How do I get my Realtek Audio Driver back on my HP laptop? It has completely disappeared. It is no longer in the Device Driver to add back or update. Ive tried to find the device driver by going to to device manager there is no audio to choose from and when I go down to the sound it only shows Bluetooth devices that are not in use anymore.

Thank you

    I have a DELL laptop and I have no sound at all.

    If the installation does not start, use the install.cmd or installdrv.cmd file

    If you still have Norton installed, temporarily uninstall it.

    Download this audio driver again.

    https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp149001-149500/...

    It will create a folder "C:\SWSetup\SP149476"

    Run HPUP.exe and continue with the installation.
