Satellite A120: No sound after install Vista

Hello

I was handed a second laptop to work - so not sure if the sound is already working but...

(1) I installed Vista Business Edition
(2) no sound through the speakers or headphones
(3) no error in the Windows Device Manager.

-Reinstalled the Realtek drivers on the site of pilots tosh
-
This is updated from windows
-
-During playback of an audio file, that the graphic equalizer appears normally - that is bouncing up and down with the beat

Now of ideas!

Thanks in advance!

Hey Buddy

I think I know what could be the problem.
The sound should be set as high as possible before the installation of Vista!

In addition, you should check if the sound wasn't mute runig the previous operating system.
This may affect the sound on the new Vista operating system installed!

I searched a bit on sites Web of Toshiba and the Central knowledge and found this useful article about the problems of sound on Vista OS

[Its utility to turn Mute Off | http://support.toshiba.com/support/viewContentDetail?contentId=1671893&pf=true]

I would appreciate any comments from you

  • Problems with sound after installing Vista Ultimate SP1 on HP Pavilion Dv4

    I lost sound after installing Vista SP1 Ultimate on my HP Pavilion Dv4... everything was fine before. Help, please.

    Go to the HP support website and search for Windows Vista drivers for your specific model number. Also look for recent updates, even if your PC comes with Windows Vista preinstalled.
    http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/support.html

    If there are Vista drivers then download to a folder on your hard drive and install all of them, starting with the installation card mother/chipset drivers, then the SATA, LAN, Audio, drivers and other device drivers.

  • Re: No sound after install Vista - Tecra M7

    I improved my Tecra M7 to Vista (and then upgraded to Vista SP1) but the computer is no longer plays sounds (no music, no sound system - nothing)

    I installed the latest Realtek HD driver, I have the latest version of the Bios.

    Device Manager indicates that everything is working. "Speaker" icon tells me that his work (the green bar follows the beat of the music)

    The volume & button Mute works - I can't get the "speaker" modifying, turning to the top/bottom/inhibition icon. I tried the headphones in and out.

    I checked the bios if the sound card has been disabled it - but it seems that there is no possibility to change the settings of the sound card in the bios.

    Does anyone have an idea on what I'm doing wrong here?

    Maybe I can help you;

    I read on a sound problem after installation of Vista it happened if XP was preinstalled on your laptop and the mute box was accidentally activated.

  • Satellite Pro L40 - sound after installing Windows XP SP3 driver

    Hello

    I bought the Satellite Pro L40 about 6 months ago and the speed of the laptop is too slow with windows Vista. So I decided to install an old copy of windows XP that I had purchased earlier. I updated the windows SP3 installation before installing the drivers.

    Now, all the drivers have been installed correctly except the audio driver. I downloaded the XP version of the driver on the toshiba site, but it did not work. So I though that maybe the vista version would work, so I downloaded that. But that no longer works.

    Can someone suggest a solution where I can get the audio driver to work? Preferably without having to get the reinstalled windows again.

    Please help me...!

  • Satellite L300 - no sound after installing Win XP

    Hi all

    had to install xp because vista is not good for me. the system does not install sound card drivers, and Device Manager, there is no listed his card.
    I have yellow? marks on "PCI Device" I think it's the soundcard and "network controller".

    I searched this forum and got some results that looked like they can solve the problem, but unfortunately the recommended fix was removed by Microsoft.

    * Before would be to install the audio driver, you must first install the *.

    * KB888111.* and AUDIO KB835221 hotfix
    * Here are the patches from Microsoft. Search the net for download *.

    * After installation, restart the operating system, and then try to reinstall the driver sound again.*

    Microsoft, still have KB888111, but no KB835221, as they claim that it has been proven to fail!

    any ideas?

    very appreciated

  • Satellite U300 - no sound after installing Win XP

    Hello

    I just reinstalled windows xp Prof today and upgraded to service pack 3.

    Sound has worked well in the first until a reboot, no more noise.
    A few reinstalls the drivers now, sometimes he says its all installed fine, other times it says no audio devices installed.

    In both cases there is no sound...
    Sometime on a restart (many reboots today) the sound suddenly came back to life, to die again at the next reboot...

    Im hoping someone can help me with this problem cos Im leaving on vacation tomorrow and really need my sound ;)

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    You should on Windows XP two audio patches if you have a card high definition audio:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/835221
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/888111

    These updates are in integrated SP3, you must install Service Pack 3 or the updates first, then the audio driver. So in your case, I would like to delete the sound driver, use CCleaner and then install the latest version from the Toshiba site.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A30 - no sound after installing the audio driver

    I've updated the audio driver on my laptop A30 today on the Toshiba site with download of Realtek Semiconductor Corporation, and now the sound does not work. It's my single stereo so I feel really bad. The original driver discs are stored and I'm not very techie so help please...

    Thanks a lot for your time, Phill

    Hi Phill,

    First of all, I would like to check the sound settings in the control panel to make sure that none of them are extinguished, and that "dumb" is not checked. Also check that the volume on the side of your A30 control is enough at full volume.

    In the case where everything is set correctly, I would then reload the driver Realtek of the utility CD and tools of Toshiba. If you do not have access to the CD then you can restore the driver to its original state by selecting the audio device in Device Manager"and roll back driver it.

    If all else fails you should be able to 'restore' your system from the last point before your installation of the new driver restore.

    Hello

    I installed Win XP SP3 on my Tosh laptop.
    I have everything works except the sound.

    We know of a compatible for this model sound card driver in XP.
    I downloaded the bucket full of HD and AC97 Realtek drivers, but none seems not to work.

    I'm really struggling with this one and do not want to go back to Vista.

    Reall any help is appreciated. Robbie.

    Hello

    I had the same problem with sound after installing XP everything seemed fine but no sound!

    I found a solution;
    You need to install the MS patches; KB835221 and KB888111
    These hotfixes must be installed before installing driver sound!

    But I put t know how it works with SP3. I think that you need to remove the SP3 first and then you could install the patches mentioned.

    However, once the patches have been installed, you must follow with the Realtek HD audio driver installation. The latest driver should be placed also on the Realtek page too.

    Well, in my case it worked so it should work on your laptop too!
