After installing Realtek sounded sound. Realtek HD Manager No In Control Panel

The latest version of Microsoft's operating system brought a large number of innovations in the daily use of PC hundreds of millions of users around the world. The optimization and stability of work were significantly improved, built-in antivirus and much more, but many have encountered a very unexpected problem: sometimes there is no sound on a computer with Windows 10. This may be the result of a shortage of RAM, for example (the most common cause), but there are still many types of problems, each of which requires an individual approach.

Sound problems, options for their solutions

Problems with sound on Windows 10 have a spontaneous character and may arise in a variety of conditions. The universal recipe for their elimination does not exist, however there are several pattern behavior patterns, thanks to which you can accurately determine the cause of the problem. For example, quite often users notice that after the update, the sound does not work in Windows 10. Also, the sound may not work immediately after installing Windows 10, or not absent specifically in games. Each of these problems has its own solution, which is why the sound configuration on the computer with the Windows 10 installed has become a big problem. But do not rush to despair and call the master.

Banal reasons

This item would like to devote human inattention. Even the most meticulous PC user may not remember that he just turned off the sound or forgot to connect new columns or headphones. In addition, there are cases when the wire from the device loosely entered the connector, the latter malfunction is also possible. To cut off the inattention factors, we recommend to double-check the connection, the sound volume and the Mute mode on the speakers.

Another problem of this kind is a cable malfunction. It may be damaged by pets or just break (immediately noticeable), and it may be damaged inside that it is very difficult to determine. To make sure about the health of headphones or speakers, connect them to another PC or smartphone.

Also immediately check if you have the playback source. Click on the left button on the speaker icon in the lower right corner and check whether the sound appears on each of the options available.

Outdated or non-working drivers

If banal causes are not your case, then the first thing you should think about updating the software. In Windows 10, an automatic download system provides current versions of drivers, which will help in most cases. In the remainder of the situations, you can download drivers from the official site of the sound card manufacturer. Both instructions we have placed below.

Upgrading drivers using standard Windows tools.

If Windows has not updated the driver, then use manual load instructions.

1. Find the official website of the manufacturer of your sound card. As a rule, this is REALTEK, the site of which is quite simple to find. If you doubt that you have opened the right resource, then see the address in the documentation from the sound card.
2. Download drive driver.
3. Start the installation file and follow the instructions.
4. Restart PC.

If the installation does not pass, that is, the probability that the old driver not only works incorrectly, but also prevents the installation of the new one. This happens quite rarely, but is solved by removing the driver through the device manager followed by its reinstall.

Sound disappeared while computer

If you notice that the sound disappeared directly during the device operation, it may be a consequence of a shortage of RAM. For example, the launch of a modern video game or a large number of tabs in the browser can cause RAM deficit. For unknown reasons, Win10 considers the sound of a less priority thing than 50 tabs in Google Chrome. And the problem is that the audio is very difficult to turn on again.

The main signs of the lack of RAM:

• The appearance of the black screen during the use of PC.
• Reboot the browser tab when switching to them.
• Automatic shutdown of any programs.
• A warning of a shortage of memory. Since the message does not specify exactly what kind of memory is not enough, inexperienced users begin to delete files from a hard disk, not paying attention to the fact that the system asks to close some applications, and not delete them.
  
• Warning of a shortage of memory in the browser.
  
  
• Reduced application loading speed, locations in video games.

To solve problems with RAM, you can install an additional memory bar in the PC. For comfortable use of the browser, it is recommended to have at least 8 GB of RAM system. If you have a sound on the laptop, and the problem is in RAM, then everything is more complicated here, since the installation of new slats on laptops is either impossible at all, or is problematic, and the cost of it is significantly higher than that of the analogs for stationary PCs. But you can also comply with simple rules for saving RAM, which are also relevant for the above-mentioned stationary PCs.

• Try to close unnecessary tabs in the browser. The most frequently visited pages can be added to the bookmarks.
• Running modern video games, close the browser, or leave the minimum tab.
• Create a paging file on one of the hard drives or SSD.
• In the tray (the arrow up in the lower right corner of the screen), turn off the programs that you are currently not needed. Very often, by pressing the cross, you send the program in the tray, and not close completely. Steam may be settled there, for example. If you do not know, for which you need any program, you should not touch it.

Also, the sound may not disappear, but to start distorting. Often it happens with the video: the media file slows down, the sound becomes buzzing and unpleasant. It may also be associated with the insufficient PC power, but you can solve this problem without additional purchases. Solutions are somewhat.

Disconnecting the monopoly mode.




If the problem continues to appear, then try reinstalling the drivers. Instructions above.

Sound disappeared after installing Windows 10

Sound problems in this case may occur due to incompatibility of drivers and OS (rarely), or due to incorrect installation of the update. Unfortunately, the latter happens more often than might think. Suppose you stopped working sound, and without visible reasons. Of the good here, only the fact that this problem can be eliminated by a regular Windows tool. Not always, but in many cases. Click the PCM on the speaker icon in the lower right corner of the screen and select "Troubleshooting Sound". Follow the instructions.



You can also use a rollback version of the drivers to restore the sound.




If the sound does not work on the newly installed Windows 10, then download the drivers manually from the site of the sound card manufacturer.

Sound does not work in headphones

Surprisingly, but the most common cause of the lack of sound in headphones is the installation of a minimum volume on the headphones themselves. Often, users do not notice that the volume control on the headset is at minimal value.

Sometime quite frequent problem was incompatibility. Some (as a rule, cheap) headphones simply did not know how to work with Windows 10. This problem is even rare, but it can happen. It is almost impossible to correct it if the headphones do not work on the PC, and play, for example, on the phone or device with the last version of Windows, you will have to change them.

It is impossible not to mention the banal lack of drivers. The solution is described above. If you purchased headphones that require the installation of our own drivers (I did not have any personally, but there are such among modern gamers), then install them.

As a rule, the new device is automatically turned on, but sometimes there is no need to do it manually.

1. Click the PCM on the speaker icon in the lower right corner of the screen.
2. Select Sounds.
3. Playback - on the panel from above.
4. PCM on empty space.
5. Put the checkbox to show disabled devices.
6. If your headphones appeared, then click on them PKM and choose to enable.

The same applies to any other source of sound, may not be activated or not selected as the playback source not only headphones, but also an acoustic system or built into the speaker screen.

Conclusion

Thus, most problems associated with incorrect sound work appear due to improper operation of drivers or banal inattention users. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to cover the full spectrum of errors, because with each Windows update, old, but new appears. Universal Council - use the screening method. See the most likely reasons and descend to the least probable, in parallel, sacrificing yourself, how to configure the sound after the next problem update. So you have the highest chance to quickly eliminate the problem.

Sometimes, by virtue of certain life circumstances, it is necessary to put the operating system. Frequently, users find out that the sound has disappeared after reinstalling the system.

The probability of the situation is that after installing Windows 7, the sound disappeared, alas, far from uncommon. Fortunately, it is solved quite simply, if you know exactly the reason.

Possible reasons

The reasons for the sound to disappear may be somewhat. The main ones are hardware errors, that is, the violation of the sound card. In this case, without specialized assistance can not do. Or problems in the program part, and specifically, in the absence of drivers for a sound card.

If problems with the "iron", then solve the problem without special equipment and skills, you can hardly succeed. Solving problems of the program part is much simpler and does not require special knowledge and skills. To do this, you just need to confidently use the computer and not be afraid of it.

Options for solutions

So, if after installing Windows 7 there is no sound, then the first thing you need to check the connection of the audio system to the computer, as well as the fact that the audio system you use in the settings are selected. Check is as follows:

In the event that the audio system is enabled and used, and there is no sound anyway, the most likely reason for which the sound may disappear, in the fact that after reinstalling the seventh windows, drivers for a sound card or audio device were not installed. This problem is not so terrible and quite easily solved.

Search and install drivers

There are several ways to return the sound after reinstalling Windows, the easiest way to install distributions of control programs from the media, which is included with the device, there are all the necessary drivers. But if it happened so that there is no disc, you can install the drivers using standard windows.

So, for the belief, the OS is to re-install the drivers, follow the path specified in the address bar of the conductor: " Control Panel» → « system and safety"→" ". And select " Device Manager».

After completing these actions, the following window will appear:

In the window that appears, you must select " Sound, video and gaming devices"And from the opened list, select the desired system by clicking on the name twice. The properties window appears in which you want to select the " Driver».

In this window, you need to select the update button ..., and in the window that appears click on the point " Automatic search for updated drivers" After that, Windows will start looking for a program on the Internet and update or install it if such a need exists.

Manual installation

If the built-in Windows service told you, something like "installed software for this device does not need to be updated," that does not mean that it is really installed and does not need to be updated.

If you only installed the system, then no audio drivers are there. And the system simply gave a failure. Also, quite often, the automatic update service cannot find the desired software, in this case the direct path to manual search and install the necessary programs.

For this, the first thing you need to decide which sound card you have installed. If your card is integrated into the motherboard, then it is most likely, it is from Realtek, which means that you need to proceed to the manufacturer's website and download the desired software there. Device Manager Specifies built-in cards as High Definition Audio Device.

But since you can stand another audio card, it is better to know in advance what. To do this, follow in Start, find " Perform"And we write in the search string" dxdiag"And click OK.

In the window that appears, go to the tab " Sound."(Sound).

Line " Name."(Name) will tell about what a card is installed with you. After that, we already boldly go to the manufacturer's website and download the latest version of software for your card.

After installing the software, reboot the computer and check the availability of sound.

Using Driverpakov

If you have already tried everything, but after reinstalling Windows 7, the sound still does not work, then you have two ways. The first is to attribute a computer to a service center or use specialized software for installing drivers, for example. Download it better from the official site.

After starting, the program will make the system diagnostics and indicate to those drivers that need to be updated. And also selects the recommended software. Among other things there will be Avast. and Yandex browserif you don't need this happiness for nothing, go down the window below. Go to expert mode And set to manually what you should set.

Recommended drivers boldly install everything, but software and programs that DRP. It offers to delete, it is better to view and change the settings to those that will arrange you. The program can delete something you need.

Windows 7 sound service problems

Sometimes the drivers are really in order, and problems arise with the fact that the audio service does not start. To begin with, try to change the sound of the system a few times:

Hardware problems

If all previous methods did not bring the desired result, then most likely there are violations in the work of "iron". The audio card may fail in connection with the failure of some individual elements, and not the entire fee. But the owners of integrated cards will not so much. Built-in cards are not maintained, therefore, if it has occurred, it will have to buy a discrete sound card.

Discrete maps are usually subject to repair, but independently try to fix this device without appropriate skills and equipment, most likely, you just aggravate the situation and spend much more money than if they gave the card to professionals.

The reasons for which the refusal fails is:

• overheat;
• burnout;
• raw contacts;
• conditions;
• broken plugs;
• saving soldering;
• developer error or production marriage.

In order to extend the life of your computer, make it several times a year. This will allow the cooling system to most effectively perform its function and problems such as overheating and raw contacts, most likely you will not touch you.

However, not always the lack of sound is a consequence of the fact that the audio card was published. The first thing is to check the performance of the audio system, for this simply connect other columns to the computer.

Also, cords can go out, the replacement of which does not represent any complexity, especially this is characteristic of headphones.

Not always at home without equipment, you can really determine if the audio card has failed or problems with another device. Therefore, you should not panic immediately, it is best to diagnose in the service center, as well as update on a computer.

Video on the topic

Sometimes it happens that the updating of the drivers can lead to the inability to the equipment. This may be due to the most different factors. But most often this happens after updating sound drivers by means of Windows 10. This OS has long been seen in inadequate work with updates. If the drivers in Windows 10 disappeared after updating the drivers, then this is definitely an incompatibility problem. What to do in this case? We will consider the most popular and efficient solutions to the problem.

Why so it turns out?

The fact is that Windows 10 shakes updated versions of drivers from Microsoft official servers. And no one can vouch for their compatibility with one or another equipment. And if you still consider that usually on your own Windows servers are mainly outdated versions of the drivers, then there is nothing surprising in the fact that the sound disappeared after the latest update. However, not only the "dozen" sins by incorrect versions of the drivers when updating. And such cases are far from one.

But it happens that the operating system is at all at all. Frequently, manufacturers themselves produce drivers with an error. And in this case, the output is only one: roll back to the previous version. But sometimes it can be problematic. We will look at all solutions to the problem, if suddenly, after updating the drivers, sounded sound on a computer or laptop.

Start standing with the easiest solutions. Sophisticated are not suitable for everyone. So how to solve the problem with sound in modern operating systems? Very simple.

Correct the flaws of the update "WINDOVS 10"

So, if the sound is disappeared on the laptop after updating the drivers using the operating system, you will need to complete the reinstall. However, you will not download them from the manufacturer's website by hand. Use the capabilities of the operating system:

1. In the list of devices we are looking for sound and choose them.
2. Click right-click on the name of the audio device and in the menu that appears, select the "Update Driver" item.
3. Next, select "Run the driver search on this computer."
4. Click "Next" and waiting for the end of the installation.
5. Restart a PC or laptop.

This option will help if the problem has no global nature. Reinstalling the driver in this way, you can count on their full performance after rebooting the machine. However, it happens that such a way does not help. Then you can use a more advanced method.

The same, but with the console

Windows Command Line is a unique tool. With it, it is even possible to solve the problem when the sound disappeared after updating the audio driver. And if the previous option may fail, this method will always help. You just need to know what to do:

1. Click the Win + R keys combination and call the "Run" system component.
2. We enter in the CMD string and press ENTER or OK.
3. The console is launched. In it, enter the PNPUTIL / ENUM-DRIVERS command. It will display the list of installed drivers for devices.
4. Now choose the initial name intcaudiobus.inf and remember (or write) its published name (for example, Oemxxx.inf).
5. Enter the PNPutil / Delete-Driver Oemxxx.inf / Uninstall command. It will delete the existing driver.
6. Now open the "Control Panel".
7. Click "Device Manager".
8. Select the desired equipment and click "Update Drivers".
9. After updating, reboot your computer.

This method is good because the problem driver is completely removed from the operating system. And in its place you can safely deliver the "right" software.

Knock the driver after updating "Windows"

Another option can help if the sound in Windows 7, 8 or 10 disappeared after updating the drivers. Rollback is able to really help, since it is installed in place of a new driver, which is accurately operational. The most good thing in this way is that even a beginner can cope with him. You only need to clearly follow the proposed algorithm, and everything will be fine:

1. Open the "Control Panel".
2. Click on the "Device Manager" item.
3. Select the audio card in the device list.
4. Click right-click on the device and select the item "Properties" in the menu that appears.
5. Click on the button "Run".
6. The wizard will automatically install the previous version of the driver.
7. Reboot your computer.
8. Check the performance of sound.

This method is good because it allows you to install just those versions that exactly worked at one time. It helps to avoid possible errors when using newer versions. But, despite the fact that this method is very effective, it does not always help. It is good that there are alternative options.

If the sound does not completely disappear

It also happens that after updating the sound driver, sound disappeared, but not quite. That is, the sound is available, but the sound itself is or too quiet, or hits, or something else is distorted. In this case, it is clearly in the settings of the audio driver. Apparently, the operating system configured it automatically. And this led to this distortion. You can make only one thing here - to adjust the equipment correctly.

1. So, open the "Playback Devices" using a simple click on the image of the speaker in the system tray.
2. Next, select the device that contains the problem and click on the "Properties" button.
3. We move to the "Additional Features" tab.
4. Mark the item "Disable all effects" and click "Apply".
5. We move to the "Communication" tab.
6. We note "Action is not required."
7. We use everything that you just set up.
8. Check the sound quality.

Now everything should be reproduced clean, without any interference. If so, then the problem was in the settings. Now everything is all right. If not, you will have to continue to understand why, after updating the drivers, sound disappeared or was not high-quality enough.

If you have Via Audio

It was the laptops based on this chipset are most susceptible to problems with sound. This is largely due to the chipset itself. It does not apply to very high-quality products. And the developers of the drivers for this chipset often not very attentive. As a result, users themselves have to solve the problem when the sound has disappeared after updating the drivers:

1. We go to the "Control Panel".
2. Open the "Device Manager" already familiar to the way.
3. We remove the driver in the same way as described above.
4. We go to the section "Sound and Game Devices".
5. Delete these drivers.
6. Open the browser and look for current drivers from the manufacturer.
7. Download (necessarily the previous version) and install.
8. Reboot your computer.

This algorithm of action should solve the problem on laptops with a chipset from VIA. Installing the old version of the driver should definitely solve the problem in this case. In general, it is better to purchase an external sound card and not to suffer with embedded "grizzles." There are no problems with an external card. Now there are very interesting and inexpensive models on the market.

If nothing helps

If the sound is disappeared on the computer after updating the drivers and does not help any of the above, then the likelihood is that this update has greatly damaged the system files responsible for the sound. The solution to this problem will not be simple. Actually, here are only two options: system rollback using a control point or its full reinstallation.

The first option is suitable only if the control points were previously created to restore the operating system. If the OS protection was completely turned off (for example, in the case of Windows 10), then the rollback will not give anything.

But again, in the case of the "dozen" there is another method that is able to help if the sound disappeared after updating the drivers. We are talking about reset to factory parameters. At the output, the user will receive an absolutely clean operating system with a basic set of drivers. It is worth trying this option. It is really able to help. If, after that, everything will be bad, then perhaps the sound card simply failed for some reason.

Conclusion

So, we considered the question of what to do if the sound on the computer or laptop was disappeared after updating the drivers. All of the above methods are able to help. If only the sound card itself still works.

Many users encounter a problem that is that sounded sound on Windows 10, after downloading the next update.

Before proceeding with some specific actions, it is worth finding out why the sound on a computer or on a laptop with Windows 10 installed on it after the update is missing. Causes may be different: from the need to install additional drivers to problems caused by incorrectly set audio equipment settings.

Common problems and their possible solution

If, after installing or updating Windows 10, the sound icon disappeared, how can this problem be solved? This icon is usually installed on the desktop taskbar and find it there is no work. Such a problem is solved by turning on the volume icon using the "Turn on and off" options in the "Notifications and Actions" section by opening "System Parameters".

After reinstalling or updating the Windows operating system 10, a common problem is such a situation when system sounds are missing. This situation should be positively resolved after updating the drivers, which are selected depending on the specific model of your technology and download on the site of its manufacturer. You can learn about the availability of drivers on your hardware, going to the Device Manager section and looking at the tab with sound devices.

Sometimes before starting work with new software, you need to complete the current session of the equipment. After restarting the driver must start working correctly.

If the sound of a microphone or headphones disappeared literally for a second, in such cases also, as a rule, helps updating drivers. If the desired software is already installed and reflected in the device manager, click on it right-click and find this option there. The system will prompt you to update in automatic mode or manually: it is best to prefer the second option, and then select to update the suitable software downloaded in advance in the latest version from the manufacturer's website.

Sound check on various devices

Windows 10 can be installed correctly and at the same time all the necessary drivers are on the spot, but sometimes it does not solve the problem. In this case, the malfunction can be caused by incorrect settings or breakdown of the equipment you use:

• stationary computer;
• laptop;
• smartphone;
• headphones.

What should I do if a new laptop disappears with Windows 10 pre-installed on it? If you have just made a purchase, then you have the opportunity to require the diagnostics of your equipment and in case of malfunctions with sound devices require it to replace it.

Another common problem with which users periodically encounter is that the sound in headphones connected to the equipment with Windows 10 disappeared.

If you are a gamer, you know perfectly well that the sound in games is adjusted using your own settings of each such program. If everything is fine with the parameters of your operating system and the operation of your equipment, but the audio use in computer entertainment programs is still temporarily disappeared or constantly absent, check the settings that are specifically applied to this software.

Excellent day!

Imagine the situation: You turn on the computer, speakers, anticipating the view of a new film and suddenly it turns out: after the update, Windows 10 sound lost. At least it grieves. And if you are coming important negotiations or watch direct broadcast of the semi-finals of the World Cup? Almost catastrophe. We will tell you what can be done if after updating Windows 10 there were problems with sound.

The easiest

First check the performance of columns and headphones. External devices can be tried to adapt to another PC or gadget. Inspect all the wires, make sure the plugs are tightly included in the ports.

If the equipment is properly, use the system service. Mouse over the columns icon in the tray and click right key.

Wait until the end of the diagnosis and read the recommendations.

Perform the actions that you suggested to solve the problem when the volume disappeared. In our case, let's try to disable all sound effects. This can help when there is a quiet sound after updating Windows 10. And what to do if you follow the link and read detailed instructions for solving this problem.

Check that the correct devices are specified as active.

Go to the "Sounds" section by clicking the PCM on the mixer icon.

On the tab "Reproduction" Select the desired equipment.

Reinstalling drivers

If there are no visible reasons, but after updating Windows 10, the sound does not work, we are looking for problems in the drivers. They will be found in device manager (PCM on the main button).

In the audio hardware section, you must see the normal name of the equipment.

If you are only the type of device and signature "Device with High Definition Audio"This indicator is that when updating the system was not able to determine the model and manufacturer, and universal drivers were installed that did not work with your devices. And as a result, audio fiction gone.

You need to download the right "firewood". Look for them in the search engine. Enter the name of the laptop or motherboard and the word "Support".

Go on the link and proceed according to the requirements of the site. For Lenovo, for example, you need to specify the serial number or full model. After that, the list of software will be issued. Look for a suitable. If you have not yet installed windows10 OS, then we advise you to include you.

Attention! Not necessarily drivers will be written precisely under Windows 10. If there are no - not scary, download the latest version. Check out the matching match: 32 or 64.

Download and install. Check if nothing has changed, and the audio signal is disappeared, you should start the installation in compatibility mode with the system for which the driver is written.

1. Open the folder with the executable file and call the properties window.

2. On the panel "Compatibility" Click the daw and choose the appropriate version of the OS.

3. Apply the changes and run the file again.

If everything remains unchanged and the situation when there is no sound after updating Windows 10 (unexpectedly disappeared), it remains, do the following:

1. Go to the Task Manager.
2. Remove from the sections "Audio inputs and audio outputs" and "sound, game and video devices" All devices indicated as unidentified.

3. Run again compatible with the old installation option.

Especially often this way to solve the problem when the sound disappeared after updating the drivers on Windows 10, helps with RealTek devices.

Reduced volume level

When, after updating Windows 10, the sound has become quieter or the volume gradually disappeared by itself, go to the "Communication" panel in the properties window.

Click "Action is not required".

The screen has an inscription, what to do and how to remove the inscription forever you will learn in another article on the site.

And the last reason why, after updating Windows 10, it works poorly or disappeared completely sounding the "Windows Audio" service.

1. Press Win + R and vBE SERVICES.MSC.

2. The Microsoft Services window will appear. Dog up to the desired string and make sure that everything is turned on.

We hope this information will help you!
