So what do people with computers with Conexant drivers do? Windows Update says update drivers but there are none acceptable, it also says Microsoft is working on a fix ? So what do we do? If there are compatible drivers for devices using Conexant Audio where are they, how do we get them and install or replace them (I have tried everything to no avail). When does MS expect a fix ? Are persons with Conexant audio drivers computers at end of life ? Does anybody care ?

    Aggiornamento a W10 20H2 riuscito con driver Conexant SmartAudio HD indicato non compatibile

    Recentemente è stato tolto il blocco all'installazione dell'aggiornamento alla versione 20H2, dalla versione 1909, anche se il problema di incompatibilità noto di alcuni driver audio Conexant non è stato ancora ufficialmente risolto. Ciononstante si è avviato sul mio laptop Asus con Windows Update l'aggiornamento automatico delle funzionalità a Windows 10, versione 20H2. Esso però in fase di preinstallazione si ferma al 61%, nonostante i diversi tentativi fatti, generando anche il codice di errore generico 0xc19001e1. Ciò è dovuto alla incompatibilità nota dei driver Conexant SmartAudio HD installati sul mio laptop. Seguendo il suggerimento di un utente su un forum di discussione che aveva lo stesso mio problema e lo ha risolto, ho proceduto come segue: andare in Pannello di controllo-Gestione dispositivi-Controller Audio, video e giochi-Conexant SmartAudio HD-Aggiorna driver-Cerca i driver nel computer-Scegli da un elenco di driver disponibili nel computer-Selezionare il Dispositivo High Definition Audio (driver generico) al posto del driver Conexant e proseguire con l'ìnstallazione, ignorando il messaggio di attenzione driver non specifico. Riavvio del sistema e proseguimento con l'istallazione automatica di WU dell'aggiornamento alla versione 20H2, che questa volta è andata a buon fine. Al termine dell'installazione (la procedura è stata lenta), non c'è stato alcun problema di audio o crasch del Sistema e i driver Conexant, reinstallati automaticamente, hanno funzionato perfettamente. Nel mio caso ho risolto, anche perchè l'aggiornamento avviato e incompleto alla versione 20H2, bloccava ogni altro aggiornamento di WU, anche quelli di sicurezza antivirus. Finalmente dopo quasi un anno di attesa ho potuto avere la versione aggiornata di W10 sul mio portatile Asus K550J di appena tre anni.

    Has anyone tried to update the Conexant driver to version 8.66.95.70 by downloading direct from the Microsoft Update catalogue and then installing? If so, did that then produce a WU prompt to 2004 or 20H2? What happened thereafter?

    If I understand previous postings correctly, some people who have now received the latest Feature via WU have also been served this version of driver with it.

    Having installed 20H2 using the method I have described in detail earlier, I am still running with the Conexant ISST file version below the lower problematic version 7.231.3.0, but the corresponding file in the driver .cab is I mention above is 7.231.4.0. The signing of this file is 7 September 2020 by Synaptics and 5 January 2021 by Microsoft.

    I have the Asus GL552VW. I received the 20H2 update from 1909 yesterday. WU pushed a Conextant SmartAudio HD driver update on 9th April 2021, I installed that, then on 10th April 2021, I received the 20H2 Update.

    Another point to note wrt Conexant Audio drivers - if your drive has an older driver package related to Conexant in the Windows directory, your update may either fail at 61 percent or not offered to you. The files for Conexant Audio start with UCI64*.dll.
