Folio 9470m
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I just bought a HP 9470m Ultrabook. 3 days ago, the hard mute button (next to wifi button) still works fine. However, I just updated BIOS today. After that, the button does not work at all. It does not mute. When I press it, it just shows the volume bar. It does not even increase or decrease the volume. Any one has the same issue and can suggest solution?

 

Thanks,

Hello @GBL84,

 

Thank you for your time. I just fixed it. I udpated the "unknown device" driver. Reset. Done. It's working now.

Hello @bluesky141,

 

 

Please try to load defaults after going to BIOS, Tap F10 at the boot.

 

Go to BIOS Page.

 

Under MAIN Tab, click Restore defaults > Save changes and exit.

 See if that helps.

 

If not reinstall drivers from the below link, restart after installing and check if that works.
