    High Definition Audio Controller cannot start.


    Hello!

    I've banged my head into the wall for the past hours and gotten nowhere on this. Here's the device status:
    This device cannot start. (Code 10)

    {Operation Failed}
    The requested operation was unsuccessful.

    Here is the Information box in the Events tab showing the details of the configuration event:

    Device PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A348&SUBSYS_87231043&REV_10\3&11583659&0&FB was configured.

    Driver Name: hdaudbus.inf
    Class Guid: {4d36e97d-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
    Driver Date: 02/20/2020
    Driver Version: 10.0.18362.693
    Driver Provider: Microsoft
    Driver Section: HDAudio_Device.NT
    Driver Rank: 0xFF2006
    Matching Device Id: PCI\CC_0403
    Outranked Drivers:
    Device Updated: false
    Parent Device: ACPI\PNP0A08\0


    And here is the details from the "device not started"-event:

    Device PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A348&SUBSYS_87231043&REV_10\3&11583659&0&FB had a problem starting.

    Driver Name: hdaudbus.inf
    Class Guid: {4d36e97d-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
    Service: HDAudBus
    Lower Filters:
    Upper Filters:
    Problem: 0xA
    Problem Status: 0xC0000001


    I can't use the troubleshooter because the device isn't listed since it can't even start.
    I've tried re-installing the device and drivers to no avail.

    Windows version is 1909, Build 18363.1316. (Can't update cause it wants me to uninstall Virtualbox, which I can't even find in the first place)

    :)

    High Definition Audio Controller Broken

    Hi, according to my device manager the high definition audio controller is not working, and as a result my audio is currently not working. In trying to fix this issue, I've attempted the various suggestions offered within the other threads regarding this
    specific issue, yet nothing appears to be working. Even reinstalling the driver just appears to reinstall the same corrupt driver. Wondering if there are any possible solutions.

    On top of this, my computer has been experiencing freezing as of recent; would this driver issue be causing this?

    Thanks.
