Not Able To Play Audio When Using Sony CD- Dvd Device
Nov 10, 2007
Windows media player or on any other media player, not able to hear audio but can view video on windows Xp operating system.
1.No issue with sound drivers as audio is tested and detected.
2.No issue with sony cd-DVD device. it is been tested and played on other system.
3.Media used is OK as it was able to play audio earlier
I am using a Sony Vaio Model PCG- 7X2L and it won't play any sounds. There is no volume control on the task bar, so I went to Sounds and Audio Devices and it says there is no audio device. When lookng at the Device Manager, this is what is listed under Sound, video, and game controllers:
Audio Codecs Legacy Audio Drivers Legacy Video Capture Devices Media Control Devices Video Codecs
I don't see anything that says Realtek, SoundMax, or any other similar devices. What do I need to download in order to have sound play on my laptop?
i have a problem with windows media player, whenever i try to play a video, it says play at the bottom left hand side of the screen but nothing plays, audio, or video, what do i do?
I am not aware of any change to my sys, except no sound at all. I've done all the help troublshooting suggestions, I have the same Yamaha device that came with the viao and am using the same built-in speakers.
I had some trouble last night and today with getting rid of a virus. Now that it is gone, I am having sound problems (maybe related, maybe not). This morning, when I opened iTunes I got a message that there was no audio device detected. After trying several things, I rebooted. Magically, I could play music again. However, a short while later, I again got an error message telling me that there is no audio device found, even though it shows up in Device Manager as working properly. The problem goes away for a short time after I reboot, but returns. It is Realtek AC 97. Why won't my computer keep recognizing it? (It tried going to Realtek's site to download an update. It has updates for Windows 98, 95, etc., but not for XP. Or at least I couldn't find it.)
my audio/volume system tray icon has vanished and device manager says that all sound devices/drivers are working properly and are up to date, BUT - Sounds and Audio Devices Properties says I have no audio device installed. If I try to open volume controls
Recently when I play a dvd on my pc the audio is jumpy and cracks, but if I drag the the time line bar back a few seconds the audio will be fine for the scene I just watched. this happens in all media players that I have used. So far I have tried to Roll back and update my drivers, checked all my audio levels, I made sure my DirectX sound was on full acceleration, and I have DMA enabled. One thing I just thought of while typing this is, I use Daemon tools to mount my all my games could this be causing a problem?
I make a DVD with PCM audio and it stutters and stops in my computer (any software player I try). It will play just fine in other computers and set-top players. Then, I make a DVD with Dolby Digital Audio and it plays fine on my omputer and everywhere else. Why won't my computer play the PCM audio DVD? I have the latest drivers for everything, a HT P4 3.4ghz with Creative Audigy ZS2 sound card and ATI X800 video. Top stuff, right? My codecs are current and I'm running XP SP1
Complaint was audio CDs won't play. Think problem is actually autoplay doesn't work. It is enabled for the drives/files. Tried Microsoft autoplay repair tool, Tweak, checked services. Music CDs just won't autoplay
i want to watch a movie on my desktop it cannot play dvd with audio..it comes that when i open my dvd ram it displays 2 folders audio and video..and in auto play it plays no audio and the player saids unknown dvd
I have a problem with audio, every once in a while I try to play an audio file and it just goes fastforward and doesn't play, sometimes it just gets stuck after 2 seconds.I tried to check my audio card (phonic firefly 302) and it's fine, I think the problem is with the controller or something Whenever I restart my computer/the audio card the problem is solved, but it keeps on happening.
I'm not sure if there are previous threads on this, but I accidentally deleted my sound by deleting the program realtek audio.All I remember is the name realtek, and I am not sure what to install.I've already installed realtek ac '97 audio 3.99 and it shows up in the device manager, but the sound still says 'no audio device.I have a Windows XP SP2.Please let me know what I can do.Oh, and i've tried to uninstall it from the device manager, but it won't let me. My computer just freezes.
WinXP with service pack 3 - has decided, overnight, that I have no audio device installed. I have checked under device manager and Creative Labs seems to be working. Have tried to update drivers but all drivers current. Have I got something configured wrongly?
the audio on my computer has recently stopped. I am running an AMD 64 3000 with WINXP SP3, and have an Asus A8N-E MB using onboard audio. I have tried re-installing the nvidia nforce audio drivers, but they still do not appear in the device manager. Under sound, video, and game controllers in device manager, I have:
Audio Codecs Legacy Audio Drivers Legacy Video Capture Devices Logitech Microphone Media Control Devices MPU-410 Compatible MIDI Device Standard Game Port Video Codecs
In control panel under sounds and audio devices, it says I have no audio device, and that there are no playback devices. When I try to play a song in RealPlayer, it says "cannot open the audio device. Another application may be using it." Could an overheated chipset cause only the sound to malfunction? My chipset fan recently failed and I was running without it for a little while.
My internal Nvidia nforce sound card has completely disappeared according to windows for no apparent reason. It is not shown in Device Manager and all of my applications give me errors saying i have no sound card. I've tried reinstalling the audio drivers but it makes no difference.Does anyone know whats causing this and how i can solve it?
After going through many trials, tribulations, and attempts to fix my computer, i was left with only one option, to fully restore it back to factory settings. i thought this would cleanse all of my problems. now i have no sound. i have tried running services.msc and windows audio is correctly enabled. it is likely to be a missing sound driver, but i have no clue how to determine where i can get this said driver. i think it is important to note that it appears that none of my usb ports in the front or back of my computer are active.
Audio went so I checked my device manager, ohboy it's EMPTY.I then check the services well no icon for that now so I use CMD, I can't get the services to DO anything.
My audio device suddenly dissapeared recently,in Control Panel/Sound and Audio Devices in volume it reads: No Audio Device.Does Anyone know where i can install a new audio device? I have a Dell WindowsXP:Home Edition
I have a USB to SPDIF converter that is supposed to support 5.1 surround. I can hear stereo sound, but not 5.1 surround. I know there are many free tools that enable passthrough on spdif so the receiver does the dedcoding instead of the PC. However windows XP doesn't see the USB audio device as SPDIF is there a way to configure the USB audio device as SPDIF without drivers?
I am still having a recurring problem with my Realtek Audio Device. This is not a new installation and no other new hardware has been installed on the computer (Win Xp Home, SP2). No conflicts are shown. I fear that some files may have become corrupted but this is one behaviour which constantly recurs - maybe someone has a fix or knows what files I need to replace.When I start up the computer, there is no volume icon, no sound and device manager shows the audio device as unable to start, code 10. All the codecs etc other things under sounds are OK.If I choose to uninstall it, then run add hardware wizard, it will reinstall it no problems and the sound comes back. But next boot up it's gone again.In case of not having read previous post, I suspect some corruption occurred when I had to cold shutdown my computer.
I obviously have the correct drivers on the computer & can load them through hardware wizard - I just don't know why they don't stick on shutdown - it's as if the function which registers the entry in the register is corrupt - I know there are certain files which can be installed or uninstalled from the registry in order to start or stop a service.is it something like this I need to do?
I installed all the Windows updates and loaded the drivers off the utility disk that came with the motherboard. I also got the updates from the GIGABYTE website. The utility app shows all drivers are installed correctly. It took me a couple of days to get audio to work because the initial driver load got corrupted somehow and it wouldn't let me reinstall until I deleted the driver's entry in the registry. After that I was prompted for the driver again and it installed fine and sound finally started working. Everything appears to be working and there is only the one Unknown driver in my Device Properties and it's really irking me. All my drivers were installed correctly in my previous installation
I recently found an old Gateway desktop in my basement. It is from a few years back, but I figured I'd do a clean install of Windows XP on it and run it in an extra room.I copied the drivers over using a program called DriverMax, and it seemed to work successfully. I had the internet right away and everything else I tried worked. The only problem I am having is that there is no sound. It also says there is no audio device found. Device Manager says I have the most up to date Legacy Audio Drivers, but I am still having this problem.Is there another driver that I might need in order for my computer to recognize an audio device.
I don't have sound and haven't for the past few days and then this morning a Found New Hardware Wizard keeps popping up trying to install software for an Unknown Device on High Definition Audio Bus.In the Device Manager, there are yellow question marks near Other Devices and then below it, in sub categories is a list of at least 20 (!) Unknown Device on High Definition Audio Bus.In the Audio Device section, there are NO Playback Devices, NO Recording Devices, No Midi Playback and the same in the Voice section. Usually I have Realtek listed there.
I have a Toshiba laptop M115-S3094 Satellite with Windows Media It's less than a year old.In the beginning it ran great. Now I can't get any audio. I tried the Fan in Comcast, it plays the videos, but no sound. I tried a DVD. No sound. I ran the troubleshooter. No help. No music in Windows Media Player either.There are so many devices on this laptop. I do get the sound when windows opens and closes. I have had sound on the Fan video clips and Windows Media Center in the past. I recently completed the Window authenticity.
I have no idea what to do. I went into my cpsystemdevice manager and there's an exclamation point C-Media AC97 Audio Device. I double clicked on it and tried to retrieve it from my winxp cd but it doesn't work.
My computer has recently started playing the System Notification sound that is defined as Windows XP Balloon.wav in the Sounds and Audio Device Properties at seemingly random intervels, and I cannot seem to find out what application is triggering the playing of this sound. I am sure it is this sound specifically as I changed it up and the change was reflected in the sound that was playing. I have also been checking the event viewer under Administrative tools and haven't noticed any events that correspond with the issue at hand. It's slowly driving me crazy! I have heard a ton of good stuff about your forums and thought I would give it a try.
The Plug & Play Software Device Enumerator is failing to load the required drivers. now i've done alot of searching and i've found a solution that worked for others uninstall Plug & Play Software Device Enumerator from the Device Manager find the 'machine.inf' file and copy it to your desktop open your copy of 'machine.inf' and delete the following (on line20)- ExcludeFromSelect=* then, Add new hardware. follow the steps until you see the Have Disk button click Have Disk and select 'machine.inf' from your desktop[not sure abt this step] if you need to, re-install your sound drivers
