Guest Franco Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 I bought a Gateway with a Centrino Duo on the 7th, I decide to do the Windows Vista update, and suddenly my audio device doesn't work. I went through, being mostly computer literate, and checked the Device Manager, which says the Audio Device is working, but when I try to play music, it says that there is no Output Device installed. Under the Device Manager, I'm at Sound, video, and game controllers. It says that this "SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC" is working, but it clearly isn't. I was listening to music before the update, and now it doesn't work... I've tried updating the Driver, but it says the one I have is up-to-date. I read some other Discussions to see if anyone else is having a similar problem, and it said something about copying some values into the Hardware IDs, but mine look like this: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0260&SUBSYS_02600000&REV_1003 which is what the guy said except with a 1 at the end instead of a 3. Help please, if anyone can. I'm thinking I should perhapse take it to someone local if I can't figure it out.
Guest realcestmoi Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Hi there, Did you try rolling back on the diver in device manager under the properties of the sound device?

Guest Franco Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 I looked for that, but it's grey. So this is the newest and oldest driver I can use, or something...I'm going to try using the recovery disc.

Guest realcestmoi Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Hi there, Recovery should work but you can first try this: Try booting with F8 from the menu appearing choose last known good configuration. If that or later the recovery works and you are going to update again skip any driver updates from windows update.

Guest Franco Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 I just ended up using the recovery disc, then I updated again, and it worked...I dunno what the problem was, but it seems to be fixed now.
