After upgrading, I enabled the stereo mix option and set it to default, but it did not work. I have installed and reinstalled the Realtek HD Audio drivers from both the acer support site and the Realtek site. It says that it is working properly, but the green bar does not raise next to it, even with the level set to 100. I have tried searching google for a solution, but I can only find how to enable it, not how to get it to work properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/6920-sound-problem-in-windows-7#post-4061 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 22:50:17 +0000 afterhourpower 4061@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>btw new real tek hd sound output made sound worse.

I REPEAT, I HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM.</p> <p>After a fresh install of Windows 7 I was convinced it was a hardware fault - with the Cinedash still not working or controlling the audio at all. I also noticed that the cinedash was having lots of issues, changing brightness and turning off completely randomly.</p> <p>I then realised that i'd, as soon as I bought it, installed the NEWEST BIOS from the Acer site - specifically version 1.14 from the Acer support section:</p> <p><a href="http://www.acer.co.uk/acer/service.d...CRC=2980211862" rel="nofollow">http://www.acer.co.uk/acer/service.d...CRC=2980211862</a></p> <p>I thought, could it be this? Yes, it would be wierd as everything was working until i did the realtek driver update, but feck it, it's worth a shot. I downgraded by BIOS to v1.13 and guess what? Cinedash is now working! Launch manager 2.0.0.2 is running fine alongside the newest Realtek drivers!</p> <p>Can't believe i formatted the machine before realising this... time to set it all up again</p> <p>I hope this is of some use to others - DO NOT UPGRADE TO BIOS VERSION 1.14 IF ON WINDOWS 7! </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/6935g-windows-7-launch-manager-and-realtek-drivers#post-3327 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 15:31:24 +0000 ReflexReaction 3327@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>Ok, so I've read ALL of the threads on Launch Manager + Windows 7 here. I do not have a solution for the following problem:</p> <p>I have a Acer 6935G which I have recently installed Windows 7 on (x64). Windows found most of the drivers, audio included. I then downloaded the Windows Vista version of Launch Manager (version 2.0.0.2), and installed - and yes, everything worked great.</p> <p>That is, until I found I had an issue with my microphone in Skype. I had ALOT of audio noise coming through when using the mic... I realised this was because the gain was up too high, however to reduce the microphone gain (or boost), it was impossible with the stock Windows 7 drivers.</p> <p>So? I went to Realtek's website and downloaded the newest Realtek HD Audio driver - for Windows 7. I installed this, and then low and behold, in the Audio manager, I found that the mic boost was set to +20db! I removed this boost, and my audio issues were fix! Horray... Or at least, so I thought.</p> <p>Upon doing this, I realised that the new Realtek audio drivers had some how stopped Launch Manager from working correctly. The "e", web and e-mail buttons all work fine, however the touch screen audio slider, mute button, etc. do not register when I press them. </p> <p>Even before installing Launch Manager, on a fresh install, the mute button would work!</p> <p>So this led me to go down the route that Launch Manager, and specifically the "Cinedash" part (volume controls etc) were trying to control the wrong audio device. In my audio devices, I have two "playback devices" listed, Speakers (on Realtek High Definition Audio) and Realtek Digital Output (also on Realtek High Definition Audio).</p> <p>I went ahead and disabled the latter (Realtek Digital Output), but no, nothing... the controls on the cinedash still didn't do anything!</p> <p>So, i decided I'd uninstall the Realtek drivers i'd just installed. After doing that? Nothing! The cinedash audio controls STILL don't control my audio! </p> <p>I'm so confused and annoyed with all this!</p> <p>If anyone can help, then please please do let me know. There must be a hacky way to map the audio controls on the left to the audio in windows without Launch Manager (which now doesn't work with any Windows 7 Driver!)</p> <p>Thanks in advance,</p> <p>ReflexReaction </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/acer-6930-hd-audio-driver-problems#post-3139 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:47:01 +0000 leonardtj@gmail.com 3139@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>al you need to do is install the correct drivers from the Acer site. </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/acer-6930-hd-audio-driver-problems#post-2804 Sat, 03 Oct 2009 20:54:44 +0000 leoshail 2804@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>i do not know after some time of purchased i formatted my laptop 6930G , but after that i saw that NVIDIA high definition audio , unplugged in.

Since I've had the 6935G I've been updating the drivers when they've been released by realtek. I knew that you had to install the original drivers and then update because the original drivers had a file or two to allow the cinebass to work. But about a month ago I had windows 7 installed and thought I could live without the cinebass until any solutions came along to work under windows 7 but the audio under windows 7 sounded all kinds of wrong.</p> <p> I then messed around with windows 7 and corrupted the bootloader. So used acer recovery to reinstall vista. I installed vista and the original driver and when trying to install new drivers they sound justbad. cinebass doesn't work and there is a real lack of bass in the headphones. I listen to a lot of music through headphones and the original drivers lack the sound quality the newer ones have. </p> <p>So is anyone having problems with the new drives or is it just me. I also have acer eaudio and when you put the music in to rock it goes really tinny with newer drivers. with the original the rock setting sounds like expect it.</p> <p>All I want is the sound to work under the newer drivers like it does under the originals. </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/sound-and-explorer-issues-on-acer-aspire-5920#post-2765 Wed, 30 Sep 2009 02:22:06 +0000 nicnak 2765@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>Got an Acer Aspire 5920 (with Vista home premium sp2) that I've had since 2006, which until a few days ago was working reliably, when for some reason after restarting it on the 27th I noticed that there was no sound coming out of the speakers at all whether it's listening to music, watching clips on youtube, etc though prior the speakers did seem to get a bit strained now and again only when listening to radio though it didn't sound serious at the time. </p> <p>I checked on playback devices to see what the issue was and saw I only had Realtek Digital Output and Speakers, and was also told both were working fine despite no sound coming out after testing both of them.</p> <p>Somehow I can still get sound on speakers (at max) though though its very poor (can hardly hear anything) and also keeps crackling now and again when I'm not trying to listen to anything.</p> <p>Also at about the same time iexplore.exe began to crash a lot often within a few minutes of using it (and with only two tabs at most) as well as noticing it quickly building up to about 140.000+ k of memory (even seen 250.000-300.000+ k now and again), I've also not noticed any change when going from Explorer 7 to 8 during that time.</p> <p>I honestly hope the above issues are fixable and not signs that my laptop is on its last legs or anything like that </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/acer-6930-hd-audio-driver-problems#post-1842 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 23:03:23 +0000 noober 1842@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>Ok I own the 6390 and did the same thing, except I used a 32-bit XP for my installation, to which you can find the drivers for on two sites with a quick Google search. What you might want to try doing is using the 64-bit Vista drivers that came with the computer that you hopefully have on the Drivers backup CD you hopefully created first before downgrading. Try those drivers out and see if those work. </p> http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/topic/acer-6930-hd-audio-driver-problems#post-1841 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 18:31:52 +0000 virtigo 1841@http://www.theacerguy.com/forum/ <p>Recently purchased a 6930 and it came preloaded with Vista Home Premium. Since the system is for my wife and she can't stand Vista (can't really blame her) I downgraded to XP Pro x64. After loading SP2 and all the drivers I still can't get the "Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus" and "Modem Device on High Definition Audio Bus" drivers to load. </p> <p>I've trolled the internet looking for drivers, attempted pretty much ever suggestion that is out there and is yielded no results. (Multiple Realtek driver revisions and patches/updates along with all the MSKB updates)</p> <p>This is a last effort before I have to try and reload XP Pro x64 and try the drivers/patches before loading SP2 (was the only suggestion I haven't tried yet) If anyone has any other suggestions I would really appreciate it. </p>
