I’m trying to swap my Conexant audio drivers for the standard Windows HD Audio driver. I don’t want Realtek or any third-party solutions, and I’ve managed to use Device Manager before, but now it doesn’t show up unless I enable the compatible devices option. On my Lenovo Ideapad 310 (Windows 10 22H2), can I find these drivers elsewhere?

Get the audio drivers from your USB device using your computer, then place your device down. Avoid trying to update again next time. The audio quality hasn't changed in years—no need for an update. For items under a year, opt for the MFG warranty.

Thank you for your message. To find the Windows drivers, you can check the manufacturer's website or your laptop's manufacturer support section. For installation instructions, look for the driver downloads or follow the on-screen prompts provided by the software developer.

Consider external audio sources. Adding a Dolby Atmos device can enhance the experience.

I discovered the fix by deleting the Conexant Driver via DriverStoreExplorer, but Windows automatically replaced it with the HD Audio Drivers. It doesn’t show up in the Device Manager anymore, so I won’t attempt an update.
