    missing volume control

    volume control was gone. I tried to go into my control panel to use it, but I get an error that says:

    "Windows cannot display the control volume on the taskbar because the Volume control program has not been installed. To install it use Add/Remove programs in Control Panel. »

    I have lost my Windows XP disc in a move and can't reinstall the file to a disk, how to fix this?

    When you use certain features sounds and Audio devices, you see a message like this:

    Windows cannot display the control of volume on the taskbar because the Volume control program has not been installed. To install it use Add/Remove programs in Control Panel.

    It seems that the c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe file is missing.

    This may occur if your antivirus/antimalware application thinks the file is suspicious and quarantines (effectively delete) the file.  You can replace the missing file with a backup copy of the file that is in another folder on your system.

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    Assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive...

    We know that XP keeps copies of critical system files in the following folder:

    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

    Using the Explorer, search for or navigate to the following folder:

    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

    Locate the sndvol32.exe file, right-click, choose copy (it copies the file to the Windows Clipboard).

    If your Solution Explorer settings are not set to display file extensions, you will see only a file called 'sndvol32' which has an icon that looks like to the volume control slider (this is the file you need).

    If the file is missing in the dllcache folder, look for a copy of the file in this folder:

    c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

    Browsing from a level in the following folder:

    c:\Windows\System32

    Right-click on an empty area in the window of c:\windows\system32 and choose Paste to paste in the missing file where it belongs.

    Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace the existing file.

    Now try your features sounds and Audio devices.

    Note that run sfc/scannow will not replace the missing file because it is not this that sfc/scannow does.

  • the volume control is grayed on and no sound

    I use a Mac Pro, purchased in mid-2010, with a 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processor, 13 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC memory, which I've recently updated to El Capitan version 10.11.4.

    I can't try to find where a control can be hidden which let me re - turn on the volume. Nobody knows what it takes to turn on the sound?

    Hello

    The port microphone or line is not because you are looking for this audio * output parameters.
    The microphone is a device of entry so it s not who listed there.

    If you go into the volume settings > options > properties you can switch to HD Audio input.
    Now you can change the volume of the microphone! :)

  • The volume control on the Satellite Pro A200 with Ubuntu 7.10

    I have a Satellite Pro A200GE-1F9, I did recently to dual boot with Vista and Ubuntu 7.10. It's the first time I used Linux and most things are going well so far.

    However, the volume control (a wheel at the front of the laptop) does not control the volume correctly with Ubuntu, rather than increase the volume smoothly as with Vista, it increases in a 1/8 of maximum volume jumps, the on-screen volume control is always smooth. I think that it is at least partly due to the change of a material volume wheel, as with the latest Toshiba, I have used, for a version of software based. It controls the system volume and runs continuously, without stop at maximum or minimum volumes.

    Does anyone know how to change this change in volume for a smooth jump?

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    given that no one here has no idea, nor pilots, nor any information about the driver from toshiba support, nobody will be able to give you some useful information.

    Have you ever google and checked the ubuntu forums? According to me, which will bring you closer the source here instead.
    So just to start to ask in the ubuntu forums because I think that someone is there who maybe has the same problem as you.

    I hope that artistry a kind of programmer. ;)

  • Way to increase the sensitivity of the volume control on Satellite P300

    Hello

    I was wondering if there is a way to increase the sensitivity of the volume control on my P300? On my old toshiba, it's maybe 1 full rotation of the minimum to maximum. On this one, it seems that you are there for about 5 minutes fiddling around with your thumb to get it to change significantly.

    See you soon,.

    On old Toshibas volume control has been ordered mechanically, but now it works electronically and this option doesn't exist.
    It is unclear to me that you can do anything about it.

  • The volume control has mind of its own

    I have a HP1428 DV7 ca, Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit running. Recently my volume control seems to have achieved a clean mind. At first I thought it was related to HP MediaSmart, so I removed it. It stopped at the volume control bar to constantly and irregularly flashing on the screen. However, when I open the mixing table under windows I see that it is always very strange, the volume increases in fits and starts. None of the volume controls at the top of the keyboard do not work. The MediaSmart button stays on and the mute button is not the drawer of the volume control does not work either. I thought that removing MediaSmart and put it back in place, it should correct the problem, he didn't.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It may be a hardware problem with the band capacitive itself, but about the audio, try the following.

    Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp45001-45500/sp45073.exe

    One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box to enable this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When finished, restart the computer and let Windows load completely.  Open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.  'Speakers and headphones' left click once to highlight, and then click the Set Default button - check if you now audio.

    The MediaSmart you make reference to the application's HP MediaSmart SmartMenu, which can be downloaded and installed from the link below - you must have at least a MediaSmart application installed before installing SmartMenu.

    HP MediaSmart SmartMenu.
