Vostro 3470 Audio Driver

[Elly Garnand]

Ihave a Dell Vostro 3470, with the Intel HD 630 chipset for video/audio. Recently I upgraded to Windows 11, via a clean install from a USB drive. And since then, I have not been able to get audio working through HDMI. I am using an LG non-smart TV.

1) uninstall & clean install of all current Intel and Dell drivers.

2) removal of device from Device Manager, reboot and install again. not showing any exclamation or question marks.

3) BIOS checked for Intel Audio.

4) changed ports on TV and tried other known working HDMI cables.

5) verified other devices with sound worked on TV

I bought the Inspiron 14 7000 series laptop. When it arrived it had a static/wishy noise throught any headsets I used. The motherboard broke after a month. They sent it for repair which took a total of 6 weeks from breaking to re-delivery. They replaced the motherboard but said the sound was fine. When it came back, had the same sound issue. They just sent me the 15 7000 series as a replacement but it has the same sound issue. I think it must be a systemic problem with the series.For the price it is completely unacceptable.

hi, i just updated my dell inspiration 15 laptop and the sound is not working after i updated it.

this is the 2nd time the first time was in august after i updated my laptop and i ended up by taking it to the shop ! and i bought a new one and now this is the same!!

Hi, the audio on my Dell Inspiron has suddenly stopped working since yesterday. Both with speakers and with headphone. The only recent downloads are Windows 10 upgrade. The sound worked fine for a few days after the upgrade also. Please help.

then thought of uninstalling all the audio drivers and the re-installing. So downloaded latest IDT audio driver from dell site, uninstalled all audio drivers and then restarted computer, then installed newly downloaded driver, again restarted and bingo. Now works fine.

Worked for me (Dell Inspiron 15 (N5010))

Dell Latitude is a line of laptop computers manufactured and sold by American company Dell Technologies. It is a business-oriented line, aimed at corporate enterprises, healthcare, government, and education markets; unlike the Inspiron and XPS series, which are aimed at individual customers, and the Vostro series, which is aimed at smaller businesses.

The Latitude line directly competes with Lenovo's ThinkPad, HP's EliteBook, and Acer's TravelMate. The "Rugged (Extreme)", "XFR" and "ATG" models compete primarily with Panasonic's Toughbook line of "rugged" laptops. There is also a Latitude named "Latitude XP".

The Dell Latitude series have dropped the initial alphabet in newer model types (as in Latitude 7480 whose predecessor was E7470), and became the successor to the popular Latitude E, D, C, and X series. The Latitudes from the early 1990s up until the C*00 lines weren't in a set "series", instead of going under the models CP and XP with modifiers at the end, e.g.: XPi, CP M233.

In the past, the high-end line was the 6 series, being the C6x0, D6x0, and E64x0 lines, but as of 2015 this line has been discontinued and replaced by both the 5 series and the 7 series. The 15" "Premium" line was the 8 series, until the E-series merged this line with the 6 series (Model numbers being along the lines of C8x0 or D8x0). The entry-level line was the 5 series, but as of 2015 the 5 series and 7 series Latitude laptops are the primary lines of Latitude laptops. The 3 series has replaced the 5 series as the budget line. Dell has also since dropped the E from the Latitude line (due to switching to a USB C/Thunderbolt dock system, rather than the e-Port analog pin-system docks), and the models are delineated by number now, e.g.: Latitude 5480, 5570. The second number in the model (as in, 5470 or 7280) indicates the size of the screen on the laptop.

Latitude computers are also differentiated in their feature sets, due to their business focus. For example, they often include security features such as smartcard and contactless smartcard, and TPM security, vPro and AMD DASH management, DisplayPort (as opposed to HDMI), Docking stations and support for legacy standards are all results of the requirements of the business market.

Some models also have the capability of Latitude ON which can be selected during the configuration of the laptop. Latitude ON is essentially a system within a system. It requires a separate add on module which contains its own microprocessor and operating system. This allows the laptop to function in the realm of a netbook.

Dell used the "E-series" name up through the 2016 models, and new 2017 models drop the "E."[2][3] and Dell E-Port Replicator with it. As of February 2017. Latitude computers are available in three series: the 3000, 5000, and 7000. The 3000 series is designed to be entry-level aimed at the education market and small businesses, This series did not exist prior to Haswell (xx40) as the Vostro Series was consolidated into the Latitude lineup to form the 3000 series. The 5000 series is mid-range. It includes a high-performance subseries whose model designations end in 1. These devices are available with higher-TDP (45w) processors, discrete graphics and NVMe SSDs. The 6000 series sat above the 5000 series. The 7000 series consists of high-end Ultrabook computers, introduced in 2014 with the Latitude E7440 and E7240 and replaced the existing high end 6000 series. Mobile workstation versions of Latitude used 5000 series instead of 6000 series.

Aside from the 3000, 5000, and 7000 series, Dell also provides an Education and Rugged Series of Latitude computers. The Education series laptops are designed for use in educational institutions and are geared towards office and internet based applications. The Rugged series laptops are similar to the previous Latitude XFR computers. They are designed with extra durability in mind.

The Latitude D6x0 series is the 14"/14.1" corporate model. It aims to combine heavy-duty power with reasonable portability, and differs primarily from D8x0 series in screen size. All are two spindle designs, with a "D/bay" modular bay which can interchange optical drives, a second hard drive, a floppy disk, a Zip drive, or a second battery. All models have a smart card socket, PCMCIA socket, 9-pin serial port, a "D-dock" port for a docking station or port replicator, and have an internal socket for an 802.11 wireless card.
