IDEA: Tool to easily disable/enable hardware device

<< < (2/2)

TucknDar:
this doesn't help, but it sounds like (?) a power hum (leaking from the PS?)

if it is then disabling the soundcard probably won't have any effect (the fact that muting has no effect would seem to support this...)

As I said, disabling the soundcard DOES have an effect, which is why I'd like to find a tool to help me out ;)

Are you remembering to run it from an elevated command prompt?

Also, have you tried disabling any sound-related mixing devices you don't use? Probably not related, but on a number of computers, I've had annoying background noise until I disabled stuff like Mic in and midi.

Yes, I ran it with elevated privileges. Devcon is able to find all hardware devices, but it wouldn't let me disable a device.

I'll try to see if disabling some mixing devices, thanks.

Thanks for your replies, all :)

aah, my bad (DOH!!)

PhilB66:
You should be able to do that with Device Remover

MilesAhead:
For the time being, this AutoIt3 script will pop up the Device Manager.
