My system freezes several times a day, and it did the same back in Vista before I upgraded. I've finally found that most freezes occur within a few seconds after I plug in or unplug my headphones--but not every time I plug in or remove my headphones. Most of the support forums I've visited...

I am currently running Windows 7 32-bit on a Dell Vostro 1400. I upgraded from Vista Pro. After upgrading, I too have had the joy of not being able to have any sound come out of my speakers. If I plug headphones into the headphone jack I can hear sound. If I click the volume icon on my...

I have an HP Pavilion dv4 that I just upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit and now my sound isn't working. I've read some of the other posts that talked about this and it seemed like it was just a driver problem, but mine is saying that the speakers and the headphone jack aren't plugged in. I'm not all...

I have not been able to find a solution after over a week of looking for one now. I've spoken to several HP technicians and browsed multiple forums and have tried every suggestion recommended. I get a crackling/ static sound coming from my speakers when playing audio. I have tried the laptop...

I have Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit, and 2.1 speakers. My mobo is Gigabyte GA EX58 UD5 with Realtek HD audio. It only seems to support Stereo, Quadrophonic, 1.5 and 1.7 sounds. Stereo for some reason won't work, and so i can't use anything else but headphones which make my head ache. I need to be able...

Just installed Win7 Pro on my dv1000 (specifically dv1680ca) and I have no sound. I had to initially install a driver from Link Removed - Invalid URL (only drivers for XP and Vista were available) for windows to see that I had speakers at all, not it thinks I have sound (sound animation in...

Have a problem with the SoundMax FX-II sound riser card on my ASUS Formula Rampage Mother Board. The problem is that there are two drivers and that is creating some kind of conflict so that I either can have sound from the front headphones OR from the rear speaker phone - but not both. What...

Sorry about the length of my post but I wanted to make sure that is was sufficiently detailed so that someone would be able to help me: I am having a rather strange issue which, although is not hindering the use of my computer, is still something that I would like to try and resolve. I...

Ever since I installed the new Windows 7 upgrade, my laptop speakers won't play a thing, ever. Yet if I plug headphones in, I get sound coming out of the headphones. Also, whenever I try and play anything in Windows Media Player, it comes up with a message saying "Windows Media Player...
