No audio, 'No Audio Output Device Is Installed', have already updated BIOS and chipset and drivers, Windows 10

I am having this VERY same issue and have exhausted the VERY same measures as you did. I would love to hear a resolution but I don't guess there will be one given.

 

No audio, 'No Audio Output Device Is Installed', have already updated BIOS and chipset and drivers, Windows 10

Please, any more suggestions? I'm thinking that there is a way to fix this.

And when I updated the driver for 'High Definition Audio Codecs', Device Manager switched it to 'Realtek High Definition Audio', even though that was already listed under 'Sound, Video, and Game Controllers' (so now 'Realtek High Definition Audio' is listed
twice under r 'Sound, Video, and Game Controllers'.

Device Manager also allowed me to install 'Intel WiDi Audio Device', but it still makes no sound at all.

And under 'System Devices', my computer tells me that the driver for 'High Definition Audio Controller' is up to date, but it still has a yellow bang mark next to it (nothing I do seems to ever change that - any suggestsions?)

 

I had the same prob. After hours of research on the web I joined this forum but still no solutions. I waited for answers to your post but still nothing meanwhile I kept looking and I found this somewhere:
1. Select IDT High Definition Audio CODEC on Device Manager.
2. Select Driver tab.
3. Click Update Driver... button.
4. Select Browse my computer for driver software.
5. Select Let me pickup a list of device drivers on my computer.
6. Select High Definition Audio Device (Not IDT High Def... this is important.) and click Next.
Appears Warning message, but reply Yes.
7. Windows has successfully update your driver software.
It did solve my prob but I can't tell if it'll help you. Anyways I'm no expert I'm just trying to help cause this prob made me really frustrated.

 

I really appreciate you post, it worked perfectly for me!

 

The "High Definiton Audio" Driver is only the generic, basic function, Windows installed sound driver. It is not the full feature driver of the sound hardware in the PC.

As you have a Dell Inspiron 14Z, Dell has not certified this for Win 10 The only drivers I find on the Dell downloads for the 14Z (there are several different 14Z models) is for XP/Vista/Win 7 and they are not compatible with Win 10. You can try installing the Win 7 drivers in a Win 7 compatibility mode but no guarantee it will work. If the Realtek will not install in a compatibility mode, the generic High Definition Audio is the best you can do. There are no drivers for your specific hardware on the Realtek site either (the 14Z uses Realtek).

Here is the Dell downloads for the 14Z 1470. If yours is different select the correct 14Z model.
