No windows sound & pro 64-bit

I have an intermittent problem (no sound) in all applications. This issue comes and goes this time, nothing I've tried works. I checked the playback devices, they are all together to allow applications to take control of the sound. No sound BTW when using test in the Advanced button playback devices...  I have totally reset firefox and still the question. I get no sound when ANYTHING, music, video streaming through hulu, netflix or Amazon...

I went through the existing threads and none of the suggestions work and yes I checked the cables to make sure they are connected.

As mentioned above, the problem is intermittent.  FoE instance all worked yesterday. Today, after not starting computer no sound again. I'm ready to get back to Vista! Help, please

  • DownGrade Windows 8 Pro 64 bit on 4540 s HP Probook Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    Hello

    can someone tell me the correct procedure to downgrade pre-installed 64-bit Windows 8 Pro that came on my laptop 4540 s newly purchased to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit? Machine itsself comes not with any media. I also read the key is now also integrated into the BIOS. As I intend to replace the 500 GB HDD with a SSD 250 GB, I would like to re - install windows 7 at the same time. I know that you can download the vanilla windows versions 7 of m6mobile.fr and others and then install but I wanted to know if there was a formal process for HP machines. It would be also good to know that the process of extraction of the COA, so I can activate Windows 7 installation completed.

    I am based in the United Kingdom (and an employee of HP)

    (it seems I'm not the only one having this problem - I guess this method works http://www.pcworld.com/article/2015107/downgrading-from-windows-8-to-7-what-you-need-to-know.html?pa... )

    but before could someone confirm that part "call microsoft" will be ok for me if I have no physical cost... also what can I do if I have not a pro windows 7 product key to enter during the installation of windows 7 - because obviously I intend to use the rights to downgrade to windows 8 pro key!).

    advice appreciated.

    Ad.

    Ok...

    so having figured out that I can downgrade sounding MS I took the lead and mounted my new SSD drive and installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. Everything is good. What I need now is some of the correct drivers to get me going.

    If someone could point me to the right for the following, I'd be grateful so I don't waste time to download everything. My version is HP Probook 4540 s C4Y79EA (i5-3210/4 GB RAM/15.6 inches) model British.

    Some of the choices pilot have several versions of pointers to good enjoyed.

    It is mainly in the field of the network drivers for the Wifi and fixed ports.

    Thank you.

    I determined what hardware is in this model.

    WIFI/Bluetooth - download drivers Ralink

    Ethernet card integrated - download the Realtek drivers.

    The rest should be pretty straigtforward...

    Cheers.

  • Intermittent USB mouse freeze on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Tested with several mice that work fine on other computers.

    I am having a frustrating problem where my Wired Optical mouse appears to 'freeze' for 10 seconds on my machine Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Meanwhile, everything else on the computer works fine, including the keyboard (connected through PS2). The mouse does not seem to lose power because down the red LED stays on. At the end of the freeze period, I hear the sound of Windows to disconnect USB, but there is no error or windows pop-up ads of any kind on the screen.

    Some more info about the configuration:

    * Core i7 950 processor
    * 12 GB of RAM
    * Radeon HD4950 video card (or almost)
    * The main SSD drive
    * 2 external powered USB drives, 1 powered MIDI keyboard, 1 USB dongle
    * Windows experience score 7.3

    I tried things that did not work:

    • Turn off all the power management, including the management of power supply for USB, USB hubs-> suspend to win power, etc.
    • Permutation of mouse. The problem came with three different mouse from different manufacturers.
    • Try the mouse on different computers of W7 Pro. Confirmed that the mice are not the problem.
    • Disconnected all other USB devices except the mouse. Problem persists.
    • Uninstalled all the drivers for the mouse and use MS default drivers.
    • Installed the software Microsoft mouse & keyboard center.
    • Installed the software from the manufacturer (ie. logitech) specific mouse driver.
    • Tried every USB port, the front and back, on my computer, including USB3 vs USB2.
    • Scanned for malware (using Malwarebytes)
    • Search for viruses (using Nod32)

    I must point out that NO other devices are having problems on this computer. My external hard drives all work perfectly. My printer when I plug it, works great, like my USB dongle. My MIDI keyboard never loses connection. Even when I have my phone connected Android, which normally creates a huge noise if I unplug it, never disconnects even for a second. It is therefore clearly a kind of mouse problem.

    The problem seems to occur regardless of what I do, although it seems MORE common if I use actually the mouse. If I'm just typing (as I am now) it seems not really to happen. On the other hand, sometimes hours go with no problem and other time it happens literally every few seconds.

    Remove the check to "improve the accuracy of the printer" logic. I had two computers windows 7 x 64 that gives me the same problem. When I tried a wireless mouse, the problem disappeared. they do not use the windows controls.

    Try to reduce the amount of RAM installed on a unique key and try again.

    If you have several hard drives attached, disconnect all except the disk target hard.

    If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

  • Upgrade Windows 7 Pro 32 bit to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    I bought Windows 7 Pro (32 bit) a year ago and I got a disk, the disk of 32 bits, with my purchase. So my question is, how do I upgrade to a 64 bit version of Windows 7 Professional?

    I heard that there is a chance that I could have someone (Microsoft) send me a 64-bit version because they key will work for each version, but it sounds too good to be true... is it? Also, if I can't do this, can I have a 'Windows 7 Professional Upgrade' (64-bit) and boot from the DVD drive and improve it like that or you can during the passage of XP or Vista?
    I guess, the best/most simple/best way to upgrade Windows 7 Pro 32 to 64? Thank you!

    Copies of the retail of Windows 7 include 32-bit and 64-bit discs.  If the copy you purchased only had a dvd then you didn't buy a copy retail, but a copy of the OEM System Builder.  OEM copies do not allow the buyer to two versions of the software.  You can buy a copy at retail to upgrade license (or copy of full license of Windows 7 Professional).  Anytime Upgrade does NOT change from 32-bit to 64-bit.  You must use the retail to change between architectures.

    In the Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit 'Upgrade' disc is identical to the version of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit retail, or is there a difference?

    Yes, all the professional retail DVDs are the same.  This is the product key that determines was looking for, it's a full license or upgrade license.  No matter what type of product key, it is, the installed software is exactly the same Windows 7 Professional.

    "I heard that there is a chance that I could have someone (Microsoft) send me a 64-bit version because they key will work for both versions.

    What you have heard only related to Vista.  Editions of Vista retail below Ultimate contained only a 32 bit dvd and buyers had to order a dvd 64 bit Microsoft for a $10 shipping and handling.  Which does not apply to Windows 7.  All editions of the retail of Windows 7 include the two DVD.  Since you did not purchase a commercial version, Microsoft refer to the OEM for support.  Since there was no OEM, you are out of luck.  That's why an end-user should not buy OEM software directly.

  • Audio problem in Windows 8 Pro 64 - bit...?

    ---

    Sometimes (about 50% of the time), sounds don't work at all, either when using headphones or built-in speakers...

    ---

    When this problem started:

    This problem started on July 10 after a few automatic updates have been installed. According to the history of my update, this is:

    (1) update for Windows 8 for x 64 systems (KB2960837)
    (2) removal tool malware from Windows to Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows Server 2012, 2012 x 64 edition R2 - July 2014 (KB890830)

    ---

    How to solve this problem:

    Right click on "computer".

    Go to 'manage '.

    Go to "Services".

    Right click on "Windows Audio" and "restart".

    Then I restart the laptop and the sound is working again...

    After the above, I did this:

    Went to "playback devices".

    Went to 'Properties' and then 'Advanced' tab

    Unchecked "allow applications to take exclusive control of this device."

    ---

    But still, half the time I start up my system, the problem is recurring and I have to redo the steps above to make it work again... When I go to "Playback devices" and right click on the speaker and select 'Test', I get the following warning message:

    "The device is used by another application.

    "Please close all units are audio playback on this device, and then try again.

    ---

    But according to the Task Manager, there is no other application running which I think could do this... I got a Virus/Malware and did a full system scan and analysis in time start but there is nothing... While I can solve this problem by following the steps above and by restarting Windows Audio, I want a permanent problem solution please... I don't want to have to keep rebooting my audio system to rework...

  • Aurora running, but can not be played on Desktop Windows 7 pro 64-bit

    I've been using Aurora for several years with Windows 7 pro 64-bit with the two latest major 28/29 Auroa just missing from my desk after clicking on the icon on the desktop, I tried to uninstall, but the system told me I had still Aroura running uninstall so I had to reboot my PC, I could uninstall I then reinstalled Aurora and a pinned icon appeared in the taskbar, but when I clicked on the icon on the desktop the hourglass turned but no Aroura started on the desktop, so I went through the whole thing again and uninstalled Aurora and installed Firefox V26 and now it has progressed to the last version that has disappeared as exactly the same way.

    What can I do if I use Aroura again because it is very good and safe to use?

    I can't use the troubleshooting info as I can't see Aurora/Firefox to view or copy/paste the info shown.

    Thank you solved the problem, I restarted the PC and now Aurora works again thanks.

  • HP Pavilion Slimline s3760in D: need help in Clean install Windows 10 pro 64-bit?

    Hello

    For the past few months I am running windows 10 pro where I had to upgrade windows 8.1 pro 32 - bit windows 10 pro 32-bit. If my system is activated in windows 10 pro and it is authentic.

    When I checked in the type of system, it says operating system 32-bit, x 64 processor.  4 GB RAM only 3.12 GB of RAM is usable.

    This means that my processor supports 64-bit operating system. That's why I intend to clean windows install 10 pro and install the 64-bit version so that I can use all 4 GB of RAM.

    That's why went into a tool for creating media and downloaded Mediacreation Toolx64 but when I try to launch the app it shows error "this app cant run on your pc. But Mediacreation tool for 32 bit gently. According to me, given that my current OS is 32-bit so mediacreation toolx64 is not running.

    So I was wondering if I run 32-bit tool mediacreation and choose 'create multimedia installation for another pc' and chosen architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) times, then the clean installation of windows pro 10 OS will I have the option to choose between the version 64-bit and 32-bit version?

    [2] already my windows 10 pro is active in 32-bit version, I get a product key error when I clean install 10 pro for the 64 bit version of windows?

    [3] will be my windows 10 64-bit pro is activated? Since my windows 10 pro turned in a 32-bit version.

    Microsoft memo said "Your PC will activate online automatically as long as the same edition of Windows 10 has been activated successfully on this PC using the free Windows 10 upgrade offer."

    HI Varadar,

    You're right, you choose the installation program of the media creation tool that corresponds to your current system, but create a support for another PC and select 64-bit or both.  I would choose 64-bit.

    Yes, what you plan should work.  Once you have upgraded to Windows 10 32 - bit and Windows checked 10 32 - bit is set, you can use Media Setup to switch to Windows 10 64 - bit.  But... I could ask you to wait a month.  It was reported on the sites a Updatefor Windows 10 is expected in November.  This update will include some changes and corrections that we have already published to our group of insiders test.  The recent blog post is hereand scroll to the bottom of reading on the Activation stuff.  We also wrote about the changes, including the news of your task in our own forum.

    What do you think should work now today, if there is no problem or bug there is no backup.  But if you wait a bit, then the backup as explained will use your Windows 8.1 Pro key into your HP motherboard.

    I hope this helps,

    Charles

    The owners could not get with Windows 8, so they bought Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.

  • Maximum supported size of HARD drive for HP Elitebook 8440p Windows 7 Pro 64 bit runing

    Hello, I just bought a HP Elitebook 8440p "off lease" of Tigerdirect and seeks to upgrade the two memory (from 4 GB to 8 GB) and put in the eligible of the biggest HARD drive I can. Either a 512 GB SSD or a 1 TB WD hybrid WD BLACK2 (1 TB HDD / 120 GB SSD Combo drive in a single package!). I would like to see more large disk addressable by using Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit OS since I don't seem able to find this info on the web. HP offers only only a 256 GB SSD in its specifications. but I didn't know if it was do limitations of BIOS or availability at the time of production, even for the HARD drive to 512 GB.

    Also, I would like to know if 9.5 mm compliant Bay that it needs to be for the WD drive. Can't find that either, and while the new laptop has not yet happen, all measure exactly the same way regarding what works and what simply cannot be "cheated".

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and NO information to that effect would be Greatl appreciated!

    Essentially the reason why you do not have a maximum size of hard drive is because there is not everything. Between SATA and 64-bit OS', worrying about maximum size of hard drive is a thing of the past. Are the biggest readers found in the manual, as you suspected him, just a function of the market at the time of manufacture. It was a few years ago now, it is so understandable that the offerings were "at the time" more thin than now.

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    Page 4-9 shows the procedure of the Bay and the replacement of the hard disk. The Bay is made for a 9.5 mm thickness 2.5-inch wide SATA hard but the new 7 mm readers also works. The black hybrid drive requires some software (included in the package) to treat the two drives in Windows and I read a modest amount of disappointment in the documentation about them. If you can afford the 512 GB SSD go in this direction and you will not be sorry. I use a Samsung 840 Evo and it has worked perfectly for me for almost 2 years and the most recent 850 I hear is even better.
