Hello!

I scoured the forums a bit before deciding to post this message. Some time ago, possibly due to a virus, my computer lost access to the Internet (no application could connect, despite sending/receiving packets to/from the router). So, I decided to take the strong approach and completely reset my computer.

Since then, the sound doesn't work anymore. More specifically, when I go to the Device Manager to update the drivers, I get this message:

On top of having a nice little icon saying "Sound not working" in the taskbar.

Not being discouraged, I decided to scour the forums and came across various solutions:
Install a driver from the manufacturer's site http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/
Install from HP's site (the brand of my computer): nothing for Win10 and my model.
Not to mention the various drivers proposed here and there by forums, and the tip to restart the Windows Audio service.

So, I'm relying on your wisdom and knowledge, attaching a Speccy report http://speccy.piriform.com/results/kvGCbrsUVD6MJZaZhCKKjOP

Thank you and have a good day,
Idra

    Right-click on the driver --> sp63932.exe
    Choose --> extract all

    Go to the device manager
    Right-click on the device in question
    Update driver
    Search for a driver on my computer
    Browse
    Go to the folder of the unzipped driver --> sp63932
    Folder --> src
    Select the folder --> wdm
    OK, next
    Restart
