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 chose the troubleshoot option is one of the an option before I do what you said. Plus I don’t think I’ve been getting the spinning dots. But I will pay more attention this time once the repair starts reloading. I’ve gotten so many blue screens I can’t remember now.

    See if you have the point of restoration, if you don't have you will need to repair the computer with a reset this pc option.

    I selected a date from 11/24/2024. My computer is back up no sound. about to check DM and Settings

    No Input or Output Device Found in settings

    Just the Bluetooth devices in DM

    I still have the Realtek in the DM/action/add leg. hardware/sound/realtek then there are plenty to choose from. however when we got this far last time that when we ran into the your device has ran into a problem blue page

    The last solution I know of is HP audio check, a software from the manufacturer to check for sound issues;

    See if the problem persists after using it.
