I recently Got vista home premium 64 bit and my microphone is not working. It says microphone is connected and working. (not a headset), but it is not recieving any sound. My speakers do work. I have a x-48 ds4 motherboard, by the way. All drivers are updated, it just doesn't work.
View 9 RepliesThis worked for me before but I messed it up. I used to be able to record the sound coming from my computer and play it to my microphone right away as it goes. Meaning when I record something, it would record whatever is playing on the computer. But I forgot how to make that setting.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIn XP I could record audio with sound recorder from anything I could hear. For example, if I was playing a WAV file, or listening to a song on the internet, I could record it. Now in Vista it only allows me to record from my microphone. I checked disabled devices and still can not get anything but the microphone to show up. Is there anyway around this besides sticking an audio cable from the headphone jack into my mic input? So far Vista has me aggravated with things I have lost, you would think a newer operating system would allow you more flexibility, not take it from you.

But, If we have restarted PC, mostly the problem solved for that time. some times, when I use some audio files, sound crackles and stop working, windows media player error code C00D11B1 appears and sound has gone untill it is restarted. Sometimes, automatically sound goes and it should be restarted to solve the problem! I hav checked device manager, and it says all the sound devices are working properly..
View 4 Replies View Relatedoh the joys of Vista... once again my microphone isn't working.. it's a front mic.. when I go to configure it it shows TWO front-mics.. why is it showing two when I only have one? and why does it say "working" next to "Rear Mic"?? I don't have a "Rear" mic, whatever that is.... again, main question: why does it show TWO front-mics? (and how do I know which one is the one I have?) (am SO SICK of Vista.. anybody wanna buy a PC? am getting closer and closer to switching to a mac, I swear...)

Recently, the built-in microphone has stopped working and I am unable to make calls with Skype or to use the Sound recorder, all I hear when I playback is very strong background noise. I tried with headphones with the same result. I tried all the solutions proposed by Skype, test call, mic check etc but ..no luck! I went to Control Panel and Sounds, the microphone is shown as "working" and the driver is correctly installed and updated. I played around with the levels but it doesn't seem to change a thing.....I don't know what to do anymore!

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have Dell Inspiron 1520 and I have issue to built in microphone is not working. I tried to execute the Sigma Tel driver from Dell Driver and Support website but prompted 'Exit Error; Error : Device Object not present, Restart system and run setup. Then, asked Dell support to help and they are not really helpful, after System Restore and drivers upload and finally asked to reformat the laptop........ Anyway, this is what works for me.
1) Download the Sigma Tel driver from Dell Support Drivers page and save it in Desktop
2) Shutdown your computer
3) Start your computer and press F8 at the Dell Logo page
4) Select Safe Mode (not others)
5) Proceed to work on Safe Mode
6) Right-click the Sound icon and activate the Sound icon
7) Select Recording device.
8) If still not working, then execute the Sigma Tel driver that saved in desktop then, shutdown the computer and start as normal, you may see the system able to detect the built in Microphone then.

Re: Microphone Wont Connect.................
I've a problem with my on-board SoundMax 1988B (SupremeFxII) in bundle with MB Asus P5E. In Vista64 Ultimate all SoundMax's drivers found (also ASUS_BlackHawk_v30) don't working (error code 10) instead Microsoft's drivers WORKING BUT the microphone don't working. In XP-32bit microphone working ONLY the first time after a clean installation of drivers and software SoundMax, launch Skype and the MIC don't working definitively. Microphone is setting correctly like RECORDING DEVICES but it's "death".
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a really annoying issue with Vista Ultimate SP1.
My PC specs are as follows:
Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40 Ghz
Nvidia 680i SLI PCI-E
2x Geforce 6800 GS
HD Realtek Audio (onboard)
4.0 GB RAM
My issue is that I can't get any non-USB microphone to be picked up on any input, front or rear panel. I have installed the newest Realtek Audio HD drivers (2.00) and just recently did a fresh install of Vista with SP1 thinking that that would solve the issue. My system is fully up to date according to Windows Update.
However, though the sound manager realizes when I plug in a microphone, there is absolutely no level of input no matter how much I yell into it. I have two separate microphones (both working on other computers i.e my laptop's Vista install) which are not picked up at all.
I have cross checked and triple checked that the sound settings are all unmuted and corresponding within Realtek's sound manager as well as Vista's. This solves nothing. There is still no recognition of a working mic.
I am totally stumped as the microphone used to work on Vista when I had the automatic HD Audio Driver installed from Microsoft and then suddenly stopped. However, I have since tried to revert to the old driver but to no avail.
I have Vista Ultimate 64, and it is showing that is connected to the internet, however it will not open webpages, do updates, etc.... It also will not let me into the router (192.168.1.1), just says it's not connected. For what it is worth, it also will not connect when plugged directly into the modem. DHCP is on. I am on a laptop (XP) using a wireless connection through the same router now, so I know the internet is working. Yes I have read the forums to death for ideas, I am about out.

I recently upgraded to windows vista and my SD X-Fi no longer works. I've gone through every setting possible but there is no sound. Is there some special driver I need?
View 9 Replies View RelatedBack in June I installed Vista onto my machine (prior to this I ran xp for 3 years and the sound worked). I was ok with the sound not working since I had a bluetooth headset which worked fine...It's starting to get annoying now. I have a gigabyte motherboard with AC'97 (ALC850 codec) on board sound card. The driver is up to date. I have the volume icon, and it shows my speakers in the play back device section. When I play an audio file, the green bar lights up on the speaker icon.
I can't find the thread now but I did try the suggestion of opening up the playback devices, right clicking in an empty area and showing all disabled devices...there wasn't any devices hidden. Hopefully I provided enough information, if not please ask. I really don't want to buy a sound card but it's looking like I might not have a choice.
I installed the freshest realtek drivers to go with my IP35 motherboard and my Logitech x-530 5.1 surround still wont play the center or subwolfer speakers. In Vista-64s audio settings I played around with different configurations and did wire re-assigning that didn't work either, it seems people are having similar problems. Anyone have a fix for this?
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhile trying to uninstall Comodo, I had an error and the computer froze. I shut it off and it wouldn't boot - not even in Safe Mode. So I used ERUNT to fix the Registry from a command prompt. Unfortunately, the latest ERUNT file was corrupted - so I had to go back about a week. The computer then booted, but I found many changes in some of my data and settings. Also, I cannot get the sound to work. I again used ERUNT from Windows with the same backup I used from the command prompt. All indications on the computer indicate that the sound is working. But when I try to test the speakers and microphone, I get a message which says there is no sound. I have uninstalled the two sound items in Device Manager and used find hardware to reinstall them. I even reinstalled the drivers. Device Manager says there is no problem with the sound items and they say they are working properly.

I had the Realtek Hi Def 1.75 drivers..tried reinstalling them...not fixed. tried installing 1.74...not fixed. tried new chipset drivers...not fixed tried new video drivers...not fixed Seems common on the web... yet not resolved yet?
When i had XP on my computer everything was working fine. I did an overlay of Vista and now any audio device with a jack won't work.. My USB headphones do... I have gone through all the playback settings, searched through all of control panel to do with sound. I have downloaded the necessary realtek drivers (High Definition Audio Device) and nothing. I have also tried plugging the jack in the front instead of the back. The speakers work on any XP machine... just having troubles with my vista machine.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a problem, since I rebooted my computer, (I have windows vista) HP Computer / Since I rebooted, my sound works on the computer no problem, BUT the earphone jack doesn't work. Now, the computer sees the earphones, but it doesn't work, no sound comes-out of the earphones, I still hear the sound from the computer.
What can I do to solve this problem? I have tried everything, like I said, the computer read the earphones, but no sound comes-out, even if the earphones wouldn't work, the sound would be in the earphones but if broken, just wouldn't work. Now all the earphones I tried work, just no sound! .
I just recently formatted and reinstalled Vista because i changed my motherbored and Processor so i felt like a new start. After waiting for all the Windows updates to finish i turned on some music and my Sound was messed up, i have sound it just dosn't seem to work right.On some ill be able to hear everything but the singer and on others and hear only the singer. This also effects games, i turn on my scarface seeing it was closest game near me and installed it, on that i can't hear Scarfaces voice, or the cars around me but i can hear other people speak. Does anyone know whats wrong with my sound? I use the soundcard that is built onto my motherbored because i have never had need of a Sound card in the past. my new motherbored is an MSI motherbored and my processor is Intel core 2 duo.
View 9 Replies View RelatedFew days back, I was installing/uninstalling some programs. I don't know what went wrong, but I found the links in "Computer" are not working. When I open "My Computer" ("Computer" in Vista), all the links like "Device Manager", "Remote Settings" etc are not working. It says for "Device Manager" - "Windows cannot find '%SystemRoot%\system32devmgmt.msc". However, if I run the same command from a DOS window, it exists. This is same for all the other links.
My sound icon in the task bar is also marked a permanent red cross. If I open Volume Mixer, it says - No audio device found. But I can still hear sound.
having no success with vista at all. It randomly freezes after a few minutes, even when just sitting on the desktop. Keyboard and mouse do not work when this happens. It has done this everytime i have turned it on. Have all up to date drivers and latest bios. The sound was working fine, but turned it on yesterday morning and now it has stopped working. When playing music, the equaliser when you left click on the sound icon in the tray shows activity, but nothing out of the speaker. Have tried reinstalling the driver but had no success, and also using different speakers.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOn my Auzen X-Fi Prelude 7.1 under Windows Ultimate 64-bit, I noticed that all audio recorded by my microphone (connected via 3.5mm jack into the sound card - I don't have this problem with USB microphones) would play back heavily distorted, as if I were speaking through a spinning fan. Anyway, I thought I would post a solution that appears to work for me (so far):
1. Right-click on the volume icon in the task bar and select 'Recording Devices'.
2. Ensure that the microphone is set as the Default recording device (indicated by a white tick mark in a green circle).
3. Select the microphone and click on Properties. The microphone properties window pops up.
4. Click on the 'Custom' tab and check the box for 'Microphone +20dB Boost'. This increases the microphone's sensitivity to sound..... now play back free of distortion - test this with a program such as Applian's Freecorder. While the sample rate setting appears to 'stick', I find that whenever my computer comes out of Sleep mode or reboots, the 'Microphone +20db Boost' check box goes back to being unchecked. Anyway, if you have been frustrated by distorted audio playback from microphone recordings,
I have Vista Ultimate 64bit, with Realtek onboard sound on my mother board. However, my Quadraphonic speakers don't seem to be working as I can only get sound to come out of my front two speakers when in WMP etc. when I go into control panel, I can get sound coming out of all 4 speakers, that silly test sound.
