Windows 10: After Updating Drivers for Windows 10, my Built In speakers are not detected.

Hi, I recently updated my drivers for my HP ProBook using a driver updater app, however after I finished updating the drivers, after rebooting many times, there is an red cross next to the volume icon and if I click on it it will start the audio troubleshooter. The troubleshooter does not work and it says it cannot detect the issue. I have installed the Realtek audio driver from the HP website however it does nothing, and if I try to add legacy device through Device Manager, it bluescreens me. I really need this fixed so please reply if possible. If I hover over the volume icon on the taskbar,

:)

Windows 11 not detecting built-in speakers in Acer/Predator Laptop

Hi guys, I recently installed Windows 11 on my Predator (Acer) Laptop, and I have one problem. The built-in speakers don't show up on the sound output list. On Windows 10 I had no issues with those speakers but now on Windows 11, I don't see the built-in speakers. If someone has/had this problem please let me know how do you fix it without going back to Windows 10.

 

Windows 7 x64 not detecting GTX295

Background
I installed the 295 and it was not detected. So I downloaded 181.22 for Vista x64, but those drivers didn't work for gaming (CTD). So I installed a GTX 8800 and it was detected and drivers installed automatically from Windows Update.

Now I put the 295 back in, and it installed and was able to run games. However, the nVidia control panel was not available, suggesting that the drivers hadn't installed properly... So I deleted the drivers and rebooted. And... again it lists my 295 as a "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and a "3D Video Controler", but no drivers can be found by Windows Update.

Question
1) Is there anywhere I can download the Windows 7 x64 drivers and install them manually?

2) Any idea how I can get Windows 7 to recognize my GTX295 so that it can download the proper drivers.

3) Have you had the GTX295 install automatically in Windows 7 x64?
