XPS13 built in microphone not detected.

On a Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook, running Windows 7 ultimate (downgraded from Windows 8).

The system is not just see the microphones.  On the windows volume control options/recording devices, nothing comes up.  Even on Dell Audio / microphone and Skype microphone.  Can any ideas on how I fix? I tried to download all the drivers on the DELL site using detection of automatic service tag and system DELL detect to find missing drivers, but some chipset drivers listed lead to a blank page without downloading anything.

Go back to the recording of the sound Properties tab (right click the audio icon, and select recording devices), and then click the blank white box, right-click and select devices see off, then do it again and select this option to show disconnected devices.

If the microphone shows always then go to the Read tab and see if the word 'Realtek' is under speakers. If this isn't the case, then the Realtek driver is not installed.

If the driver is there and is still no microphone so it could be faulty. The microphone was working at all with Win 8?

  • Built-in microphone not detected in Windows 7

    Hi all!

    I'm having this problem since I installed Windows 7 on my Acer Aspire 5715z. Right after the installation of the internal microphone has stopped working. First I thought it would be a driver problem, but did not find the specific driver for windows 7 on the ACER Web page.
    I did fi the issue for a while now, but yesterday I re - install Windows 7 and the problem was still there.
    I decided today to find an answer to it. I saw that many users Acer have suffered.
    I went through the Panel--> sound--> recording--> see off / disconnected devices it does not work.
    I ran the windows troubleshooting and nothing happened.
    I went to the Device Manager and in his checked for changes on the hardware. The only item listed here is "high definition audio device" which according to me is not the microphone internal (I think this is supposed to be realtek?). In any case, I uninstall and reinstall and search for the latest drivers.
    I ran the microsoft fixit, but nothing is happening.
    I'm out of ideas. Any help would be most appreciated.
    Thank you very much

    I could solve it by downloading and reinstalling the realtek drivers

    Thank you very much!

  • built-in webcam not detected on the XPS 17 (L702X)

    8.1 Windows 64-bit, the built-in webcam does not appear in Device Manager. Any software that uses webcams does not detect the webcam. He worked until recently. Drivers & downloads in support Dell offers no help because no driver for the webcam. It seems to be a bit stupid because he recommended me to install some things already installed. Or even a few years nVidia graphics card controllers! 'My Dell' application does not offer the posibility to test the webcam, just the microphone. Therefore, none of the solutions I've read here are of no help.

  • Yoga 12 (Win 10): Built-in Microphone "not connected".

    Hello world

    I bought my ThinkPad Yoga 12 just a month ago, upgrades to Windows 10 after a few days. Everything worked well, including speakers and a microphone. Skype has worked well.

    Yesterday, I tried to use Skype but my microphone does not work. I found that no microphone even was to be found in the settings.

    Naturally, I reinstalled the audio driver. Now, there is at least one symbol "Built-in Microphone", but is not connected. Cannot be connected. Troubleshooting tells connect me and external microphone.

    I did both disabled and disconnected devices visible in the menu.

    Anyone knows what is the problem with my microphone and has an idea how to solve this problem?

    Thank you very much!

  • Tecra Z50-A-181-built in microphone not working/not found

    Hello!

    I recently bought for laptop Toshiba Tecra Z50-A-181 supplied with Windows 7 64 bit (have 8.1, too but never installed it).

    Anyway, once I started using it, I discovered that the microphone is not functional or not recognized at all.
    So, what happens is that, once that I plug my headphones into the audio handset Jack / micro, whoever I'm talking (on Skype, for example) to stop to hear me (and my camera is on).

    I tried several things mentioned in other topics, however, the problem does not turn off. In addition, there is no driver for the camera or the bed at the microphone, or whatever.

    In Device Manager there is no extra, unrecognized device and in sound recording options /, no other microphone to use appears.

    I will appreciate if someone can help.
    Thank you in advance!

  • Microphone not detected

    Sound in windows xp

    I have a dell Inspiron 1545 computer laptop with IDT High definition codec sound card.  I spent from windows vista when I had a microphone on the side of the reading, but since I went down to xp I have no microphone on the side of the reading, what can I do to get it fixed?

    You will need to install the specific audio drivers for XP from here:

    http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?os=WW1&catid=-1&dateid=-1&impid=-1&osl=EN&typeid=-1&formatid=-1&servicetag=&SystemID=INSPIRON1545&hidos=WLH&hidlang=en&TabIndex=&scanSupported=True&scanConsent=False

  • Built in microphone does not work on my Tecra A9

    I have a Tecra A9 PTS52A-OEYO3F

    My operating system is XP Professional.

    I'm trying to set up a Skype account without having to buy a plug in microphone. I think that my Tecra A9 has a built in microphone. When I test the equipment via the control panel / sounds and Audio devices / voice / hardware test, an error message indicates that my voice could not be detected. Also, a similar Skype test revealed that my voice could not be detected.

    The user manual on page 4-23, under the heading level Microphone sets out the process to change the logging level. Step 1 requires a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar to reveal devices of recording on the submenu. When I perform the right click of the "speaker" of the menu has revealed icon includes "Open Volume Control" and "Adjust Audio properties". There is no option of "Recording devices" where only the instructions in the manual do not apply.

    I'm not convinced that I have a microphone, and if I do then why it is not working.

    Thank you

    If your Tecra has a build-in webcam so he must have mic too.
    Are you using the original recovery image Toshiba WXP or you have installed Windows XP Home edition on your own?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hi Goldie,

    Right click on the speaker in the taskbar, ranging from recording devices, make sure that you only have one option of microphone, it would be the first step, if you got more than 1, try right click on them and "default setting" for each of them to see if it works.

  • Satellite C650-010 - built in microphone does not

    built in microphone does not work after three weeks. I tried to install the new driver from Toshiba Web site software, but nothing helped. -Webcam with external microphone works well.

    Yesterday, Mike worked for ten minutes, but then cut again.

    Hey,.

    > I tried to install the new driver from Toshiba Web site software
    What driver software that you have installed?
    The microphone belongs to internal webcam, so you need to reinstall the driver for the webcam if internal microphone doesn t work properly.

    > but then cut again.
    Is that mean that the internal MIC is silent? Please check that the windows audio settings if the microphone is classified correctly recorders and set as default device.

  • Skype detects microphone does not detect but no sound through it

    Hello

    I have my headset connected to my card his and my card its connected to my PC via the USB cable. I tested with two cables different and three different ports.

    When I connect my headphone directly on the PC, everything works.

    When I connect it to the sound card, the microphone is detected but when I talk to Skype levels will not upwards, unless I'm talking really loud or put the microphone almost inside my mouth. The thing is, he works outside of Skype. I put the setting on windows to hear what the microphone picks up and I hear what I say, but it does not appear on the levels of Skype.

    Any solution to this?

    Thank you

    And apparently, the sound card has an option "noise gate" turned to 100% which, for some reason, did not allow programs capture levels. I put it completely, and even though the quality seems a bit tipsy, it works now.
