headphones

What to do when things go quiet QUESTION I'm unable to hear any sound through the speakers on my Acer Extensa 5630Z Windows 7 laptop. It makes no difference whether I'm listening to MP3 files stored on the hard drive, videos streamed from a website or even system sounds. I can hear very faint...

Hey everyone, Just to be clear on what kind of motherboard I'm using and the onboard audio in said motherboard, here's the model number: GA-M57SLI-S4 (AMD - socket AM2) and the onboard audio is by Realtek. The mobo itself is a bit outdated I guess, at about 4-5 years now. I listen to a lot of...

Hi I am getting the "no speakers or headphones are plugged in" error and the red x over the audio icon. When I check the volume control options I only get ati hdmi output as an option and not the mobo's on board sound card. I have checked this on the Internet and tried updating my drivers...

This may take a while to explain, so bear with me lol. What I'm attempting to do is broadcast (on Justin.tv, Ustream.tv, whatever) a live stream of myself (audio + video...through my webcam) talking to people on Skype (their audio and video), and in the process, be able to have the viewers...

Hi guys, Do you know how to direct a program's sound output to a specific audio output port using the Mixer or other third party program? I would like to have my game sound output to my headphones and my music to output to my speakers. Has anybody done this before? Thanks, sabrehagen

I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-S6946 running on Windows 7. None of the system volumes are on mute, the speakers properties lie and say it's working properly, I've already reinstalled device driver software, and restored Windows to an earlier date...though, no dice. I'm not totally sure what...

I am using the Stereo Mix option to broadcast sound(music & voice) from my PC on the ustream website. The music part works perfectly but I am also using a microphone to broadcast my voice over the music. The problem is that after clicking on "listen to" for the mic, I hear my voice played back...

I just bought a GE earbud/microphone headset. There were two plugs, one for the microphone and one for the headset. The microphone works perfectly, but for whatever reason I can't hear anything in the earbud. When I go to Playback Devices to make it the default device, it doesn't even appear...

Here's my issue : I have a new computer with Windows 7. My Internet connection is usually fast, but when I play music or videos, it becomes suddenly incredibly slow. It can take several minutes to load a basic web page like Google. If I pause the music/video and refresh the page, it loads in...

Hi, I have an HP G60-230US laptop with Windows 7 x64. Previously on x86, Windows would detect when I am using the headphone output and when I am using the laptop's internal speakers. This way I had the headphone output running my monitor's speakers at the maximum level so I could adjust on the...

I've had no sound on my Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium for a couple of weeks. I've tried many different solutions from multiple websites, but I still have no sound. The drivers are all working properly, but there's no sound from the external speakers that I plugged in, the integrated speakers...

I was in the middle of a youtube video and the sound suddenly went out. I've checked/ updated all the bios and drivers to no avail. I did a restore to a point from months ago, but it didn't help either. It'll still play through headphones or speakers plugged into the headphone jacks, but not...

Hey. I figured it'd be cool to show some pics of my rig (specs in profile) and home music studio. I'll tell ya about each picture and what it is. I'll start with my actual rig. As you can see it is not very neat but that doesn't bother me much. I don't have a cable long enough for the Caviar...
