Quick Audio Switching
Jul 2, 2009
I have my Realtek Audio device connected to my home theater receiver through s/pdf and to my monitor through the green jack on the back of the pc.
When I am surfing the forums or what not, I have sound set to analog through my monitor. When I switch to Media Center, My output is moved to the s/pdf by right clicking the little speaker and selecting playback devices, and changng my default device, then starting Media Center.
However, sometimes. I forget to do this and I have to close Media Center and make the switch.
Question is this. Is there a hot key or software appy that can do this for me when I launch Media Center? Perhaps a Batch file, witch I have no experience with.?

For some reason when I plug my headphones into the front audio jack in my computer the sound output of running applications is not moved to my headphones. The audio remains with my speakers. The converse is true too - unplugging my headphones will not transfer audio output that is on my headphones to my speakersI had run into this problem when I was originally setting up my computer and I had been able to fix it.All I had to do is set my headphones to my default sound output and the computer would switch everything when I plugged them in. My headphones are still the default audio source, but for some reason the switching no longer works.

ok to uncomplicated things ive read thru the forums and could not find anything concrete on this problem of mine..
i have a gigabyte mobo/amd cpu w/onboard hdmi
my issue is sound switching right now as it stands, i need to manually switch on my pc between the HDMI audio as my main device and my PC speakers as my main device... on my laptops this is not a problem, it can automatically detect if hdmi is plugged in and switch sound over..
the main reason is its a slight pain to keep going over after a movie and switch over, nor do i want to disconnect a hdmi cable every time..
any suggestions how to automate this problem???

This is becoming a pain in the ass. I am using HDMI through my AMD 6850 to my LG TV for audio and video. It has been working fine(no audio problems) for about a year.Just recently, with no hardware or related software change I can think of, now, if I switch the input on my TV(for example go to HDMI1 to watch TV and then back to the PC) there is no audio. It becomes disconnected, I have reinstalled and tried using the AMD HDMI driver and the Realtek(my chipset) HDMI driver. When I switch inputs, sound manager shows HDMI as "not plugged in". The only way to fix it is to unplug the cable and plug it back in while staying on the PC HDMI input

get windows 7 to switch audio drivers when you switch to another user account.
For eg.. normal speakers device for my personal account and then have my multichannel device (profire 2626) set as default for my other user account 4 studio work.
Atm, if i change it on one account it changes on the other account which is annoying and i'd just like to set default device for each account so i don't have to do this.

I'm used to chrome, shortcut Ctrl t = new tab. Windows Explorer internet options says Ctrl q for a new tab. It does not work for me.

What I wanna know is the best way to format my HP G60 (Win 7 Home Premium) to remove all the extraneous programs like HP Dashboard, etc, and get it running at its peak again. I'm currently working at my school in our "Connection Assistance Room", but that's mostly configuring WiFi, etc. I don't have any experience in formatting.

I had read in one or another Win 7 forum how to activate quick launch. Now something has happened and I no longer have it.

I want to add My Docs to the Quick Launch bar but it refuses to go. I only get the option to add to Windows Explorer which I don't want. I'd like to see my customised containing folder on the Quick Launch instead of the basic brown folder.
I've tried a few of the options suggested elsewhere in the Forum but they didn't work as I'd like.

I have added the quick launch to the taskbar on 1 pc but on the second one when I click on toolbars - new toolbar it opens with Libraries showing and I cannot get rid of it to insert the text for the quick launch bar. Does anyone know how to get it to open without the libraries bar showing?

The HP buttons on laptops above the keyboard, for me play, ffw, rewind, volume, and mute; do not work with Windows 7.
I went to HP and downloaded the Vista 32 bit drivers hoping they would work on Windows 7 but they dont, at least not by simply installing them.
Im running Windows 7 32bit.
Im not talking about the Quick Play buttons, I dont care about those.
Any ideas?

I just bought a new WD 2TB ext. HD.Scanned for bad sectors (COMPUTER - PROPERTIES - TOOL - CHECK NOW): took me about 6hr, then I quick format it (of course very fast). Should I need to do normal format?In this case since I already scanned the HD, no need to do full format.

This is my second day with Windows 7 and I'm very impressed with it. With Vista, I had the 'My ISP' icon in the Quick Launch bar which was very handy. Now that I've managed to enable the Windows 7 Quick Launch, can anyone tell me how to put the My ISP icon there so that I can connect with just one click as with Vista?

Im looking at just testing out how a VPN works, a quick overview is i have a vista laptop and a windows 7 desktop along with a billion 7800n router. Both the laptop and desktop have static lan ip address asaigned to them. I would like to dial into my desktop machine from my laptop.I have setup my desktop to recieve in coming connections but when i am setting up the laptop to allow outgoing connections im a little bit unsure on one aspect. When it asks for the internet address i want to connect to which is my desktop machine, do i have to type in the lan address of that machine or do i have to put in the wan address?

I, like many, many people here have experienced this error message coming up on the bottom right of the screen.There are many closed topics on this with some very long-winded answers and a lot of confusion.Try reactivating your copy of Windows 7 first by doing the following (It worked for me without even needing a reboot!)Open your "Start" button.type or copy and paste this slui.exe When you see it as an option to click, right click and run as administrator.Came up for me as "Activation complete" straightaway.Not suggesting this is an alternative for the larger threads but definately something to try before you go too deep (or in my case out of my depth lol)

The icons in the quick-launch bar (or whatever it's called now, since it works differently after all) frequently change image. For the first few days it was all normal, then the WMP and IE(32-bit) icons swapped image, and now the WMP image has turned into my C drive's image (and IE(32-bit)'s back to normal. The 64-bit icon hasn't changed yet, by the way). They still work normally though. How to stop them from switching image?Interestingly, this also happened on Windows XP (which was 32-bit, not the 64-bit unlike this Windows 7). However, this is a different HD, so it's definitely not a HD issue (well, unless both happen to have the same problem, but what's the chance?).

the thing is iv accidentally performed a quick format on an WD Green 2TB drive with XP pro installation. what i want is to recover the whole complete partition as it was (1 ntfs partition was on the disk) include names/structure and all. i dont have a 2TB space to image the disk, so all the recovery tools should be nondestructive, however i do have 2TB free to recovering to.Just to be clear the disk didnt have an os on it, it wasnt the primary,but a storage?

Windows 7-HPx64 offers easy changes from small to large icons in the Taskbar but QL icons seem to have one size only - small.In trying to set up / maintain Windows 7 for an older person I want to offer her a QL with large icons, just like the Taskbar.Do I ditch the QL and just pin apps to the Taskbar?

I still use the quick launch bar in Win 7 and I'm wondering something: is there a way to make a folder on that bar appear as a pull-down (or, pull-up) menu?I mean similar to the way Chrome allows you to make a folder on your bookmarks bar, in that clicking it brings a pull-down list of those bookmarksSo in this case, I'd like to click a "games" folder on my quick launch bar, and have it open a menu similarly, rather than just open a folder of links.

I managed to reactivate the 'Quick Launch' Folder under Windows 7. Disadvantage: I need to synchronize the content for every user. Means 'Quick Launch ' differs a lot from e.g. Start MenuPrograms or Autostart where I can place my content into the 'All Useres' branch and will see a combination of my personal folders and the 'All Useres' folders.

basically the other day I manged to accidentally quick format my 2TB storage drive. After using some software to see what files I could recover I saw that it found a 150Mb $MFT file. Seeing as all the files are now nameless and will be a heck of a job to get back in working order is it possible to just put the previous $MFT file back on the drive so it actually knows where the data is located.

Friday night I had quick launch icons. Saturday morning I didn't. I also can't open the START menu and select "pin to start menu" on anything anymore. There are arrows next to certain programs as well (such as Word) that USED TO show recent documents but those don't even open anymore. All that exists there is an arrow with no functionality. What the heck? I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64. Why would all of my quick launch icons suddenly disappear and I can't drag and drop anything to the bar now? The bar isn't locked and nothing has changed in the system that I know of.

Using Win 7 x64 and Firefox 4 with a Dell 23.5" LCD monitor, I randomly see Firefox bookmarks (1 or 2 bookmarks) appearing in the area at the bottom of the screen where the Firefox add-ons are shown (one add-on currently - "Ad Block Plus" - so the red stop sign shows) and blending into the taskbar/quick launch tool bar. These random bookmarks show up about centered on the width of the screen.If I click anywhere in the Taskbar/quick launch tool bar, the shown bookmarks vanish.

I've recently reformatted and installed Windows 7 ultimate 64bit on my hp dv9904 laptop. Everything is working fine except for the remote and quick launch buttons at the top of the keyboard. I've seen quite a few threads on the subject but none of them have worked out for me.everything in device manager says its working fine but niether the remote nor the quick launch buttons do anything Should I uninstall the drivers for both and start over?
