I just Installed windows 10 this morning everything runs fine expect for the sound, where is it?

I have tried troubleshooting the problem its says it has fixed it but the little red cross is still is cuddling into the speaker icon. I have tried everything uninstalling and installing the sound again.....does nothing. I even disabled and enabled it......does nothing. I must tell you I am not computer literate and would love for someone to just give me simple instructions and a step by step guide on how to actually fix this problem.

IDT - Audio Device - IDT High Definition Audio CODEC - Error 0x8007001f <<<<<<<<< this is the error that keeps appearing. 

Help me Obi windows Kenobi you're my only hope :)

    When you click on the device manager, the "sounds, video and game controllers" section isn't listed because there are no audio devices installed. The only sound driver is called "High Definition Audio Controller" and it is under the category of "system Devices". It also has a yellow triangle with an exclamation point next to it to state that it is indeed not working. if you go into it's properties, the Device status states:

    "This device cannot start. (Code 10)

    {Operation Failed}

    The requested operation was unsuccessful."

    Personally mine shows up at the moment because it is recognizing my webcam. But before I plugged that in, the category wasn't there. I am assuming it might be the same with JpNoro.

    Edit: oh yeah, and the hardware ID's for, at least, mine are

    PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C20&SUBSYS_1AA31043&REV_05

    PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C20&SUBSYS_1AA31043

    PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C20&CC_040300

    PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C20&CC_0403

    Not sure if they would be the same for JpNoro, but there you go.

    Those are HDMI audio ID's, and it's not harmful that they come up "Code 10" if you don't have an HDMI screen connected to the computer.

    So if you expand "Sound, video and game controllers" (two up from "System Devices") there's nothing listed? There should be a Realtek entry there, and it'll have "VEN_10EC" somewhere in the hardware ID.

    Am having same problem, but am not overly computer savvy.  How do I "reset my computer"?  especially if that will help solve the problem?  Everything was fine until Windows 10 was installed the other day.
