When I play games of cards installed with Windows I have no sound. Other games have sound

I don't get any errors of any kind.  My sound is turned on and please, I'm not in computer science and plain English need when or if you answer.  I'd appreciate any help you could give me.

HiSnowy0745,
 
Thanks for visiting the site of the community of Microsoft Windows!
 
I would like to ask you a few questions to better understand:
 
(a) when what happened?
(b) download you and install a software recently?
(c) update do you have installed? An update of Windows? An update of the third party software? Update the audio driver?

You can check the audio settings of the game in the game by clicking on settings.

You can also restore the game by right click on the game file, click on restore previous versions and check
 
 
Hope this information helped!

Let me know if it did

Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • Satellite A500-1 - stops when I play games

    Hello!

    I'm having some serious heat and fan with my Toshiba laptop problems. First data:
    The laptop is on and a half a year old. His turning point under Windows 7 64-bit. I cleaned it about 2 days ago and many times before (dust in the fan cooling etc..). Toshiba drivers are up-to-date and I already use a cooling block.

    When I play games sometimes, my laptop suddenly stops immediately, due to overheating problems. The strange thing is that, when this happens, the fan is not nearly at maximum speed. When I restart the computer after such a judgment, the fan fire suddenly at maximum speed, until the laptop even once cooled.

    I started watching my CPU and GPU, and my fan speed temperatures while playing games, and I recognized, that the temperatures increase normally, but most of the time the fan remains at its current speed. Even if Toshiba PC Health Monitor shows, that the fan speed goes from 40% to 90% the fan is actually at a low speed.

    From time to time it happens that the fan suddenly triggers her speed, but it lowers again after 1 or 2 minutes, while the indicated fan speed remains constantly at 90%. Somehow, I'd understand if the laptop would be closed despite the entirely fan running, but insufficient fan controlling? Come on Toshiba.

    In addition this problem worsens every day. Anyone who has any suggestions to solve this problem?

    Greetings
    Thomas?

    Hey Buddy,

    Interesting story, but how do I clean the fan exactly? Did you use a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans?
    Another reason could be the display driver itself. As you can see in other threads if you are using a Toshiba display driver they might cause of overheating because they don t have a protection against overheating and other thermal management. So it is important to use only Toshiba display drivers.

    What version of BIOS you have installed right now?

    AFAIK BIOS version latest contains another management fan so I'll try to update. You can download the latest version here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads

    In general the fan will be controlled automatically and you can t he control you. Just make sure you use power plan to high performance for the games.

  • Satellite M60 freezes when I play games

    Hello

    I bought a satellite M60, since 6 months ago.
    Somethimes when I played a game (Diablo II: LOD) then the phone freeze after 1.5 h.
    But only when I play games.

    Please help me.

    (Sorry my engl. is not so good because German Ia´m)

    Hello

    To me, this looks like an overheating problem.
    It s a fact while playing the games the CPU and any other devices works with maximum performance. In this case all devices produce heat much and the temperature rises.
    If the cooling modules not run successfully if it possible of s the device freezes or stopped without any warnings.
    In my opinion, you should check the fans and try to clean it with a vacuum cleaner.

  • My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games.

    My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games. Now it is not always the case, just sometimes. The other day I was playing Sims 3 all day, literally, with the graphics settings maxed out and had no problem. The next day, he would crash as soon as it finished loading, even with the graphics settings at the bottom. Today, it was working fine this morning and now it crashes again. I had the same problem on and off with other games as well, Halo 2, Kings Bounty, UT 3. Here is my system:

    OS - Vista Ultimate 32 bit
    Processor: Core 2 Quad Q9400 @ 2 .66GHz
    RAM - 4 x 1 GB PC6400 DDR2/800
    MB - MSI P7N SLI - FI
    HARD drive - 150 GB x 2 (Raid 0) Raptor 10 k RPM
    PSU - 1000 watts
    GPU - NVidia GeForce 9800GT 1 GB (x 2 in SLI)

    And the error I get from Event Viewer:

    Filter event with the query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Processor' AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace '//./root/CIMV2' because of error 0 x 80041003.» Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is resolved.

    I got the error almost everyday since I got the computer, about 10 months ago, but it only blocks the computer if I play a game. I tried the 'fix' that removes the WMI event viewer 10 error, but everything done was make sure the error is not logged. I also tried another fix I found me delete the files in the repository, but that no longer works. I also run scans of complete system of virus/malware Spybot Search & Destroy and AVG 8 and verified the updated driver for my hardware. I also ran diagnostic tool memory. Who has good/clean/current. Can it be fixed or what I have to reinstall the OS?

    Hi JerHekSr,

    Thank you for using answers Forum.

    The first thing that comes to mind would be to check the motherboard manufacturer for an update of the firmware/BIOS.

    The error message mentions "loadpercentage > 99' which looks like you are running may at maximum load of the CPU while the game and that is the cause of the crash. You could try a clean boot to prevent the using CPU resources while you play to see if it makes a difference of strtup programs.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts. This article describes how to solve problems in Windows Vista by performing a clean boot. This article also describes how to start the Windows Installer service and how to reset the computer so that it starts as usual.

    Note When you perform a clean boot, you may temporarily lose some functionality. When you start the computer as usual, the function returns. However, you may receive the error message, or you can experience the original behavior.

    If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.

    a. log in the computer using an account with administrator rights.

    b. click Start collapse this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.

    The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .

    c. under the general tab, click Selective startup , and then clear the Load Startup items check box. (The box use the Boot file is not available.)

    d. on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft services check box and then click on disable all .

    Note Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.

    e. click OK , and then click restart .

    Step 2: Enable half the services

    a. follow steps 1a and 1B to start the System Configuration utility.

    b. click on the Services tab and then click to select the hide all Microsoft services check box.

    c. Click to select half of the check boxes in the Service list.

    d. click OK and then click restart .

    Step 3: Determine whether the problem returns

    If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have initially enabled in the Service list.

    If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the Service list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

    If only one service is selected in the list of services , and you the problem persists, the service selected the cause of the problem. Go to step 6. If no service is causing this problem, go to step 4.

    Step 4: Enable half of the startup items

    a. perform a clean boot by repeating step 1.

    b. click on the Startup tab and then click to select half of the check boxes in the startup item list.

    c. click OK , and then click restart .

    Step 5: Determine whether the problem returns

    If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have originally selected in the startup item list.

    If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the startup item list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

    If only one startup item is selected in the startup item list, and you still experience the problem, start selected in the list element is the service that is causing the problem. Go to step 6.

    If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely the cause of the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the hide all Microsoft services check box in each step.

    Step 6: Resolve the problem

    After you determine the startup item or the service that is causing the problem, contact the manufacturer of the program to determine if the problem can be solved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click to clear the check box of the element of the problem.

    Step 7: Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    Click on start to reduce this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.

    The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .

    On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK .

    When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart .

    Adobe has a check box to enable the automatic update in the window of the first or the second update.

    In the settings of Windows updates, you can set Windows updates to allow all users to install updates Windows and install to automatically when they are available.  You can also set it to just warn you when updates are available so that you can download and install it at a convenient time.

    @ Ken... I tried installinng windows vista by using the recovery disk that will get a customer with the computer dell laptop... and then he was trying to install vista on my computer... It works fine when installing files, but it is and stucks where he says 'finish installation' and he won't do anything after that... I tried to restart my computer and I could see Microsoft coportation logo and then my computer stucks to this screen and wont connect in... not sure what exactly to do... by the ways for your reply thanks

    You cannot use recovery discs to install with, if not for the exact model computer that you install.  You need a full installation detail of the model of Vista operating system you want to install since you don't downgrade your operating system to a system that offers no right of demotion.
