  1. No audio after latest windows updates


    I have a Dell Inspiron 3668 computer and have the latest bios and Realtek audio driver from Dell, but audio stopped working after last Windows update. The troubleshooter is no help--it thinks there isn't a problem. After trying to send a tone and replying I didn't hear it, it just reinstalls the driver. The speaker cable is plugged in and all settings are as they are supposed to be. Can anybody help?

    :)

  2. lost Audio after latest windows 10 update

    Hi Louis,

    Your audio may not be working after the latest update if you have outdated audio drivers. Have you tried updating them? You may check your driver manufacturer's website for the latest drivers for it.

    You may run the Playing Audio Troubleshooter to find and repair problems with playing sound.

    • Right-click the Start icon, then select Control Panel.
    • Choose the Large icons option from the View by drop-down list found on the upper-right part of the Control Panel window.
    • Locate then select Troubleshooting.
    • Click View all from the left pane.
    • Locate and click Playing Audio to run the troubleshooter then follow the next steps.

    We'll be waiting for your response.

    Regards.
