SigmaTEL Hd CODEC Issues
Oct 19, 2009
I installed Windows 7 ultimate and since I have the forbidden red x over my speaker in the toolbar. I click on it and I get the no audio output installed. If I go to device manager my sound card show up fine. I thought I would try to update the driver to see if that would fix it.
Everytime I try to update it searches and finds audio software but when it begins to download an error pops up saying something to the effect of " hardware is not connected to the computer" or something like that. How do I fix this issue and get my sound back??

I previously had a stuttering issue on "only" music playback with my SigmaTel High Definition CODEC, but after rolling back my drivers to the default Microsoft tones, the audio stuttering disappeared.
Since I have never used Microsoft audio drivers, are they of the same quality as the SigmaTel's? My current version is: 6.1.7600.16385
Any issues with keeping this default Microsoft HD Audio driver?

I have a Sony Vaio VGC-RC110G and installed Windows 7 RC 32 bit and it went smoothly 'cept for 2 missing drivers. The main one is the sound device as it is NOT being read. I can't get any sound. I spent several hours on the net looking for a compatiable driver, and alot of people ran into trouble with the SigmaTel High Definition Audio Codec when they upgraded to Vista. Tested a bunch of drivers (from Sony site and even updated sound drivers from Dell) and none worked.
Even downloaded some program called detective driver to help me find compatiable driver but I'd have to pay $30 to activate the program. I would but Im afraid it might not find it.

how do I open movie files that are created by iMovie on Apple when importing from a Hard Disk-Drive HD Camera?Only the audio would play. The video is black with an error that tells me that it cannot play icod and there is no way for me to fix this <-- what??To convert simply renders huge files and slow playback. So where can I get the codec for it?I am running Windows 7 Home Premium and Windows Vista Home Premium?

After a clean install of Windows 7 from Vista 64 bit , all went perfect except for the audio drivers. After a few weeks Windows 7 was saying that the sigmatel audio driver installed was not working. Sigmatel is now actaully IDT. Any of the so called updated drives from sigmatel or IDT will not install. So just delete any installed audio drives in Device manager and let windows install the drives upon rebooting, they work perfectly and they are the most recent drivers i could find anywhere for the High Definition codec.

Have a tablet PC that I just installed Seven onto. Even though it's an old box, Windows update found nearly all of the drivers. The one it didn't find is for the AC97 Sigmatel audio.
So, I grabbed the drivers I used for Vista (they're actually XP drivers) and tried to install them. Did this again and again, using different compatibility modes every time. Got no indications of failure, but never worked, either.
Tried removing the device and having Windows Update search for a driver. No luck.
Tried installing driver from selecting from list. Only Sigmatel driver in the list is for HD -- which I don't have.
Even tried the MS WDM driver -- and it refused to install it.
I read in another thread that there are supposedly generic AC97 drivers --but I can't figure out how to install them.
The relevant driver files from Vista are STAC97.sys and staco.dll -- which tells me this is a STACS AC97 audio chip. But I just can't figure out how to get a driver installed.

Okay I have an inspiron 1721 with Win 7 Ultimate installed on it. Everything works fairly well on it except I have no audio. It says no device installed, and I have tried all types of different versions, under compatibility mode, admin, and ect... when I try to install the drivers it says things along the line of "Device object not present, quite and restart system and try again."
I only had sounds once, and it was pure crazy loud static.
Update STILL TROUBLE: Audio drivers installed. I uninstalled what I found and it re-installed and did the same weird noise issues. Then when I rebooted, it shows no audio output device installed.

When I am listening to music, sometimes the sound is distorted for a short period of time.
This also happens if I return from a break, and my display turns on when I move the mouse (while the music is still playing).
If I just listen to music, and don't do other things, it does not occur as far as I tested.

Dell Inspiron 9400 laptop, dual boot of XP Home and Windows 7, install of public beta went really well. In Windows 7 I have a volume icon in task bar, but no audio output I can hear... Windows 7 is using the digital output with spidf, which I can't use, it shows no other option. I can't seem to install the original drivers (from Dell, for XP), they fail (sez they're not the right drivers for my hardware, even though I tried installing as Administrator).
In XP, device manager reports the SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC, what am I missing here? I think I'm needing to install the "legacy audio" drivers?

I have been trying for a week now to get my audio card working on my Dell Inspiron 1721. I did the update to 7 and then lost audio, I found a driver that would install, but then the audio was pure digital garbage.
I have yet to find a driver that will work. I went to SigmaTel homepage but that didn't help either.
I upgraded to 7 64bit from a 32 bit version of Vista. Full program, not the upgrade. I am ready to dump 7 and go back to Vista.

I have an older P4 2.8ghz Dell Dimension 3100 that currently has Windows 7 installed. Apparently the driver is the Sigmatel 97xx C-Major audio according to support.dell.com - the first thing I tried was the Windows Vista driver listed on Dell's site. Unfortunately that did not work. The driver appears to be installed and I have a sound device however I have no output through the speakers. I'm sure it is a driver related issue.
The device enabled, the speakers work and are hooked up properly. Any ideas where I can find a Windows 7 driver for the Dimension 3100 using the onboard Sigmatel 97XX?

I have A Dell XPS 420 with a Sigmatel Stac92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver and I was running Windows Vista X64 SP1 and everything was working fine.
I just recently installed Windows 7 RT Build 7100 and the Generic High Definition Audio Device Driver Installed and all types of media play, but it's causing a crackling sound in my audio and not only that it actually corrupts the file so if I were to play a MP4 on my XBOX 360 it also has the crackling noise even if the file was originally fine.
I don't know the last Sigmatel Driver that was on my Vista Build but I tried a few of them and even tried in Vista install mode but none of them work & I tried all the codecs packs that I always install and still nothing.
What should I do and is this a driver problem that's causing the crackling noise and corrupting my files or is their something else to this please help because it's driving me crazy?

I'm having trouble tacking down an audio driver for my Dell Inspiron E1705/9400. It has a Sigmatel 9200 HD Audio Codec. As Indicated from device manager
HDAUDIOFUNC_01&VEN_8384&DEV_7690&SUBSYS_102801CD&REV_1022
VEN 8384 - Sigmatel
DEV 7690 -9200 HD Audio Codec
SUBSYS 102801 - Dell
The audio card is able to output sound however while playing back any prolonged audio, ie music, the playback is unacceptably interrupted with digital artifacts such as skips and pops. This behavior is experienced using a variety of drivers. All drivers have been uninstalled using device manager and then the system has been rebooted before installing the next driver. Also all of the other dell recommended drivers have been installed without a hitch. Finally all windows patches are up to date.I started with the driver provided by Microsoft and continued to try the recommended driver from dell, R171788. I have also tried the following additional driver packages from dell, R108276, R147073, and R171789.
Additional Information:
OS: Windows 7 x86 Home Premium
Dell Service Tag: BSCDK91

I'm on a Windows 7 HomePremium x64, and have installed Shark007's Win7CodecPack and the x64 components. In Windows Media Center, I can't get the sub titles to show on my mkv files, but they seem to work fine in VLC.Steps I've taken: Made sure the .srt file is in the same directory as the video Made sure they are named the same Searched through this board to try what Shark had recommended to others (Go to SWAP in x64 app, Disable Windows Media Foundation, Disable Microsoft's Video Recorder, etc)

Ok so this sort of confuses me here. After a fresh install of windows 7 I am able to play mp3s for a while.. When in a explorer window of a music folder i chose the built in button to play all. After I hit this button only one song came up on my playlist. After trying to choose a different song i am unable to play any mp3s It says that the player might not support this filetype or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file. These are standard MP3's that were ripped in WMP11 on my vista machine.
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall wmp but this has not resolved the issue. I have also dugg in my google resources and read something about a registry error. this instructed me to typw in a command line run as an administrator "regsvr32 wmp.dll"
I have run out of options and I do not want to do a full reinstall as that is the step that i seem to notice everyone else doing.

I have seen alot about no support for mkv in wmp and wmc on these and other Windows 7 threads/boards. I've seen solutions ranging from adding a complicated divx7(not a free codec) tool with necessary support, adding various codec packs, some crazy scripts and regedits with powershell,cmd etc. that can be disastrous with the slightest mistake.
First, if you want to find out the hard way that codec packs can be dangerous, install one. Some are probably better than others, maybe some even won't screw up your system?
But a prominent codec pack-(touted on these boards)- I tried-back when I was a newbie at multi-media playback-caused major system problems. At first it worked great! Then.......Wierd random icons started showing up for un-related programs, web pages, etc., various formats stopped working, program defaults changed by themselves-had to do a clean disk wipe and os install to correct it! Most claim to be minimalist but the point is, they can essentially take-over a system and cause major instability, freezes,etc. Maybe they work for you? Not judging, just suggesting.

Just installed 7 Professional (had been using vista home premium) but i'm running into what i'm guessing is a codec problem.
It manifests it self with 1 dvd in particular that stutters at the same spot every time when playing through Media center or Media Player (x86 and x64). However, when I play the DVD with Powerdvd, it plays flawlessly. I've tried removing the dts/dvd codec (turning if off rather, following this post exactly: Windows 7 Media Center (7MC) Codec Configuration Bible - v. 1.9 - The Green Button)
alas, nothing I do can get the blasted thing to play in 7MC! I've also tried reformatting the HD, and simply installing the shark007 codec pack, having ffdshow run everything. Nada. Is there some other trick to getting another codec (such as powerdvd's) to take control of the dvd playback in 7mc or am I stuck with this?
