• Y570 Sound device does not

  Hi people,

  No sound in my Y570. When I play music from windows media, he said that Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device. It might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it can be used by another program, or it may not work properly. Although I can always cut, disable, and change the volume I have always not able to receive all the sounds. I already check the installed drivers are up to date and they are working properly. There are 3 of them on the tab (audio, video controller and game) cyberlink virtual webcam driver, intel (r) display audio and high definition realtek finally audio.

  Please help me... I have a presentation power point on the way...

  You can download and install the drivers from the link below?

• Error Windows Media Player cannot play the file because "it might not be a sound device installed on your computer.

  Original title: Media Player

  THE FOLLOWING IS a MESSAGE I GET WHEN TRYING TO DOWNLOAD FILES: "Windows Media Player cannot play this file because there is a problem with the audio device.  "It might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it can be used by another program, or it might is not working properly.  What "audio device" are talking about?

  Hello

  1. do you get an error with this error code?

  2 have you installed multiple audio devices on your computer?

  3. what version of Media Player do you use?

  4. were you able to play the files using Media Player without any problem before?

  5 did you a recent software or changes to the material on the computer?

  Audio device is the part that allows sound from the computer. If the appliance is used or if the drivers are corrupt, then you can get the error message.

  I suggest you go through the steps and check.

  Method 1:

  Quit other programs that may be using your sound device, and then try to play the file again.

  Method 2: Install an updated driver.

  Step 1: Firstly uninstall the audio driver from Device Manager and add or remove programs

• When starting Vista, sound 'Device failed to connect' play 3 times, but I do not know for what.

  Hi Pretzilz,

  I don't know if you're still looking for an answer to this problem, but I think I solved it!

  I am running Windows 7 Ultimate and I had installed Norton Internet Security 2010.  I decided to uninstall it after that trial was up and try Norton Antivirus instead.  I had also used the Norton Removal Tool and then these mysterious sounds "device could not connect" that occur at the start of my computer, just after the Office responsible.  He was literally driving me crazy because this is a brand new computer that should work just fine for most.

  So I investigated further after reading your post on the errors of the device, and I decided to take a peek in my "devices and printers" and "Device Manager ' screens."  Of course, the old screen claimed that my 'Ultrafast media player' and 'USB2.0CRW' required for troubleshooting (a small yellow sign).  I tried the troubleshooting through this screen, but to no avail.

  I went into Device Manager"through and under"Portable devices"my previously assigned different five of card readers had in small panel yellow symbols on them.  I went into the Properties window for each, and it says the following:

  Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

  Apparently, the Norton Removal Tool damaged my registry.  So I called my Alienware support people, and while they had me waiting a solution, I found a Microsoft Windows support article, which actually worked:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772156 (WS.10) .aspx

  I went to each player who was in trouble on the Device Manager, click right on it, uninstalled, and then scanned for changes to hardware and the OS found once again, not reinstalled, no problem.  I rebooted the computer just to make sure and voila.  No sounds more mystery.

  Oh - and I heard a total of five beeps at startup, but I have five disks pre-assigned.  I guess you hear three beeps, because you probably three drives.  I hope this works.

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
  Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
  RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE
