No Audio Output Device Installed After Dropping Medicine Ball On Laptop?
Apr 24, 2011
I've been asked to take a look at my mother's laptop. A 10lb medicine ball fell/rolled onto the keyboard. The computer in question is an ASUS G72G laptop running Windows 7 Home 64bit. The sound symbol in the task bar has a red, circular X mark on it and says "No Audio Output Device Installed". I've tried downloading and installing the audio driver from this site but it tells me that this version of Windows is not supported, though I know for certain that this version of windows matches the driver listed:f anyone has an idea as to the underlying cause of this problem, I'd very happy to hear it. I know it seems like a hardware problem, but I'm wondering if it could have hit any function keys or something to disable the sound, as I've been told that some sort of message popped up immediately about the mouse or something, but I wasn't there and don't really know exactly what it said

I'm pretty sure you guys have seen this before; sound icon with a little x over it. I'm posting 2 pictures up to, maybe, give you guys an idea of what the issue can be.Additional information: the laptop at hand tries to install new drivers but fails everytime. No idea why. It tries to install a bluetooth driver.

I've been searching on Google for the last three and a half hours for a solution but came up with nothing, so I thought I'd post here to see if anyone can tell me what's up. I turned on my laptop today to find that there was a little red 'x' over the audio symbol, and upon further inspection it turned out that there was no audio driver installed. I wasn't very bothered about it at first, because after a Windows update once I had to reinstall it, and everything ran smoothly from there because I just reinstalled the driver which originally came with the laptop. Now, this is the problem. I tried installing the driver, and the installation seemed to go fine, I was prompted to restart, did so, but when I logged in after the reboot, I was still getting the "No Audio Output Device Is Installed" error. I searched around, tried a different Realtek HD driver. Same result. Tried again with a different driver, no luck. Wax on, wax off. I can't figure out why it's happening, but maybe someone here can?

I have Windows 7 32bit OS on my comp, few days ago i bought new headphones, steel series siberia v2 USB 7.1(51103), they didn't work in my computer, but they did in other pc, that I have, actually in 3 others. The problem was same as here "No Audio Output Device is Installed" but only with the USB PnP audio device, my onboard sound card worked fine. I need to disable my onboard card to enable any external card. (I think I also uninstalled drivers to my Onboard card). I did that, still didn't worked. So I enabled Onboard audio device (and installed drivers) in Bios and now I got the problem with onboard card as with headphones.
I tried to reinstall/uninstall to allow windows to find drivers, I tried a lot of different ones, don't think drivers are the case, cause its not working for any of 3 cards, even they have diffrent drivers, little chance to have 3 models with wrong drivers as newest, I tried even downloading drivers for other motherboard, because someone said it worked for them QQ. My Windows Audio service is enabled. I tried restarting Bios. Tried even plugging PCI sound card, same problem.

When I hover my mouse over the speaker icon, "no audio output device is installed" appears. I still have sound. There's a red X in along with the speaker icon. When I troubleshoot, it fails and has error 0x8000FFFF. My sound card and microphone stuff are there when I check the devices, and they work. I still can adjust volume with my keyboard, but it starts the troubleshooter when I click the speaker

English is not my first language so I'm not familiar with the Computer Science vocabulary. I've had a Pavilion dv9700, Model # dv9819wm, for approximately 2 years. My hard drive failed and the guys at my school were able to recover 60 GB of files but most of them don't have an ordinary format. They are just saved on a folder on my desktop. They installed Windows 7, (It was Windows Vista before the failure) and I've been having problems with the coprocessor and "ethernet" drivers. Yesterday I uninstalled the "ethernet" driver and when my laptop rebooted the audio driver was nowhere, (obviously I have no audio), which was surprising since that was not the one I uninstalled. My Sound device is not shown on Device Manager either. I uploaded some applications that identify missing drivers and apparently the sound driver is the newest one available. I got on BIOS and the sound button was enabled. I went to HP's website and the only audio drivers offered for my laptop model were for OS Vista. When I try to automatically install the driver from another HP application it says something like my "Compatibility..." is not permitting a correct installation. First, what is going on? and is there any way I can get my pictures and videos from those 60 GB into a normal

I was instructed to remove the stdriver64.sys from my system as it was causing crashes. Well after I've done so the audio device refuses to work I have attempted to uninstall and reinstall my Realktek High Definition device a few times, but it still refuses to work. I have to system restore to get stdriver64 back on my system which is the only way I have sound, but it crashes if I do.

I put in a copy of Windows 7 the complete disk and I got windows 7, but then I've noticed that the audio isn't working. I've been to the Dell website but they only have the drivers for xp and I've tried to look up Vista drivers but I can't find them anywhere. Also, everytime I try find a solution through windows it won't let me update the driver.

My Sony laptop VGN-FZ21Z VISTA home premium 32 bit has a little red x next to the audio on the bottom right toolbar. No Audio output device is installed is displayed when I hover over it. I have gone into the device driver to check the problem and no audio device is installed. I have tried to download the driver from the Sony UK website and it says object not found restart computer and try again. There is then a prompt to install with the correct settings and it tries again and says I have the wrong device. I have also reset my computer to factory settings and still that little red x is there. I have looked everywhere for the correct device driver but can't seem to find one for this model.

I recently upgraded an Acer Aspire 3690 to Windows 7 (32bit) and everything went well, almost. See, for life of me I can't get audio to work. (That old chestnut.) The speaker icon in the notification area displays the white cross/red circle and informs me that "No Audio Output Device is installed". Fine. Okay. Just a driver problem, right?
Well, Device Manager is showing no discrepancies and the two devices associated with the Aspire's audio chipset (Conexant) are installed and happy (Modems/HDA CX11270 Soft Modem, and System devices/High Definition Audio Controller). But there is no entry for Sound, Video and Game Controllers, and that's what concerns me. Acer's driver support page for the 3690 tells me that Realtek powers the audio, but regardless of the potentially compatible audio drivers I've tried to install (most of the Conexant drivers fail with "Driver installation failed: could not find the MEDIA device for this driver" and the Realtek drivers either have no effect or BSOD the machine) I've had no success.
Now if I was running XP then MUAA would, I'm convinced, resolve the issue, but as far as Windows 7 is concerned I'm at a loss. Best I figured, the Realtek drivers should latch onto the High Definition Audio Controller then provide an Audio Output Device, but nothing's happening. I'm convinced that the physical hardware's fine because the Soft Modem diagnostics provide feedback, and the BIOS has been updated to 3.60.

I received my Acer Aspire One notebook with Windows 7 Starter last year for Christmas. Not a week later, the sound would spontaneously stop working, often while I was in the middle of listening to music in Winamp. For a few days, restarting would fix the problem immediately, but then it stopped working entirely.The speaker icon in the lower right is covered with a red X symbol, and hovering the mouse over it I get the message "No audio output device is installed."Googling the problem found me lots of forum topics about similar issues on Windows 7, Vista, and XP, but most of those were solved by going into the device manager, finding the Sound, Video, and Game Controllers option, and disabling then enabling the sound card. But I tried that, and that option is not even listed in my device manager. If I go to Control Panel > Sound, the Playback tab just says "No audio devices installed". It's as if my computer forgot it had speakers. Of course, headphones don't work either.
I tried system restoring and eventually reinstalling. Sometimes the problem would resolve on a restart and work fine, and when that happened the device appeared where it belonged and I updated the drivers. But on the next restart, the problem happened again. I figured out how to flash the BIOS, and it still didn't work.About a month later the problem went away again and didn't come back. But now, five more months later, it seems to be back again for good. If I open Winamp and try to play a song, I get a message saying "Bad DirectSound driver. Please install proper drivers or select another device in configuration."

Since installing it, I had a problem with my sound, which was as the title states, no audio output device. I've been through several drivers, none of which worked, and I've also tried sound max, which has in fact worked, however I can't stand the little sound bar when you up or down the volume, and it's fairly unresponsive when I use the buttons on my laptop. So in all fairness, I just want the actual driver designed to work with this laptop.I do have a version of Windows 7 Home Premium, not too sure if it'd make much difference, however I'd rather not go through another OS install as I've got most of my stuff already set up on this now!I am good with computers so don't be afraid to get technical, but I just need another angle on this because it's most likely just something I'm overlooking.
