Icontinue to have trouble with a "pop" sound every time I start playing a video (youtube, etc.), anytime that I change the volume, and also during most Windows alerts. It's driving me up a wall. It also happens any time that I skip to a different point in a video (youtube, etc.).
I RIGHT click on it and choose "Disable Device". As soon as I do that, NO MORE POPPING SOUNDS. However, the audio is not quite as rich (it's good sound, but not as good as when it is enabled--but the popping sound just drives me nuts).
Thanks Xavier! Tell your boss to give you a raise. Your solution worked great. In the past I have always used the generic drivers from Intel (since they are updated much more frequently than the HP drivers)---turn out that's not a good idea with this computer.
2. Go the Device Manger, RIGHT click on HD 620 under display drivers and choose "uninstall", then in the box that pops up put a check in the box for "delete all drivers for this device". If you get a message that you're about to install drivers older than the current drivers, choose YES/install/OK. Whenit's finished and it asks to reboot, choose LATER.
3. Still in Device Manager, under System Devices, RIGHT click on Intel Smart Sound Technology (Intel(R( SST) Audio Controller and choose "uninstall", then in the box that pops up put a check in the box for "delete all drivers for this device".

My computer is a p7-1534, product number H2N63AA#ABA, running Windows 8.1 64-bit. The audio driver was an IDT, downloaded direct from HP, specifically provided for my system. I'm trying to figure out how to completely remove Beats Audio from my system. It shows up in the Control Panel under Beats Audio, but doesn't show up in the Programs section, so I can't figure out how to uninstall it...or can it be uninstalled without uninstalling the entire driver? I tried disabling it in the Beats Audio screen, and it got rid of most of the effect it has on audio, but not all - the bass is still noticably louder than it should be. All I want is for the music to sound just as it was recorded originally in the studio, not artificially enhanced by Beats Audio.
I think I finally got rid of it. I searched drive C for "beats" and "beat" and erased all of them that appeared to be related to Beats Audio. I had to do that three times, each time deleting any Beats files tht showed up in a search. Finally, after the third boot, nothing showed up in the search. My audio is working just fine, and no more Beats Audio. I imagine I could still run Beats through the motherboard but, as long as i don't try to run Beats, it's no longer automatically loading at boot.
Michael, go into the Control Panel / Device Manager / Sound, video and game controllers / right click on the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC and select "Uninstall". This will remove it from your computer. You have to have some other driver to put in its place to have audio.
Thanks for the response, Provost, but that doesn't work. When I re-boot, Windows just re-installs the audio driver and Beats Audio is still there. I also actually un-installed the "IDT" program in addition to uninstalling IDT in the device manager - Windows still re-installs IDT with Beats Audio upon re-boot.
I found a easy way to get rid of that auful beatsaudio, I try everything that I found here and had no results at all, I manage to get rid of the icon on the left of my desktop but when I checked the control panel I still can fin the Beats Icon and still could sence the software coming trough my music, So I look for Beats on my serch icon beside the windows start (Windows 10) and on the first icon I left clicked and put unistall, and it did get me to the modify/uninstall window, but no beatsaudio icon... But a Realteck Hig Def Audio I did see... so I Uninstall that one and... walla!! Eureka! No beats anywhere! no in control panel. Hope can work for you guys to.
I installed MorphVox audio changer on my mac for testing, then I uninstalled it, but the audio drivers are still there, I can still see MorphVox speakers and microphone devices. Any tips how can I remove these drivers?
To my knowledge, the only VSL product that uses GPU audio so far is MIR 3D Pro. So yes, you can uninstall MIR 3D Pro and Synchron Player will still work. But to me it seems kinda silly to do that when the GPU audio is turned off by default in MIR 3D Pro and you have to turn it on, so I don't know why you would use the nuclear option of deleting MIR 3D Pro when you can simply turn off the very prominent switch in the MIR 3D Pro user interface to turn off the GPU audio, which you would have had to turn on yourself to be active.
It looks from the forum that VSL is going to be integrating some kind of GPU audio processing into the Synchron player in the future, but I think it is only in beta test versions at the moment. Maybe you are part of the beta program for Synchron Player and you have a beta test version that supports GPU audio, and then I don't know, but I would assume there is a prominent switch to turn it off in the Synchron Player somewhere without having to uninstall anything, like there is in MIR 3D Pro.
They are probably shared libraries / dependencies for the VSL software. If you were to remove them, things that try to reference them probably would not start or work properly, even if they are not being used. I get people trying to keep the system clean, but the alternative would be for VSL to include a separate copy of GPU audio with each program that potentially used it and then you would have multiple copies in the system even though it wouldn't appear in add/remove programs.
Having it installed is not going to slow down the system. From what I can see, it does not even seem to start any background services or processes whatsoever, so there should be zero performance impact by having those.
The GPU Audio installer is integrated into the MIR Pro 3D installer - of course, you can uninstall whatever you want on your system. But it will be back whenever you install the next MIR Pro update.
Best regards,
Andreas
I've just checked, and this is not entirely accurate. GPU audio stuff gets automatically (re-)installed with Synchron Player updates as well. I have never demoed (or even looked at) anything MIR related, and yet the GPU Audio trio of programs just reappeared on my system for the second time when I updated Synchron.
Those devices are the ones you have available as endpoints, they cannot be deleted (afaik).
When they are not seen by Roon as endpoints, they dissapear.
They apear in audio zones as selectable endpoints when you enable them.
If you have recently upgraded to Windows 10, your previous audio driver might not be compatible. Uninstalling and reinstalling your audio device might resolve the issue. Press Windows Key + X and click Device Manager. Then expand Sound > video and game controller. S elect your audio device, right-click it and Uninstall. Please restart your computer and let Windows redetect it. You can also check Windows Update for the latest drivers for your sound card.
