I've compared the contents from the above link with the contents in my own Device Manager directory which are virtually identical with a small number of contents not on yours that are on mine and vice versa.
In the ION "LP2 Flash" record player manual it states "The LP2FLASH does not support USB hubs".
Is this why I'm getting no sound?
However, it's very strange it says the LP2Flash does Not support USB hubs, given that it's a USB lead that connects the record player to my computer.
I've not seen "Name not available" show up since, so I don't know what that is or why it appears then disappears.
1. Since you say the turntable spins
> I assume you have the turntable plugged in with its own AC cord? -
I think so
> I assume the turntable is turned on? -
Yes
What does the AC cord look like?
2. Is the turntable's USB cable plugged directly into a USB port on the computer? (or are you also using any external USB hubs?) -
The USB cable is plugged directly into a USB port at the back of my computer tower with other USB and jack sockets
When you say “are you also using any external USB hubs”, what are these?
3. Open Device Manager. (Rt click
Computer->Manage->Device Manager). With AC connected and turntable powered on, plug into the USB port and unplug it
> Do you hear the Windows device connect/disconnect sounds as plug/unplug the USB cable? -
Yes. It sounded 4 times when plugging the cable in then twice when unplugging the cable (both times with the record player switched on)
> In Device Manager, do you see any new device appear or disappear under either the Sound or Universal Serial Bus Controller categories? –
The extra devices are identical in name and number to before I installed the Realtek HD Audio Manager, as follows:
“Human Interface Devices” - 1 HID-compliant consumer control device; 1 USB Human Interface Device
“Sound, Video and Game Controllers” - 1 High Definition Audio Device; 1 USB Audio CODEC
“Universal Serial Bus Controllers” - 1 USB Compositive Device
NB: Unplugged – 8th USB Root Hub is highlighted blue; Plugged – 1st USB Composite Device is highlighted blue
Two new sections have appeared since installing the Realtek HD Audio Manager:

USB Lead is connected between the record player and the computer, and the record player lead is plugged into a plug socket, but still no sound

Should I change the setting from the above to “Windows Default (modified)”?
