Speakers suddenly stopped working

my sound has suddenly stopped working. After talking to a few knowledgeable people, I uninstalled the Realteck driver, and then I had to come its decent through the speakers! It is a HP desktop computer, a6750y

Then I tried to re - install the driver. Although the pilot had the same name, it was more recent than previously on the system, so I re-installed and once more, no noise. So I uninstalled this version, but now I have no sound!

I get sound through the headset.

Here's what I installed, but it does not work.

William, welcome to the forum.

Did you check in "Control Panel / Sound" to make sure that your audio device is selected by default?  I had happened to me several times over the years. especially, if I made any changes to my computer.

Please, click on "Thumbs Up +" if I helped you and click "Accept as Solution" If your problem is resolved.

  • Satellite C855 - speakers suddenly stopped working

    I have a Satellite C855-1J2 running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium SP1. I turned on December 21, 2012 and installed five applications - the latest versions of Firefox, CeltX, Notepad ++, Open Office and Microsoft Security Essentials (I removed McAfee). I have the latest Windows. Since then I have not installed other applications.

    Three days later, my laptop was working fine until, suddenly, that the speakers stopped working. I can identify the specific incident that caused it. I connected a pair of perfectly ordinary headphones using the standard headphone jack, power the laptop off, after that I was done listening but headphones plugged on the left.

    When I turned on the laptop back the next day, no sound came in headphones.
    When I unplugged them, no sound came from the speakers.
    I rebooted my machine and the speakers worked fine.

    However, I am now in a situation where whenever I turn on my laptop, the speakers do not work and they will work again when I restart then. A little investigation of this problem shows the following...

    Whenever I turn on my laptop and go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> manage Audio devices I see two items:

    (1) ' - high definition Audio Device - speakers not plugged"with a speaker greyed out icon with a red arrow.

    (2) "audio digital (S/PDIF) - high definition Audio Device - default device" with a colored external amplifier icon (it looks a bit like a DVD player) with a green check mark. There is an icon of audio level next to him that shows sound whenever the sound is played on my laptop, but no sound is audible, either through my speakers or headphones.

    Whenever I then reboot my laptop and go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> manage Audio devices I can see an article:
    "Speakers - Realtek High Definition Audio - Default Device" with a colorful speaker and a green arrow icon. The sound works perfectly well.

    I already looked online and the Toshiba forums for a solution to this, but while I found lots of people with similar problems of speaker with Toshiba Satellite laptops, I have not found a solution (and when I say something, I mean something a little more useful that "have you tried completely reinstalling your operating system') so this thread.

    Even if a reboot is currently to solve my problem, I obviously shouldn't have to restart my machine at all in order to get something as simple as his, so my questions are:
    (1) what is the cause of this problem - in other words, why what is happening?
    (2) what is the Toshiba solution to this problem?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    It seems to me that the issue you described above that the speakers would not be chosen as device by default, but the Audio Digital (S/PDIF).
    Somehow the audio driver cannot detect the first initialization of the system speakers.

    I don't know why this happened but I have two proposals:

    (* 1) * uninstall the audio driver from the system. Download the driver from his most recent of the Toshiba page and install it after restarting the laptop first.

    (* 2) * if installing the audio driver is not enough, the last resort would be the recovery of the system.

    (> 2) what is the Toshiba solution to this problem?

  • Internal speakers Satellite C640 suddenly stopped working

    Hi friends,

    My satellite c640, internal speakers suddenly stopped working but works fine when the headphones or external sources are connected
    Is this a hardware problem?

    I m using win 7 64 bit and I tried to install the drivers but seems to be a hardware problem

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I don't know if it is a hardware issue of m.
    You may need to check certain settings.

    In Control Panel-> sound-> the Read tab.
    You should see the speakers selected as the default device.
    You can also click these speakers to the right and you should see a few options:
    Speaker Setup
    test
    Disable
    and so on.

    Test the speaker first. In my case, a short tone is displayed. You can also mark the speaker and click the properties button. You will see a second window with tabs. Check the second tab called LEVEL. Here, you can change the sound level.

    What happen exactly when you try to reinstall the sound driver? You get errors?

  • Satellite C650 - sound suddenly stopped working

    Hello.

    I bought this laptop the month last November.
    in any case, around a week or two ago, the noise suddenly would not work.

    He started making strange noises when I put in the headphones and speakers just made no noise at all never.
    I did a lot of weird things - like system restore, reinstall audio drivers but nothing worked until I updated the bios, then everything went well and the sound worked again.

    However, today, the sound suddenly stopped working again. I tried to re - install the current bios but InsydeFlash says: "the version of the ROM file is the same BIOS version" and just closes.

    I searched the internet for an older version of the bios, but when I try to install it, InsydeFlash said: 'the version of the ROM file is not newer than the version of the BIOS' and of course, I know that but then it closes too!

    I'm not really good at computers or anything, any help at all would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I recommend checking some options first;
    -check if mute is not activated
    -check if all the volume controls are set to a higher value
    -check if the sound using headphones

    If this is not successful, you must reinstall the audio driver.
    First go to Device Manager and uninstall the audio driver. Restart the device
    Download the audio driver from the Toshiba page, then reinstall it. Reboot once again and test the sound.

  • Satellite NB10T-to-10F - webcam suddenly stopped working

    Hello
    I got the laptop TOSHIBA SATELLITE NB10T-A-10F
    The web cam has suddenly stopped working
    I tried
    Updated bios even without result
    Here is the picture of Device Manager

    In various cases, the webcam can be enabled and disabled in the BIOS
    This option would typically appear in the BIOS under: Advanced-> System Configuration
    Please check this box.

    Otherwise, you need to know also that the webcam driver installation isn't necessary if you use the system Win 8 or 8.1 win because such driver is already part of the system.

    If the BIOS does not have the power option webcam (Advanced-> System Configuration) I would recommend you to retrieve the computer laptop back to the factory to check settings if possible hardware malfunction would be responsible for this issue.

    Hi - the touchpad on my Satellite Pro L870 - 18G (Windows 8) has suddenly stopped working (after less than 2 months use of)-which makes the phone rather difficult to use. There is nothing wrong with the driver - according to the Device Manager, but I tried to reinstall when even (did not help).

    Why device manager says that there is no problem when there is a very clear?

  • Satellite L50Dt - A - touchpad suddenly stopped working

    Hello
    I'm not a part of L50Dt-A Satellite. PSKM2A. It is running Windows 8.1.

    Last night the touchpad suddenly stopped not working, no cursor on the screen.
    The little mouse on the touchpad indicator has not been and is not yet lit.
    So I pressed the Fn + F5 key so many times, but that didn't work back.

    I went to the mouse properties in Control Panel, and under the hardware, it is listed.
    In Device Manager, there is nothing under the mouse either.
    I went to the site of Toshiba and downloaded the driver for the touchpad.

    However, on installation, it says that this is impossible because the computer already has one.
    I need to uninstall and reinstall.
    However, I don't find the touchpad synaptics original anywhere to uninstall driver.

    Everything is updated via windows update and I ran the troubleshooting tools and that you have restarted, and so far, nothing has worked.

    I plugged in an external mouse so I can use it.
    But I'd like my touchpad mouse works again.

    Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    > Yesterday the touch pad suddenly stopped working...
    I ve never been faced with this problem, but try first to make back the OS to an earlier time using system restore just to see what will happen.

    In this whole thing that it is confusing that touchpad isn't listed in the Manager under the mouse devices and other pointing devices.
