[Notebook] Troubleshooting - No Sound After Installing Audio Drivers
Applicable Models: X415JA/JP, X515JA/JP, X712JA, E210MAB
If you downloaded audio drivers from the ASUS official website and encountered no sound issues after installation, it might be due to installing audio drivers that are not compatible with your computer.
For models X415JA/JP, X515JA/JP, X712JA, E210MAB, there are two supported audio driver vendors. You need to confirm the hardware identifier through Device Manager and download the corresponding audio driver.
- Type and search [Device Manager] in the Windows search bar①, and then click [Open]②. (Left image for Windows 11 search screen; right image for Windows 10 search screen)
