    My laptop made a weird noise, after that my laptop suddenly is not all sounds more. When I check the audio it says "no audio output device is installed". I been looking for this difficulty in the last days and found no problems. I tried to reinstall my audio driver (Realtek), but then an error occurred. It says 'extended attributes are incompatible. Help, please!

    Farel salvation,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you no longer have sound in Windows 8 and you also tried to re - install the audio driver. I appreciate the efforts made in the patches that you have already tried. Let me ask you;

    • What is the brand and model of the computer?

    There could be several reasons for this cause and diagnose the problem, we will try the following methods and check.

    Method 1: Run the audio Troubleshooter

    A convenience store is an automated tool that can find and automatically fix problems with your PC. Audio troubleshooting can diagnose and troubleshoot equipment and playback of sounds common.

    Method 2: Look for important and recommended updates by using Windows Update

    1. Drag from the right edge of the screen, tap settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
      (If you use a mouse, point to the lower right of the screen, move the mouse to the top, click settingsand then click change PC settings).
    2. Press or click update and recoveryand press or click on Windows Update.

    3. Press or click check now.

    4. If there are updates available, press or click on the link and then press or click on install.

      Windows Update will tell you if the updates have been installed correctly.

    To check the optional updates by using Windows Update:

    1. Drag from the right edge of the screen, tap settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
      (If you use a mouse, point to the lower right of the screen, move the mouse to the top, click settingsand then click change PC settings).

    2. Press or click update and recovery , and then press or click on Windows Update.

    3. Press or click see detailsand press or click find updates. (If you can't see the details, it are not updated optional available.)

      Read and accept the terms of the license and then press or click on Finish if the update requires it. You may be prompted for an administrator password or to confirm your choice.

    Method 3: Install the software from the manufacturer of the device. If your device is equipped with a disk, this disk can contain software that installs a driver for the device.

    Method 4:

    1 right-click the volume in the taskbar icon, and select sounds
    2. scroll down about 3/4 on the events program: the list and select the option that says Windows user account control
    3. change the sounds: option ( no), and then click OK

  • Error "no Audio output device is installed".

    All of a sudden I lost my audio out of nowhere part, about 2 weeks ago and have not been able to solve this problem

    I have updated my audio drivers, tried the BIOS update and have tried a dozen different bugs, all who do not work, I tried the system restore goes several times earlier and earlier dates of restoration each time and that also did not work

    audio does not work through the external speakers or headphones

    I have not installed new hardware or updated my operating system, I have also not recently installed any new programs or updated an any of them, unless other wise noted above.

    When I hover over the ""peripheral output Audio n is installed"" speaker icon, it's impossible because I'm on a laptop that has a built in speakers who have always worked perfectly fine

    my laptop is a HP Pavilion dv9000 series (HP Pavilion dv9730us Entertainment Notebook PC to be precise), I'm running on Windows Vista 32-bit

    can somone please help me finally solve this problem?

    It's really old, but I thought I would mention how this has been finally resolved.

    a little more than a year after I posted this one of my friends who's in it fixed it for me by repeating the informed here solution to reinstall the audio driver, who alone does not work well so it changed the audio from the internal speakers to an external source (USB headset) and it works fine now.

    so long story short, if your audio fails all of a sudden like that your better (cheaper, faster and easier) solution is to just get a USB wireless headset (I recommend the Logitech G920).

    Of course you shouldn't go after attempting a system restore or reinstall the audio driver that the earpiece is a bit on the expensive side.

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

    Another solution might be to pull on your hard drive and put it in another computer (provided that computers use the same type of hard drive, IE. SATA), you won't lose any of your files, programs, or settings, but get another computer may not be worth the expense. Or you can clone your hard drive on a separate hard drive, which is essentially the same thing.

    Hello

    I look for a similar problem in the forum but have not found anything that's been resolved.
    I'll try to explain how my problem came.

    My sound is fine until when a few days ago I tried to lower the volume and then all of a sudden it froze.
    Came a message that his unit has stopped working.
    I restarted the laptop, but it has not started at all, nothing on the screen, just the fan runs at slow speed. I figured it by removing one of the plates of ram and then with the possible one began almost success except he was not an indication of a sound, just the message "no audio output device is installed", and an 'x' on the taskbar icon sound.

    In Device Manager it is not anything related to an audio device High Definition Audio Controller except under the menu system devices.

    So what do you think, is this a hardware or no problem and is it fixable.
    Hope someone can give me an answer.

    Thanks in advance!

    Have you read this thread:
    https://Forum.Toshiba.EU/showthread.php?82746

    Open the Device Manager.
    Then expand the sound, video and game controllers, click on the Realtek High definition Audio choose: turn OFF, then turn ON.

    If you can not find Realtek HD audio device (this is the sound card), so I recommend you click on view and choose 'show hidden devices '. Perhaps the sound card appears in the list...

    In addition, visit the Realtek driver page and download and install the latest Realtek HD audio driver.

    Hope that it could solve the problem

    Hello

    I came from TenForums forum, hoping to find a solution to the problem of noise from my office.

    Status of the solution of the problem is at: http://www.tenforums.com/drivers-hardware/45369-no-audio-output-device-installed.html

    When I move my cursor on the audio icon on the corner at the bottom right of the screen, the message of the index says "no Audio output device is installed". By clicking on the audio icon so that windows are trying to solve the problem will not solve the problem.

    In Device Manager, I have 2 "High definition audio controller" that display a yellow "!" mark on them. Both controllers are on the devices tab of system.

    As you can see in the picture above, there is no tab "audio, video controller and game."

    How can I get my sound back?

    Thank you.

    You are the very welcome.

    What worries me is that your device manager does not have the IDT HD audio listed under sound video and game controllers Device Manager.

    Normally, when you install W10, the IDT HD audio device is in the list, and it just doesn't work.

    You can try reinstalling W10 and see what happens.

  • No Audio output device is installed, no sound in Device Mangager Toshiba Satellite Vista

    I have the dreaded red X on the Volume control, "no Audio output device is installed", no. Sound Devices in device Mangager / Toshiba Satellite L355D-S7901 running Vista-32. FixIt seem to fixit, or find.

    The solutions that I have seen and tried on the Web just walk me through the first steps of the three solution and then drop out of cyberspace. I heard sound on this machine before, briefly, and then she returned to the non-cooperative State. I saw a few techno-jibberish once on the drivers are properly installed, to ensure that they are saved and enter into the registry and remove, from repair, screw up as much as you can before throwing the PC to the wall because you don't know what they speak and are to afraid to taste the risky proceedures, restore cannot help , or something.

    What happened, what is the solution of 4th or 5th person has told and Toshiba wants hundreds of dollars to diagnose, and then just says that the computer must be replaced if they are too lazy or too ignorant to investigate and solve problems or reveal the real solutions. Reinstall the correct drivers does not work, there is no folder Sound and the game in Device Manager controller. I'm tenatious.

    I also have a USB Port that Windows doesn't recognize after him malfuncitoned, why? FixIt can't find it, can't fixit. I suspect someone stuck the wrong connector on the USB port and fried something - can't rip out and replace it? I came back home, limited, vision limited, duration of limited attention, limited by the reckless lack of "Technicians" to help. I guess you are supposed to be able to pay and pay and pay for computer assistance, or die with your computer.

    I just want this computer works correctly, as long as it costs, so I can go on the problem in my life.

    Hello

    Did you download the drivers directly from Toshiba for your model particulare?

    Here is a link to that.

    And there are the Toshiba Forums you can ask

    You don't say if you have a Vista DVD that accompanies it.

  • No sound: no audio output device is installed. no choice of audio device in Device Manager.

    I started my pc windows 7 today like any other day, and he has not played the music to start. Then I looked at the volume icon in the corner and there was a big red X on the speaker symbol. I go over it and it displays the message "no audio output device is installed". I was confused, so I went to check the Device Manager and there is no sound Devices(or whatever it is called) tab. I then restarted my computer 3 times and still have no sound. I would try a system restore, but I can't choose restore points after the first start I did this morning. My sound card is a card for the Asus M2N - SLI. Any Suggestions?

    Hi j03d03190,

    • Do you see unknown devices in Device Manager?

    Step 1

    It seems that the Audio drivers are deleted or removed from the computer. I tried to check for audio drivers for your card mother M2N SLI and could not find drivers Audio in Windows 7. However, I suggest to download the Audio from Vista drivers from the Asus site and install it and check if that helps you solve the sound problem. Access the link below and download the Audio drivers for Windows Vista and install it.

    http://support.ASUS.com/download/download.aspx

    Step 2

    You can also run Windows update on your computer and check updates and install and check it it helps you to install the audio drivers and to solve the sound problem. Access the link below and follow the steps to install Windows updates.
