Drivers/Hardware :: Buzzing Sound Through Brand New Headset (and Other Headsets)
Jan 7, 2016
So I'm trying to get an external microphone (on a headset) working on my recently bought HP laptop (it's the Star Wars LE here), last night I was testing my headset but there is a really loud buzzing sound even when there's absolutely no interference in the room.
I've tried updating all drivers and even went and bought a new headset today for $40, so its definitely not the headset. In control panel I don't have Realtek Audio Manager (I did on my old laptop), but I have this "B & O Play" software which is a basic alternative. I've tried messing with those settings to no avail.
My older headset is one which has green and pink jacks, so I have a splitter for those, but my new headset has a combo jack so it connects directly.
Here's the weird part though, control panel > sound, whenever I talk into the mic on the headset, it actually comes through the "headphones" under sound:
But in recording, the microphone (which is seems to come through) doesn't have any kind of noise level, but if I disable it, the mic on the headset stops.
(The other mic available is the built in one for the camera).
So I just updated my Toshiba laptop from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 and now I'm having audio problems. At first after I upgraded I had no sound. I fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling my Realtek audio driver. Now I got my sound back, but now whenever I play audio the sound isn't clear anymore Especially when I use YouTube. I updated my Realtek audio driver from version 6.0.1.7541 to 6.0.1.7586 and I still hear the buzzing! I tried audio troubleshooting and it said the problem couldn't be identified. What do I do?
Ever since I installed Win 10 every now and then I hear a buzzing sound whenever I'm playing a game or watching a video, whatever produces sound and it lasts for about a second or so and sometimes it even freezes for that amout of time. What could it be?
For some reason my microphone wont work. I recently upgraded my mobo and cpu and earlier this weekend it was working. I havent changed anything since then. The headphones still work and whenever i pug it into my I/O port it opens realtek control panel and it asks me if i plugged in the mic and i say yes or whatever. When I go into recording devices and put the volume and boost the gain it makes a buzzing but no sound. It is set to default device. I tried reinstalling the drivers but nothing.
I have windows 10 x64, and when i watch on YouTube my pc do some freeze with buzzing sound for 2 seconds, this process is repeated after 2 hours approximately, sometimes my AMD client do some crash, when this happened my pc work fine without crashes. I can do something ? I don't want to close AMD host application.
After upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 my audio now plays through my headset and through my computers speakers.
FAQ: -Have you updated your drivers: Yes I have. -Have you set the headset as default device: Yes I have. -What audio do you have: Ok, I not sure which one I have, but I can find VIA HD and on Windows 8.1 (not on Windows 10) I use to have Realtek audio manager which I have now lost. -What headset do you have: Sennheiser G4ME ZERO.
Okay, so i finished upgrading to W10 now, and when i plug in my corsair h2100. A wireless headset, Windows keep alerting or something with this wierd sound. It sounds like "damalam" and it is a non stop sound.
The sound is the Windows 10 disconnecting sound. But that's weird. nothing is being disconnected by it self.

Solution : D-Link USB Hub is not currently W10 supported. That's why?
I'm trying to make the In-game sounds and every other system sounds sound in the speaker, and the Skype/TS/Raidcall (i'm using raidcall) in the headset but i don't know how to make it. I know i can make the Raidcall sound in the headset in the configurations, but i don't know how to make Windows (win10) and every other sound to sound in the speakers. I'm using the Realtek audio (Gigabyte Z97-Gaming 5 MOBO).
Purchased a WD 6TB Blue yesterday, ran disk management and created one partition using NTFS. Formatted and did its thing but it just displays the total size of the partition with RAW next to it. Tried reformatting again to NTFS but I get the error; "The format did not complete successfully".
Deleted the partition and tried to create a 2TB partition out of the drive with the exact same scenario happening again. Tried swapping between GPT and MBR with no success. Also tried a different SATA port with a different cable and same thing.
Ran Windows error checking and WD LifeGuard on Extended Test over night and both came back with no errors.
Ran Disk Part in cmd, after entering in clean i get the error; "DiskPart has encountered an error: The device is not connected. See the System Event Log for more information."

I have just bought a brand new Viglen Omnio 5 all in one PC pre loaded with Windows 10. Everything works fine except that when I go into file explorer and try to right click on a file to edit/copy etc it just hangs and locks the whole screen. The mouse works perfectly on everything out of file explorer. I know this problem has been around for a while but I cannot find a solution anywhere. Because the OS was preloaded I don't have any driver discs.
as the title mentions I did a windows 10 refresh, mainly due to some random issues I was having. Since then everything has run smoothly, all previous issues resolved except for the fact that now every time I turn on my headset (Turtle Beach px5 - bluetooth connected via a bluetooth adapter) The fan speeds up just for a second, and will do the same when I turn the headset off. This is the same sort of very brief spin-up the fan has always done during a boot since first purchasing the pc. It has never spun up outside of booting the pc until just days ago when I refreshed windows 10.
My first guess was that there was a conflict and maybe one device was getting confused with another but the device manager shows no conflicts.
Ever since I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10, I've been experiencing brief audio popping/cracking noise. Sometimes I could go an hour and not hear anything, other times I hear a pop every 30 seconds. There has to be sound playing for the popping to occur. Its brief, but can get annoying when listening to music.
I have tried many things including: -Updated drivers (Realtek HD Audio)(AMD GPU drivers)(Realtek Network Card) -Tried disabling Realtek HD Audio since it doesn't effect USB audio -I do not have a WiFi card so its not that -Its not a DPC Latency issue; No spikes from LatencyMon -Disabled sound enhancements from playback devices -Its not the headphones themselves as they work fine on other sources -I tried an old set of ear buds that weren't USB and they seemed to work fine so it may just be USB audio.
I do have a Dell XPS 435t/9000 that's about 4 years old with some hardware changes like PSU/GPU etc., maybe its the motherboard? (Though that's kind of a stretch). Dell says that certain computers don't support windows 10 upgrade, but I feel like that's just so they don't hold you responsible if you do upgrade, as everything else works perfectly.
I have a G35 headset and I plugged it in the back of my computer. Now, when I start Windows, its not detected until I re plug it in. Its only with this headset, nothing else too. The USB works because I re plug it in again and it detects again. My sound card is Realtek.
I can get it to pair and says it is paired but it says it is disconnected in the playback and recording settings dialog box. Is it possible my devices are too old the Bluetooth dongle is BT2.0 and the headset is a MotorolaT225 hands free speakerphone for my cellphone which works fine. If they are then what headset does work with win10 out of the box?
I have headset Genius HS-500X and it has 2 seperate cables for audio and mic. The problem is that my laptop has only 1 jack with headphones and microphone icon, so it should be a combo jack. About 2 months ago I've bought an splitter [URL] , that has one cable red and one green so it should work. It's the same as in picture. But when I plug everything in correctly microphone is not working and headphones have reversed sound, when sound should come from left side it comes from right. I've tried to reinstall software (realtek) many times, also bought another one splitter, but no success.
I have a few bluetooth headsets (the little mono in-ear ones) that I used with Win7 for Skype calls. Now I have Win10 & went to use one for the first time today. The device is found, added, & connected OK, but the only 'Service' available is 'Handsfree telephony'. There was another one under Win7, 'Headset' I think.
None of them show up in as an input or output in Skype options, nor are they listed under 'Audio Inputs and Outputs' in device manager.
The devices themselves haven't changed their capabilities, so is Win10 using some generic BT headset driver that doesn't provide the audio service? Is there some way of switching it on?
The Conexant HD Audio Sound Driver was replace by High Definition Audio Device after i update to Windows 10 Home Version 1511 from 1011
Now if i want to plug my earphones to the left side of the computer where the audio jack socket is located the sound does not transfer to my earphones except i will change the default sound device from speakers to headphones.
How can i set it to automatically when i plugin my headphones/earphones/external speaker automatically transfer the sound to this device without changing the settings?
I just installed the most recent windows 10 tech preview last night; but my sound blaster pci express sound card did not get installed correctly or something because i am getting no sound at all. I roll everything back to the old setup.
Upgraded old laptop (HP Pavilion dv2225) to WinX and everything works except for sound. Device Manger (Win key+ X) shows no missing drivers for sound. Used to play AoK under Win 7.
I have a year-old Lenovo G500 laptop, and recently it started doing this loud, buzzing sound quite often, even when there's only one program opened. I checked CPU and disk usage the first few times it happened, but they're fairly low. I'm not exactly sure if the sound is coming from a fan or is it HDD. I do know for sure that the fan isn't dusty, when I brought it to a tech shop they told me there's no need for a cleaning.
So, today I we're gonna go on skype on a friend, instantly when calling he complained that it sounded like someone shoved up a drill inside his ear.
I went on steam sound test and all I heard was : Static/buzzing noise.I tried reinstalling realtek HD audio drivers which didn't work.Unplugging and plugging in the mic didn't work either.Changing mic boost settings didn't work either...
The mic is not a USB mic, it is plugged in to the front of the pc using the mic and headset ports.The sound however is working fine.Mic works perfect in my mac when using some kind of turn 2 cables into 1 thing. The mic does pick up sounds but it seems to be losing pretty much 99% of it's quality on it's way into the speakers/headset.
I recently built my pc about a week ago and when i play games, my pc screen crashes and the screen freezes (Explosions in Rocket League), I hear a buzzing noise in my headphones during the crash, and my pc reboots to windows like normal. I've run mem test 86, prime 95, deleted nvidia audio drivers, and installed every driver available for my mobo, gpu, and cpu, and the temperatures also were great when stress testing. I downloaded a program called Who Crashed and it showed me the reason for the crash. It is the same one over and over. It has to do something with Video Memory in the graphics card, but these errors are beyond my knowledge of computers. I am running Windows 10 64 bit. PC specs and the error message below; (bad GPU memory?)

I just recently got the new XPS 13, and when I was setting up my machine, it asked me if I wanted to reserve a copy of Windows 10, which I did, of course. But I haven't seen anything saying or confirming that I've reserved a copy of Windows 10, and there isn't a Get Windows 10 app in my system tray.
I am trying to upgrade a number of machines to Windows 10 Pro. Latest one is a new laptop - fresh install and after it has been running a while it comes up at 100 CPU and it is something to do with Service host local system. This is not the only machine to be affected by this and what I have done to fix this is disable the windows update service.
my brand new Skylake (Scan 3XS) PC keeps crashing. I had Windows 10 Home originally, but upgraded to 64-bit Pro version and a fresh install. I thought it was down to Bitdefender. Everything seemed fine once I uninstalled it. However the BSODs are back. A common theme is that PC seems to be running for a long time when this happens.
I would get random freezes from day 1, and suspect it might be the RAM, despite memtest86 showing no errors.
