Intel HIgh Definition Audio Device issue

[RikDatta]

In Device Manager, I can see that the 'Intel High Definition Audio' device has an exclamation mark on it.

And Windows Defender keeps warning me that there's an issue to be fixed.

I've tried all sorts of things - running trouble shooter, asking the device to update driver, etc...

I've even used the HP Support Assistant to see if I can fix this issue.

Does anyone know how I can fix this problem, please?

Thanking you in advance.

Rik.

Hi:

See if reinstalling the W10 Intel graphics driver from your specific model notebook's support page resolves the problem.

Try manually installing the driver if the auto install method doesn't work.

The Intel HD audio driver is included in the graphics driver file because that controls the sound out of the HDMI port.

Well, I tried everything that I could think of before posting here.

And... there's no way I would have guessed that the Graphics Driver would solve the Audio driver issue.

Thanks a lot, Paul

Kind regards.
