IDT High Definition Audio Codec won't update. When I go to the device manager it has a yellow exclamation mark, but when I try to update it, it keeps saying "Windows encountered a problem" and "A device attached to the system is not functioning".

Hi:

 

See if installing this driver and restarting the PC, resolves the problem...

It still has the exclamation.

Sorry the W10 IDT driver didn't work for your model PC.

 

Unfortunately I don't have any other suggestions for you to try.

 

You may want to purchase a cheap PCIe x1 audio card that has support for W10.

 

The specs for your PC indicates that hit has 3 PCIe x1 slots.

 

One of them should be available to install an audio card.
