  1. My High Def. Audio device isn't working after using bookshelf unpowered speakers with a 20w...


    So, I have some fancy shmancy bookshelf speakers to listen to music and movies off my pc. I purchased a 20w Kinter digital amp to power them and plug them into my pc. I used the mp3 port on the amp to plug it into the split ports on my pc for left and right speakers. It was playing sound when I selected HD audio device for a little while but recently it just hasn't been playing sound when I selected HD audio device and the amp is turned on. I've tried reinstalling drivers and all the normal fixes that are suggested but none seem to do the job. I'm starting to think that it's a problem with my

  2. No audio on Asrock 990FX Extreme3 MB w/Realtek High Def "speakers"

    This all started after i update the bios and drivers for my motherboard from the manufactures website, its also in conjuction with a windows update. In my sound control panel the speakers for my monitor were controlled by "Speakers Realtek High Def Audio"
    .. This was always my default device.

    In the list I also have

    Nvidia HDMI Output Ports 0-3 (ALL "NOT PLUGGED IN")

    Realtek Digital Output

    Speakers 2-Logitech G35 Headset

    The only way I can hear any audio is to set my audio default device to the Logitech G35 Headset. All other configurations I have tried do not work. I have went to device manager and uninstalled Realtek's drivers, updated drivers, etc.. I have tried most
    of the fixes I have seen on these forums and nothing is working to restore sound to my two monitor speakers. I have always just had the HDMI cable coming from my Nvidia Graphics card and it plugs into the back of my HANS-G 28'' monitor. As long as "Speakers
    Realtek High Def Audio" was the default device I could hear sound. Now since the updates I have no sound and when I do these restarts after uninstalling audio drivers Windows will default sound back to the USB headset everytime. Im ready to call it quits as
    I just tinkered around for almost two weeks to find a workaround for my monitor not having the correct resolution detected. It still isnt detected and I had to find a loophole to get it to work. Does anyone out there know what the hell is going on???

    NOTE: When i ran windows 7 my monitor was correctly displayed as a Hans-G monitor. It displayed in the correct resolution and I had sound. Not sure if this has anything to do with the problem but unfortunately the manufacturer of my monitor does not seem
    to be in buisness anymore and there are no drivers out there to download. I also have downloaded and ran latest Realtek Win10 drivers in compatibility mode and tried setting the driver to just a generic high def audio device.. No sound.. Please Help

  3. IDT High definition audio codec not working on window 10

    I didn't have to reinstall any of the Win 10 apps (Groove Music, Win Media Player) but what I did was:

    • went to Control Panel --> then Sounds --> then Playback tab.
    • tested the IDT High Def audio (5.1 surround sound speakers) and then
    • went to IDT HD audio properties --> enhancement; click on Bass Boost; then
    • --> advanced tab and changed the quality to any
    • then click 'Apply'
    That applied all my settings (including the audio speaker config and it worked !

    oh, I have to reinstall IDT High Def driver after I replaced it with Microsoft High Def driver (which did not work for me). I have an HP d(?)8-1130a

    Audio Device on High Def Audio Bus

    Hello,

    I have a HP Envy dv6 with beats audio. I did a Windows 10 upgrade and the AMD High Definition Audio Device, which im guessing it the beats audio and the only sounds were through the default speakers. The icon for the beats would show up in the tool bar but
    would say that the device was "unplugged". Well I had to do a recovery and after it was restored to the windows 10 I have no sound. In the device manager it says that the high audio device needs to update drivers. When you try and update and the driver is
    installing...... It gives a message that

    IDT High Definition Audio CODEC

    A device attached to the system is not functioning



    Under the Sound, Video, and Game controllers - AMD High Definition Audio Device and under sound settings it say "not plugged in"

    Now, the default speakers say that the driver that is installed MS says is the best one for it. BUT when you click on the driver tab it has no drivers installed.

    How do I fix this?
