UAD drivers are mostly designed for more recent laptops/motherboards, especially those made in late 2017 and newer Realtek UAD drivers are also 'hardware ID' or OEM specific and may not support your X555LA laptop. Its very stubbornly telling me there is no Audio present in the machine when I know there is because I heard it three times.īad idea to use Realtek UAD drivers on the Asus X555LA laptop, Vimy. It only changes in the device manager when I try to uninstall, update or disable drivers, it's not intermittingly changing it's own state. I just remember trying to save the system in it's 'working' state, but I may have failed to that properly because the system couldn't open the 'restore' file afterwards I did give him a long list of what I did but almost everything I tried has been covered here in the old thread and now in this one You think I like to write 'long' passages.Heck No! It would have took me 3 or 4 times as long if I had to write everything down as I did it. I know I am quiet ignorant about what's actually going on inside the PC, but I told you my friend has his PC 'back' in the same condition he gave it to me Something is being 'remembered' somewhere in the PC because its reoccurring on fresh installs. I believe my friend didn't do anything to cause this. My thinking here was that a registry quickly updates itself building in new data and in this case reallocating the 'error'! If sometimes the laptop has no audio device in the device manager, sometimes it has yellow exclamation mark, sometimes completely ok (and thus computer has sound) - it is probably a hardware issue. Have you check the bios if onboard audio is enabled in the bios?ĭo you get different results from laptop complete shutdown instead of restart? Do you get different results from laptop closing the lid thus going to sleep and then waking up? So you have a laptop with the latest bios.

That times 10 because you literally didn't say anything until I asked a series of specific questions. Reinstalled Windows 7, sound didn't work until I tinkered a few settings - BUT you don't tell us what settings tinkered. It's just frustrating because you don't list what exactly you did. And the old thread from 2017 had zero mention of registry issues - but you are so sure that it is a registry issue. The registry has no problems, you don't know what you are doing and you are going to mess with the registry causing more problems for your friend. The reason why I tell you to give the laptop back to your friend is precisely this issue. The registry is not corrupt if it's built from scratch literally 5 minutes ago. So why do you keep on saying it's a registry issue. The laptop's registry would start off as blank and built from the OS installation. So you wiped the drive and reinstalled - then there is no prior corrupted registry messing your new installation.
