I am trying to use zoom on my Windows 10 HP laptop, but the microphone and speaker drop off after just a short time. My speaker is a "Realtek". What settings should I be using? I have both the speaker and microphone set to work with the app.

Title of what? I don't see anything like a title with ^. Where would it be?

2020-10-24T20:10:43+00:00 Yes, I did that. That brings up the dialog shown in the included screenshot. The title of that dialog is ASUS RealTek HD Audio Manager. Is that the title you are referring to? It has no ^ at the end.
BTW, what computers were you "around" in 1952? My first computer usage was at UCLA in 1961, a Bendix G15. Also learned how to use a mechanical differential analyzer. After graduation in 1962 I went to Rocketdyne and worked a lot with the IBM 7090 and modern analog computer. Retired but still do lots of software development.
