of the problem, so I uninstalled them and used a plain Microsoft keyboard and mouse. Did not help.
    5. Set the executable of the game to the highest priority in the Task Manager. Not good.
    6. Watched the memory usage, CPU utilization and disk i/o while playing to see if I have the hardware bottlenecks. CPU usage never had more than 20%. Memory usage has never had more than 37%. Drive e/s never had more than 10% after the initial load.

    • Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 w / 2 GB of memory
    • HARD disk: 7200 RPM Toshiba DT01ACA200

    I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out how I can solve the problem. This is the first time I've owned a GeForce card (always had ATI Radeon in the past), and I'm starting to question that decision. The only game I could get decent framerate on is 10 years and more, and it's pretty frustrating.

    Someone has an idea of what I can do to get to a resolution?

    There must be something wrong with the fan 960 GTX. Either it has disconnected or broken. Or in bulk (screws not doing their job). I do not think that it is disconnected because it is detected, so it is either broken or it is loose.

    You can check yourself on the GPU or contact technical support to examine it.

    When I add text to an image that starts as a RAW file, I have no problem. When I try to add text to an image that is only a jpg file, the size of the text is extremely low. Even when I change the the font size to 72 pt, it is always small. How can I fix it?

    You set the font size to a size that is suitable for the size of the document.   Size of the document may vary everywhere.   To resolve this problem in action, I solved in scaling the document to a known size then use a font suitable for a document of this size.  When you resize an image using size with resample Images not only checked a single pixel is change everything that is changed is the DPI image resolution setting.  So if you size a picture 8 "wide you choose a font size is good for wide image 8" the Save action.  To work around the problem of changing the size of the printing I wrote a Script to use in such an action.  The script is used twice, there is a backup and restore script.   The first time that the script is used the script records the resolution DPI images in the metadata documents.  The second time that the script is executed, it retrieves the registered PID parameter deletes the record of metadata from images and set the DPI images that had been saved.    If the use of fonts for the document 8 "will be resized to fit the print original size.

    In a script, you can calculate a correct font size to use.  Actions cannot retrieve information or use logic. They need to use the Plug-ing and Script where logic is needed.  When you make using Photoshop UI you use your eyes and brain.

  • HP-r203tx: low volume in my laptop

    Sounds in my laptop speaker is very low. I tried the option of development which was published earlier in the audio driver of forum.windows has been installed.am I supposed to install driver realtek. Help, please

    In order to have full fuction of your laptop speakers, you will need Realtek audio driver of HP for your laptop model.  If still installed, you can use HP Recovery manager to re-download your specific Realtek audio driver.  Search for "HP Recovery Manager" in your charms to W8/8.1 bar to see if you still have the Recovery Manager.  From there on, you can press the tab "reinstall drivers or applications.  In this tab, find "Realtek High definition (HD) Audio Driver" and check this box.  It will be the most recent driver that HP has to your computer.

    I know all this because I uninstalled my driver Realtek HP-change on my Envy 15 t. This driver HP-modified ruined the sound with external speakers because of its horrible fluctuation and compression via the Beats Audio Panel.   I uninstalled this driver and installed the latest Realtek driver on their own Web site.  Now, I have impressive sound with external speakers, but the internal Laptop speakers are weak and dull at best.  I don't use my laptop speakers much, so I'm fine with that until HP decides to solve this problem of fluctuation and compression with the Realtek driver.

  • Extrem low volume in my car audio system

    Hi all

    I just got a Sansa Clip + (thank you Santa). It works very well with the helmet.

    But, when I use it in a car (with a cassette adapter or through the connector to the) the volume is very low. Even if I put the sansa volume and maximum personal equalizer.

    There is a solution to have a power of correct volume?

    Thanks in advance.

    Don't doublecheck and make sure that the volume of the player under settings is set to high (by pressing the small button at home, go to Settings/System Settings/Volume/high).  That may help some, although I think it's probably the connection that is the question - try a separate cable to the.

  • The 8.1 Windows USB microphone volume is extremely low

    I have a Samson C01U USB microphone. It's a plug-and-play microphone. There is no driver for it. There is no firmware for it. You just plug in, and it works.

    This microphone has always worked perfectly. When I used Windows 7, I put the volume of it at about 40-50% and everything seemed crisp, clear and strong. On Windows 8, it's incomprehensible unless I put the volume to 90%, but even at this moment, he is not strong enough. Providing 100% results in a lot of noise in the background.

    This is not the first time, someone raised this issue because it is very common to all individuals with a plug-and-play USB microphone:

    As you mentioned that you have checked the matter with another micro but you still face this problem. We already tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers. I suspect that this problem is a hardware problem. Check the issue with a local technician.

  • Volume of the Satellite A300D going low-high-low-high

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300D and I was listening to music through the built-in speakers and the volume seemed to go low-high-low-high (as a pulse)

    It is not that noticeable, but now I know about it.
    I'm quite get irritated with it. (I'm playing music via iTunes)

    In addition, this also happens when I use headphones, and when I play through external speakers.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    In addition,

    The button of the Player multimedia music button on the laptop itself opens Windows Media Player.

    Does anyone know how to change it to iTunes?

    Thank you!

    > I get quite irritated with it. (I'm playing music via iTunes)

    Have you noticed what playing music with MS Media Player, Win Amp or other applications?
    Do you have this notice without installation of software 3rd party such as iTunes for example?

    To be honest I have never heard of this issue, and I think that this could be linked to the gift of pre-installed software 3rd party laptop.

    > The button of the Player multimedia music button on the laptop itself opens Windows Media Player.
    > Is anyone knows how to change it to iTunes?

    As far as I know that's not possible. I use my mind Winamp buttons because I could activate this software WinAmp but it s doesn't know only not for me, it would be iTunes software supports the extension of the networks too.

    Followed for Vista and XP laptop battery
    http://www.pctipsbox.com/laptop-battery-monitoring-for-Vista-and-XP/

    Excerpts:

    You just need to download the BatteryMonitoring.zip file and extract anywhere on your hard drive. This small program does not have any installation, then extract the contents of the zip file, double-click BatteryMonitoring.exe to run it.

    There are two types of warning sounds audible for low battery notification and another for notification of critical battery level.

    If you want that the warning sound loud enough to draw your attention, you will need a 3rd party program. The link above is one of these.
