No sound from headphones and speakers.

Original title: map its maybe broken

Recently after taking my laptop on a short trip, I put to the top and turned on to find that the sound wasn't working. The speaker symbol had an x close to her and says that no devices were installed. After some messing around, I reinstalled the sound drivers, and now the speaker symbol is back to normal, but acknowledges that my monitor (not my headphones and portable speakers). Because my monitor has no speakers, this does not work for me. I've been trying my brain, tried everything, but nothing seems to work (helmet, not wearing a helmet, reinstall the drivers, active services), and I wonder if this means that my sound card is broken. I had problems with it in the past.

Thanks for your help

Hello

I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing.

What is the brand and model of the computer sound card?

Sound problems can be caused by cables that are not connected properly, damaged drivers, incompatible drivers, sound settings, missing updates and problems with your sound card.

You can follow the steps in the Microsoft KB article and check if it solves the problem:

  • No sound from headphones, internal speakers but continue to make sound

    I use a HP with Windows Vista Premium. My computer quite aware that my headphones are connected, will play the "ding" sound through the headset when I run the test, and many of the sounds of Windows Basic (for example, the volume control) work with the helmet. However all other sounds (such as music, internet, games, etc.) do not play in my headset but my speakers instead. I tried the solutions found on the forums, but ultimately neither my headphones or the speaker worked so I tried a system restore, and Im back where I started, speakers are working but headphones don't while headphones are connected. How can I fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Hi AMcKeown

    Thank you for visiting the Vista Forum.

    Are these USB headset or headphone jack analog standard?

    Are plug you into the headphone to the front of the computer or the rear (according to the model of CV, you have, it can be taken helmet two, one in front and one in back)-If you have one in the front and you use that one, the cable that goes from this Jack to the Audio card can be loosened.  Please consult your manual or the owner with HP support assistance on verification of this cable.

    If it is a set of USB headset, make sure that the drivers are installed and up-to-date and compatible with Microsoft Vista.

  • Inspiron 17R SE 7720 - Audio from headphones and speakers

    When I plug my headphones, sound still comes from my speakers.

    The popup asking what device I plugged is no - longer everytime I plug my speakers - but it does to the microphone socket.

    It is difficult to say 100% for you that it is a hardware failure, because it is not a diagnostic test. If you Win10 you could go back to the operating system in which decision worked and see if it still works here.

    If you have the original operating system came with the laptop, you can perform a recovery of the system (original return the laptop to the factory setting). This will be the fix or confirm that there is a hardware failure.

    To the best of my knowledge your model of laptop doesn't have a replaceable audio port circuit. If I'm wrong on this subject you will need to replace the motherboard to replace the Jack unless you can perform work on the motherboard. You could qualify for something being folded.

    A simple solution is to get a USB input audio cheap and use it for headset and your internal audio system when you want that the speakers to play.

    Try the following.

    Depending on whether you have installed the update of Windows 10 birthday or not, download the installer of Realtek HD Audio relevant on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    Windows 10

    Windows 10 anniversary update

    When finished, press and hold the Windows key and press R

    In the run window, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

    In Device Manager, expand sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the Realtek 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 are finished, download and reinstall the driver for Chipset on the following link.

    When the reinstallation of Chipset is finished, stop the laptop.

    Disconnect the power adapter and 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 f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, 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.

    When windows has reloaded, open your download folder, right click on the installer of Realtek and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, reboot the laptop and let windows load completely for a few minutes before checking.

  • Satellite A505-S6973 - no sound from my laptop speakers

    I have an A505-S6973 and today I lost volume on my speakers. When I took my headphones, I hear, but without the headset is plugged in, I have no sound from my laptop speakers.

    I checked the Manager of devices for software problems but everything is erased, also, my volume is completely on.

    I tried a restore, but in vain, as I tried to uninstall and reinstall the extra value package but when you try to run the software after extraction it an error [0x8146045B] reports itself.

    This morning, everything seemed to work fine, the only thing I can think, I removed my places of sharing network of windows media.

    If that's the culprit can someone guide me on how I can re - install. In addition, value added package question, is there something that can be done, because the buttong enable/disable touchpad when press nothing happens, but if I use the function with F9 key it activates / deactivates.

    I really hope someone can help me, apparently, that it is an unlucky weekend for me.

  • Satellite L500: headphones and speakers to play simultaneously

    I have a Satallite L500. I have problems with my sound.
    When I have my jacks for headphones insert and play something, his fate as the helmet that the speakers of the laptop.
    I want to disable the laptop speakers, but still receive sound in the headphones.
    There is a horrible "echo" when both headphones and speakers are on at the same time. I'm new to Vista and for the life of I can't understand what is happening.

    When I got the laptop everything worked fine. Then I bought some speakers for all the times that I wanted to listen to external speakers.
    I unplug headphone jacks and connect the speaker plug.
    Since that, whenever I plug the headphones also plays the laptop speakers.

    Also, when I got the laptop whenever I would plug into the headphone Sockets, a pop-up message would be on the screen indicating that the microphone and audio jacks have been detected. I no longer get this message.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thanx

    Hello

    I think that your L500 supports the Realtek audio driver.
    My unit with Realtek audio chip has a manager of its installed Realtek, which is located in the Panel!

    Check the settings there.
    In Realtek Manager of its label of speaker on the right, you will find analog and digital outlets.
    Right click and check if you can disable the sound through the speakers while the headphones are connected.

  • How to use headphones and speakers at the same time

    I want to use headphones at the same time that I use the speakers.

    I am hard of hearing and need the LOUD volume. When others are watching a film, projected on HDTV, they won't let me turn the volume up to where I need it, which is why, headphones and speakers at the same time.

    I use Windows 7, I want to stick with Windows 7, so I want a Windows 7 solution.

    If there is no solution for Windows 7 and there is a solution using Windows 10, then and then only, I will be upgrading to Windows 10.

    Using headphones and speakers was possible under Windows XP. I think that a kid at Microsoft, with a regular audience, thought this feature was redundant and removed. Large.

    Macs will play through the headphones and speakers, so maybe it's time to buy a Mac!

    Hi Bob,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  • Sounds coming from my headphones and speakers at the same time - Alienware M17x R4

    I have a rather annoying thingy with my laptop. When I do something on my laptop where noise is involved ( play games , play music , etc. etc. ) and I have ear plugs / headphones inserted , the sound is coming out of both my speakers and my headset.I do not know how long I already have the problem, I discovered it today when I took my headphones off for a moment.
    
    Do any of you know how I can fix this? So that if I insert my headphones , the sound just goes through the headphones and not through the speakers at the same time. I Googled for a while now but I cant find a way to solve it. (Im not a PCs / laptops expert)
    ...
    
    I use an Alienware M17x R4 with Windows 10.
    
    I have already tried to update the drivers , remove and restart to reset them but nothing seems to work, PLEASE HELP!
    ...
    
    Thanks in advance.
    

    Hello. Please post your problem again, because half of your text has been cut. You may need to type it instead of paste.

    Try to switch to the native Windows audio driver.

    1. open Device Manager (found in the Control Panel, or type devmgmt.msc in the search box).
    2. develop the 'audio controllers, video & game' and right click on the Creative Labs Recon pilot.
    3 Select this option to "Update driver software".
    4. click on "Browse my computer for driver software".
    5. click on "Let Me pick from a list of drivers on my computer".
    6. put the "Show compatible hardware" check box if not already checked.
    7. in the list of devices, click on 'High Definition Audio"(native driver).
    8. click on "next".
    9. in the update driver warning box, click 'Yes' (the driver).
    10 restart the portable computer if you are prompted. If not invited, so no need to restart.
    [To return to the Recon pilot, do it again but reverse steps 2-7 names].

    If you have only the symptoms with one of the drivers, then the other is at fault. If you have the same symptoms with two audio drivers, then it is likely not a driver problem, maybe material.
