Hello,

 

About a month ago I've encountered a very strange problem with my laptop. The microphone stops recording any sound whenever I put the laptop to sleep and wake it up. It won't work for an extended period of time, and sometimes it'll just suddenly start working again. The sound driver is installed correctly. I've reinstalled Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 10 on this laptop and all three operating systems exhibit the same problem, so it doesn't appear to be a compatibility problem. Even weirder is the fact that the microphone itself clearly works because it works occasionally. Is there a way to fix this?
