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

Robyn F

    Here ya go, also nothing. Only shows the Bluetooth headsets again.

    I'm sorry, I should have told you that I had checked all of the places when I restarted my computer.

    Press Windows key + R and type mmsys.cpl

    Do any sound devices appear?
