Hi @ENGFAISAL,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Here's how you can address this issue.
Uninstall and Reinstall the Conexant HD Audio Driver:
Uninstall the Current Driver:
- Right-click on the Start button and select "Device Manager."
- Expand the "Sound, video, and game controllers" section.
- Right-click on "Conexant HD Audio" and choose "Uninstall device."
- If prompted, check the box to delete the driver software for this device.
- Restart your computer.
Reinstall the Driver:
- Visit the HP Support page.
- Enter your laptop's model number in the search bar.
- Select "Drivers & Software."
- Choose Windows 11 as your operating system.
- Scroll down to the "Driver-Audio" section and download the latest Conexant audio driver available.
- Install the downloaded driver and restart your computer.
Use Windows Troubleshooter:
Windows has a built-in troubleshooter that can sometimes resolve audio issues:
- Go to Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters.
- Find "Playing Audio" and click "Run."
- Follow the on-screen instructions to identify and fix problems.
Check for Windows Updates:
Ensure your system is up-to-date, as updates can contain fixes for hardware compatibility issues:
- Go to Settings > Windows Update.
- Click "Check for updates."
- Install any available updates and restart your computer.
Use an Older Compatible Conexant Driver:
If the latest driver doesn't resolve the issue, consider installing an older version:
- In Device Manager, right-click on "Conexant HD Audio" and select "Properties."
- Go to the "Driver" tab and click "Roll Back Driver" if available.
- If the option isn't available, you can download an older driver version from the HP Support page by selecting a previous version from the list.
- Install the older driver and restart your computer.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
