After hardware upgrades, my custom XP Professional audio workstation will not allow me to re-install my Digigram VX-442 audio card driver or on-board audio.
Error message is: Cannot install this hardware.The data is invalid.
I do not know how to determine the CPU load of audio on a motherboard how to determine if the sound includes a digital signal processor (DSP). I assume a DSP, especially for older CPUs (600 MHz. or so) is a big improvement because it offloads a lot of processing from the CPU. I am interested only in stereo. How can I know if an add-in sound card with a DSP is actually an improvement? Does the DSP overweigh other issues, eg. does a cheap Mad Dog Prowler 4.1 DSP sound card offer an improvement over the motherboard sound of a Compaq DeskPro ENS/P600? Truth is, I've been looking for but have not seen a treatise on this topic. Does anyone have any links for me to pursue?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to upgrade my sound card so I ran DXDIAG (log at end of post) and it says that my sound card is an Intel(r) Integrated Audio and the driver version is 5.10.0000.3523 (English). The date is from late 2001(!) so I obviously want to update the thing.The problem is that I can't find an update file or driver anywhere! I don't know if I'm being retarded or what but there must be some update available since 2001.

I just got a new computer with an AMD Duron processor, 512 M RAM and Windows XP. Only problem is I've got no audio. I've checked BIOS and sound is enabled but Windows doesn't seem to recognize that the speakers are hooked up. When I tried to play system sounds from the Control Panel, I got an error message that said cannot play sound, your sound card may be in use. The computer was a gift that was bought used and the shop didn't have any documentation with the system. I think this might be a driver issue but I'm not sure how to find out which driver to try.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI reinstalled my OS and all my software, shortly thereafter I noticed I had an issue where any sound that was coming through my headphones was being retransmitted through the mic, with further testing I found that this was not actually the case but rather any sound that would be output is being retransmitted as audio in, even if I had no speakers, headphones or mics connected. I have looked at and experimented with everything I could in every sound settings.
I have tried updated drivers, the only way for me to stop the issue from occurring is to mute the mic in the recording control, but that stops me from using the mic altogether. I need to be able to use my mic without recording anything that I am hearing as well.
First off I use windows XP with the latest service pack. I'm using the onboard sound card on my motherboard Asus striker II extreme.
The volume of my flash player (I first noticed it when trying to view a video on Hulu) but other flash embedded videos won't play sound either. I thought this was a flash problem, and tried the usual fixes uninstalling reinstalling, running the update utility and removing and reinstalling the plugin. Also it likely isn't a browser issue as embedded videos didn't play on either Firefox or Opera.
After restarting my computer after a few uninstalls I noticed my startup music wasn't playing as well. I'm thinking that it might be some registry error as it seems like the music is very quiet instead of muted, and all of the volume levels in the Sounds and Audio Device Properties menu are at the correct levels, and my other media players play music and movies just fine.
I've browsed the forums and haven't seen anyone with a similar problem or a fix, so any help would be greatly apprciated.

View 6 Replies View RelatedA new machine with a new XP build who is unable to hear audio from his machine. After taking a look at his machine I noticed he had no audio driver installed. Thinking that this was a simple fix I attempted to re-install the Realtek HD Audio drivers that are included with the machine (HP dc-5750). After installation and restart I receive the new hardware detected prompt and I navigate to the directory with the .sys file in it. When attempting to install it the wizard states that it was unable to locate the drivers. I know the drivers are correct and I have even attempted to download updated drivers.
This is when I started to search the forums, all stating to remove the drivers and remove the UAA hotfix from Microsoft and re-install both. (UAA first then drivers) This failed to produce any results, so I looked around more and found an article stating I needed to extract the files into a folder and direct the new hardware wizard to the commonfile folder in the folder. This left me still without sound or a working driver.

View 10 Replies View RelatedSo recently I got a new monitor assuming that something is wrong with my old one. But the same problem occurs, my monitor still goes blank! Well, ever since I switched my video card (same time I got my old monitor) I was experiencing that problem. People at the store are no help at all since they are so clueless!
So I came to this conclusion, its either my video card that's experiencing problems or my mother board is getting out dated or whatsoever. (I got it back in 2003 and its Pentium 4 hyper-threading) My current mother board doesn't have a monitor slot on the pentium, only has a slot where the video card is. I don't think that could be a problem because when I had my old video card,

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhile trying to create a compilation album by copy and paste from the cd drive into a new folder I noticed all the CDA/media player files where only 44kb.

I have since discovered that virtually all files/drives when double clicked open with search this is driving me mad as it is probably just a setting the kids have accidently played with.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm using Win XP. Recently, in running video files, I'm getting audio, but the video portion is blank. My player is Windows Media Play 10, with current codecs. Preferences for the player are set to include all types of video files. I also have QuickTime installed, and DivX, although I don't use them. No previous problem like this. I've reinstalled Media Player and have the latest codecs package to go with it. Video files most used are .avi and .mpeg. I've got 512 ram, and that has not been a problem in the past. So, I'm guessing my video card has soured.
