Victus by HP Gaming Laptop 15-fa0000 (680A2AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

Hello -

 

I own a Victus Laptop 15-fa0000, and noticed that 1 day I was NOT getting audio from either the speaker, headset or external audio, though the Device Manager says the devices are Enabled.  What I NO longer saw in Device Manager was "Audio Inputs and Outputs".  I have un-installed every audio driver and re-installed them and nothing.  I tried DISM and nothing.  I tried WIN 11 Troubleshooter and nothing.  I tried the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics Windows - says everything is enabled, though when I clicked to play audio - nothing.  I also tried HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI and when I checked audio, I HEARD beeps.  Once I got out of UEFI, still NO "Audio Inputs and Outputs".

I have looked high and low on this site AND YouTube AND the Internet ---- Anything I saw I already tried.  The only thing I have not tried was a clean install of WIN 11.

Has this happened to anyone else?!?!?????  I bought this laptop a year ago (I still have a warranty).  I do not want to send it back unless I run out of options.

Thank You!
