• 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 had a few glitches to mail to work but got there. Then I realized that I had no sound. The volume control is grayed and the button is at MAX, but there is no sound.

  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?

• My audio is on the Audio Digital (S/PDIF), and I have NO SOUND.

  The problem is started when installing windows 7 on my desktop, or when installing a new audio or video card I'm not positive exactly when it started to happen. But all of a sudden the audio device only I got was Audio Digital (S/PDIF), which in fact did nothing.

  I figured out how to get the speakers on my monitor to work, I plugged the speaker cable into the port 'in line', blue and stakeholders have worked.  The cord is green light... the port is blue... it doesn't look right, it seems that it should be in the green port right? But it does not work like that.

  Anyway if I plug the monitor or headphones on in blue 'line' port it affects my speakers 'Speakers' "high definition Audio Device".  And I have audio.

  But I need to have a microphone that works as well for a class I have. But when I plug the headphones that it doesn't work, it doesn't recognize the microphone or even acknowledge that I plugged anything.  The helmet part works by plugging in 'line' port, but the microphone does not work.  He said that the recording device is set to Audio Digital (S/PDIF) and nothing else is listed in Device Manager.

  I have seen this problem posted elsewhere and I followed a lot of steps, I tried to download drivers realtek, windows update, update drivers for my Nvidia graphics card, and I even download Everest to be sure of my Audio device. It's what came SigmaTel STAC9220 A1 @ Intel 82801 GB ICH7 - High Definition Audio Controller [a-1].  The link to update the drivers was useless, but I looked online and found one on the site of Dell, he said it was for Sigma Tel STAC92XX... which should include mine.  I downloaded it, rebooted, and all of a sudden I got no. AUDIO DEVICE AT ALL.  Windows said I had no sound, and he tried to install the drivers, although I'm sure that I had done that we found my Sigma Tel Audio Controller.  Windows cannot install the, then suddenly he tried again and said it was successful.  But I'm right back where I started, still consider the Audio Digital (S/PDIF) is my recorder, speakers do not work unless it is plugged into the blue port in 'line '.   Nothing has changed...

  If anyone can help please let me know. I appreciate it.

  It happened to me, I just unplug and reconnect the plug and she is back to normal

  If equipment has replaced the onboard audio hardware, the BIOS should then be edited, disable

  the integrated audio controller. If or other configurations exist, then we can use both, for to do, with only old

  installed audio hardware, Vista, mgr open the device, scroll down to sound, expand the tree, look for the hardware, R.click

  in this regard, select "Uninstall", output device mgr, pc shutdown... Install the new card, start the pc, enter the BIOS, disable the old, start

  Vista. Install new, install any drivers/software, vista installs auto... Once through, restart pc 2 X or so, once through, at startup.

  enter in BIOS, select old material, exit, install vista it automatically. The only problem, both are installed, but can only be

  run at a given time. It is / was average XP, probably the same vista. You can go to run, type: DXDIAG to run the

• 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. ;)

• 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.

• "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. »

  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.
