No Audio Output is Installed in ASUS X555LA laptop after reinstalls
Hi, I am trying to help a friend who's laptop's audio stopped working after a simple lid close. the symptoms are almost the same as posted in this thread years ago- No Audio Output Device Installed.
I'm deeply worried for him after reading the thread.
things I tried over the last few days are...
1. All the usual downloading ,reinstalling etc as per above thread.
2.Restore, Reset
3 Installed 1809 version
4 Reformatted and changed partitioning to MBR - Sound came back even after 1st reboot but alas reverted to "No Sound" the next day
5 Reformatted again, this time not getting any updates - "no sound"
6 Cleaned Registry - sound came back so I done a System Backup ( wasn't able to return the Backup) anyway Sound fail again on 1st reboot
7 Installed an old version of Win 7 to see if that worked - Sound didn't work till I tinkered with a few things -when working here I noticed that it was the generic or MS sound that was working (no Realtek).
8 After this I figured I might as well persevere with Win 10 but after much more Reformatting (finally opting to change back from MBR Partitioning) I still can't get the sound back.
Now I'm nearly giving up but have updated Win 10 hoping a fix would be in the update alas 'No"
I have downloaded some UAD Realtek Drivers which I am about to load.
Sorry for the long post, I am not PC Savy but just s'one with a little more experience than my friend , If anyone has any good ideas I'd love to try them!
Anyway Regards Everyone!
