After windows 10 update the sound disappeared and fan is on constantly when I have the computer on. Regarding sound it says  No speakers or headphones are plugged in. Same happened over 6 months ago. I couldnt solve it so I went back in time before update and fan stopped and sound was working, Im no computer wizzard and dont have a clue really. I do know its the update that caused these problems, I dont want to go back in time cause Im thinking there are other security issues with not updating. What do I do?

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I have gone through your Post and would like to help

 

I suggest you download and run the HP Support Assistant from this Link: https://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/hpsupport.html?jumpid=va_r602_us/en/any/psg/p...

 

HPSA will automatically search for all the latest drivers for your Notebook

 

  1. Click My devices in the top menu, and then click Updates in the My PC or My notebook pane.

    Click Updates in the My notebook pane

  2. Click Check for updates and messages to scan for new updates.

     Updates list in HP Support Center

  3. Review the list of updates. Updates with a yellow information icon are recommended. Updates with a blue information icon are optional.

  4. Click the update name for a description, version number, and file size.

  5. Select the box next to any updates you want to install, and then click Download and install.

Also ensure Windows is up to date.

 

Select the Start  button, and then go to Settings  > Update & security  > Windows Update , and select Check for updates. If Windows Update says your device is up to date, you have all the updates that are currently available

 

Keep me posted how it goes

 

Thank you and have a wonderful day 😊

Hi KrazyToad. Ive tried your suggestion but it did not work. Fan is still on full blast and the sound is gone, No speakers or headphones are plugged in is what it says. I had the latest window update already.

No it still doesnt work. What I can see is that it looks like there are no sound devices on the computer. Im pasting 2 pics of what comes up. Iv tried getting rid and install AMD again, updating driver doesnt work either.

At this point I suggest you perform a Reset and let me know if that helps

Hi I decided not to perform the reset instead I installed realtek audio and now I have sound. Yaaaaaay but the fan is still running all the time. Even when Im not using the computer. I doubt very much its due to dirt and CPU is not high. It started straight away when windows 10 was updated so Im convinced its due to the update 1903. Any suggestions and please not reset :)?
