Problem description: Yesterday, on my 8470p Elitebook, I downloaded an update. After said update, the sound won't work and my wallpaper went black. No sound after an update has happened in the past, but I was able to find a fix online. Not so now. After the attempted fixes, it became bad enough that the message, "No speakers or headphones are plugged in". In the past, I didn't need either. There aren't even any input or output devices. Attempted fixes: Deleting the sound drive from the Device Manager Downloading a sound drive Disabling the sound drive from the Device Manager Deleting said sound drive, multiple times Tried switching the sound settings to my Laptop, but I couldn't find how even with following instructions Updating my sound driver, multiple times When asking on Reddit, someone suggested deleting the update, so I deleted all of the ones from yesterday. Still nothing. Recent changes: When I first started having problems, I deleted the sound drive that wasn't the basic one. -- Operating system: Windows 10, 64 Bit System specs: Elitebook 8470p, Intel (R) Core i5-3320M CPU Processor Location: United States I have Googled and read the FAQ: Yes The man called M fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Sep 7, 2020 |

I use this Github script to reset everything Windows Audio in cases like this. https://gist.github.com/tigerhawkvok/b27b0cbaca2deda1ae33 This might work for you, but you may need to find another driver for that DAC. It would help to know which DAC it is; maybe HWInfo can tell you.
