Windows Audio Crashes

My audio stops working when ever a mic is turned on.

On login, audio output works normally, however, when ever any mic is used, both audio input and output crash and a red x shows up on the taskbar audio icon.

It seems the Windows Audio service is what crashes.

After the first crash, the audio does not come back no matter what I do until I restart my pc.

I can replicate this with the following steps:

1. Login to pc
   • audio output working fine
2. Open sound settings, opens to playback tab
   • audio still fine and also able to play test sounds
3. Click on Recording Tab
   • The sound feedback indicator on the right side is missing
   • The window freezes, error window appears about DLL crash
   • If there is no connected or enabled recording device, nothing happens everything else seem to run normally
4. Proceed to follow various trouble shooting steps
   • Some troubleshooting steps seems to get rid of the red x on the taskbar volume icon
   • The recording tab in the sound settings is also now accessible
   • However things may seem fine at first, audio input/output is still not working and playing a test sound fails.

Solutions I've Tried:

• DISM (ended with no errors)
• sfc /scannow (found corrupted files, required restart)
• Restarting Windows Audio Service (results in err 1061, service then gets stuck on stopping)
• Disabling and re-enabling audio drivers
• Reinstalling audio drivers from manufacturers site
• Using windows generic audio drivers
• Restarting my PC

As you can see, I've spent a lot of time trying to fix this issue and it is starting to get really frustrating.

 

Need Part: Identify and Replace Audio Jack

Thank you.

Mouser.com does not have part. Thank you for the site advice.

DigiKey.com does not have part. Sent photos to Seth.

USB add in card won't work with Laptop Mobo.

The problem I'm having is the 3 solder points at the rear of the sound jack. I can't locate a part in this style. I would like a direct replacement. I can't find a dead motherboard on ebay.com at a cost effective price point. New boards are not cost effective.

I need some more help or suggestions on locating part.

 

Replacing audio with movie maker

It is fast but to first extract all audio (wherein I want to replace a part) and then make changes with Audacity and then again incorporate it in the video are many steps involved. Is there any easy standalone software, as I don not want to touch all the audio because I know I will certainly make a mess.
