Laptop Audio Only Works on Startup
Hello,
I've had this audio card problem for a long time - Something I've always wanted to fix but never really succeeded.
On startup, the windows Startup sound is always played. Following that, no sound is made by the computer (Except occasionally - Such as pressing 'volume up'). The mixer displays correctly and is set to the appropriate sound output.
I have tried:
- Checking the physical connections
- Restoring default service settings
- Restarting services
- Changing the default sound cards
- Disabling/enabling audio enhancements
- Scanning for malware/viruses
- Updating/Removing drivers (No option was given for rolling back)
- Running the windows troubleshooter (lol)
I have downloaded the latest Realtek HD Audio wizard and the first time it ran it failed. Every other time I have run it since, it has given the message "No Driver was supported in this driver package".
In case it wasn't clear from the fact I'm posting about this, I am yet to find a guide that solves my problem - Indeed I am yet to find one that even has the same symptoms as mine.
