The irony is I have been using the ProBook 6560b like this for at least two years now, using the displayport with the same adapter cable with no issues whatsoever. Nothing was loaded and a reboot did nothing to change this.
Unfortunately the answer was the most current driver is already installed. Restart the PC, and see if you now get the Intel audio device to show up where you can select it when you connect via the display port. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked, and see if the driver installs that way. Select the Browse my computer for driver software option, and browse to the driver folder you unzipped. Go to the device manager, click to expand the Sound, Video, and game controllers device manager category.Ĭlick on the driver tab. Do not do anything with the files in the folder. I have zipped up and attached below, the Intel audio driver out of the W8 graphics driver.ĭownload and unzip the file to its folder. This would be the only idea I can think of for you to try. The graphics driver contains the HDMI audio driver to work the audio out of the display port. There isn't even a W8.1 Intel graphics driver on the support page (for which I am at a loss to understand).
HP does not support your notebook for W10, and there are no W10 graphics drivers on the support page.
However there was no Samsung audio showing and the audio only comes from the laptop.īut here is what is the most confusing to me, I can't get her computer to show the Samsung audio again, only that one time when it worked with the Youtube video.ĭoes this problem sound familliar? Any suggestions what I might try doing at this point? I disconnected the adapter cable from her computer, turned off my computer, connected the cable to mine and started it up again, just as I had done with hers. Looking in the audio devices it had the IDT High Definition Audio Codec but it also had a Samsung audio device showing. To add to the confusion, I used my girlfriend's HP laptop 6450b which has the same driver from the link above, plugged in the DisplayPort adapter and started her computer and when I played a youtube video, the audio came through perfectly. Nothing I have tried has allowed me to get an audio driver to come up to select for the TV. I tried an updated IDT driver for win 7 & 8.1, the Intel HD Graphics Driver for Windows 7/8-64-bit "win64_152824" and ended up with the same results. Connecting to the displayPort does nothing, no video, no audio no recgonition of a connection. I removed the IDT driver and went to the native Windows driver and then it showed microsoft speakers and three non connected HDMI devices. Looking at the playback device info it only shows: When I play a video on the TV the video is perfect but the audio comes from the laptop.
I used the IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver V. .0 from the HP driver download .
I loaded Win 7 as a fresh install thinking those drivers might work but they did not. I looked under the audio playback devices and only saw one active device, for the laptop speakers. I loaded Win 10 and tried to use the displayport but had no audio. However, I have a 2nd ProBook 6560b that I also had Win 10 on but tried Linux on it and never liked it. I accidentally hit the power button and the computer died instantly, somehow that caused the SSD to go dead.
I used the free upgrade to go to Win 10 and had no issues with DisplayPort audio after the upgrade. I use a DisplayPort >HDMI adapter cable to connect them. History: I have been using a ProBook 6560b for watching internet videos on the TV for several years. I have been using DisplayPort for some time with great audio and video from a ProBook 6560b. I do not have audio via the DisplayPort to a Samsung 4K TV.
