Hi Bedanmel,

This problem is limited to any game in particular?

Method 1: Each game\program has a unique setting to turn on and turn off the sound. See the (manual) for certain keys product documentation or the game settings to "switch" the sound on or off.

 

Method 2: You can follow the steps described in the article below, which deals with a similar question

    Hello
    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site

    (A). I suggest you to run the audio troubleshooter. Check out this link.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-playing-audio-Troubleshooter

    B. check your audio settings in the game to make sure that the sounds are turned on and that the cursor is high enough so that you can hear them.

    C. check the meter of volume on the value max/reactivate the sound plugin window?
    Increase the volume on your speakers.
    Activate/reactivate the sound upward the audio volume level? (speaker on the taskbar icon)
    See if you have set your audio device by default:
    1. start
    2 Control Panel
    3 sounds and Audio devices
    4. audio
    5. Select your audio source by default (acoustic/adapter card your speakers are currently connected)
    For example, C-Media wave, Realtek device driver audio etc.
    6. check the box "Use only default Devices", and then click OK

    D. reactivate all audio sources
    1. go in Control Panel.
    2 sounds and Audio devices
    3. in the 'Volume' tab, click on "Advanced" in the section "the Unit Volume."
    4 try not silent all audio sources, if none of them are dumb.

  • Satellite P100-238: stuttering graphics and sound with the game

    Hello

    A few days ago, I bought a P100-238 both for business and holiday makers with leisure activities include mainly games, I thought this would be a great opportunity to take the next level and buy something powerful with Vista on board... IM starting to think ive made a big mistake. First impressions of the laptop were great (and vista although it is a little welfare State is very good).

    The problems started when I installed a few games (Please take into account, it is a system of 4 GB with 2 gig of ram and a Geforce 7900 gs graphics card, it should theoretically be ideal). The first few games I tried was wonderful... If you stopped, but as soon as you moved (in the game) about every 3 seconds the games would stutter to stop, then start again... every 3 seconds. Okay, I need the drivers, so I jumped on nvidia and tried installing different drivers to see none to work with laptops. In fact whenever I tried to install I got the message that or the other driver is up-to-date or that I'm «not equipped for vista» Anyway to cut a long story short, I discovered www.laptopvideo2go.com when I discovered that Nvidia does not support drivers for laptops (even once cut a long and painful story short) so I used it recommended modded INF files as well as various pilots until the later. Unfortunately I still had the same problem, someone recommended it can become again the sound driver so I tried that no different.

    After further investigation on various forums, it seems im not the only person who knows these probems. On these boards, I noticed that someone had the sound and graphics too jerky and sent it for repair to have the CPU, motherboard, ram etc replaced until they found the error on the HARD drive and once replacement he was fine.

    Using this info and finally think I had put inside of it I took my laptop to the store and he was replacing, ultimately reinstalling everything and lift a game and running... guess what... still the same.
    This is totally unacceptable.
    How do you market a product as games and entertainment laptop when she's obviously serious faults preventing these activities.

    Anyone here have the solution? Also, I should mention that this problem persists when the resolution and graphic details fell to a minimum in the game.

    Thank you
    Darren

    [Edited by: admin]

    It's not a hardware problem or a laptop, but Windows Vista!
    Check out the other discussions in forum games on Vista performance with games!
    Some people have installed XP and it s running like in a dream!

    It seems that we have to wait for a first Microsoft Vista SP1 or certain patches.
    Maybe then the Vista will be more compatible with all these games on the market!

  • envy dv6t 7300: buzzing noise during the game

    So i; ve recently encounter this problem when I opened a video game, the sound in the game is replaced by a hum. Told me that her 24 bit can fix this, but while the hum goes away, all the sounds of the game went too. Since it is a laptop, dig inside to check the shields and change things will be very difficult, and I don't trust myself to do such things. I also tried switching drivers and such, but nothing is done.

  • No sound on a game

    I have Grand Theft Auto III on Vista. Until a few weeks ago, it was fine, then all of a sudden there was no sound on the game. I have Grand Theft Auto Vice City, and has all the audio problems. I was checking options in GTA III and there seems to be problems with the audio in the menu option, so I have no idea why this is happening.

    Hi Daggio,

    Welcome to Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

    If the problem persists, I suggest that you update the drivers for the audio device in Device Manager, follow these steps:

    Click Start > type in Device Manager in the start search box > open Device Manager > expand the sound, video and game controllers > right click on the audio device > click Properties > click on the driver tab > click on update driver

    Now, restart the computer and check if the problem is resolved.

    You can also visit the site of the game for updates or the available fix, install them and check

    If the problem persists, visit the website of the GTA game and needs to check if there are updates for this game

    Hope this information is useful.

  • HP Envy 15-k111nl: a black rectangle on the start of the game

    Hi all

    I am writing here because I am having graphics problems during execution of any kind of games on my brand new HP Envy 15-k111nl. In particular, the games work with Dx9, while they never work in mode Dx11. immediately after I start the game, in fact, I have a black rectangle in the upper left of the screen (in the rest, I see the desktop). I can move the cursor, and I can hear the sound of the game play. Have you ever heard on this issue?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi SDF15,

    Thank you for your help. The issue was due to the accident of my Nvidia drivers. I discovered that it was triggered by another pilot that I had installed a VGA on USB cable. Now, it's all ok!

  • Windows 7 - XP, the sound stops for the game videos! (not in gameplay).

    Hello, I have a very strange problem with sound when video games! When the video plays, the sound stops every 5 seconds...  My OS is Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I have also two operating system Windows XP 32-bit, and 32-bit Windows Vista. Under XP it is the same problem, but Vista doesn't. PLEASE, I BEG YOU! I really want a solution for Windows 7. It is very annoying, the sound stops every 5 sec. In gameplay, the sound is not good, but in the videos... Thanks in advance!

    Hackerspy,
    You must keep checking with the manufacturer of chipset of the sound card for the updated drivers.  Regarding codecs, I personally used the K-lite Codec pack.  I have all the others have not yet used but only found a reliable being.  You can Bing for Codec packs, but be careful when you download from.

  • Surround sound cut during the game Mass Effect 2 on Windows 7 x 64 bit

    Original title: Surround sound cut while in games

    I gathered all my own office.

    Here are a few basic requirements.

    Procoessor: AMD Phenom II 955 3.2x4

    Motherboard: Asus M4A77T/USB 3.0

    Graphics card: Nvidia GTX 460

    8 GB ram

    Here's my problem:

    My surround sound cut while I play Mass Effect 2. Sometimes not entirely; I'll be able to hear the music, but not dialogue. Other times I can hear the dialogue but not the music.

    I use a headset usb (Logitech G35 7.1 w surround)

    What happens if tried:

    Update the bios.

    Update card drivers his (motherboard onboard)

    Update drivers Logitech G35.

    Patchwork of Mass Effect 2.

    __

    In addition, on people of forums to effect mass who use Windows XP disable their hardware acceleration and solve the problem. I can't find this option in Windows 7 x 64.

    :) Help is appreciated...

    Hi korlath,
    First, make absolutely certain that your soundcard Control Panel, but also the sound properties in the control panel are properly configured to use the number of channels you want.
    If you are still having problems and you want audio equipment, follow these steps:
    a. go to your C:\Users\\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect\Config directory and rename the file to something else BIOEngine.ini.
    (b) launch Mass Effect without running the Config utility. The game will recreate BIOEngine.ini using the default values, and must correctly identify your audio hardware.
    c. in the in-game Audio hardware settings should already be selected - do not change back to audio software or make other changes to the sound settings.
    Note: Audio: If checked, the game uses hardware acceleration that improves the audio quality and performance. I recommend you check this option in most cases, unless you are having audio problems or other problems. In particular, note that you will need to check this option if you have a multichannel audio system and use more than 2 channels.
    Hope this information is helpful
