"Version 7.0? That's quite old. Perhaps there's a more recent version that might address the issue you're experiencing?"

"No worries, I can walk you through the steps. You can follow these instructions: Right-click on 'Start' and select 'Device Manager'. In the Device Manager, expand the 'Sound, video and game controllers' section and right-click on your audio device. Select 'Update Driver Software' and then 'Search automatically for updated driver software.' Let me know if that fixes the issue."

"That's no problem. You just need to run the Device Manager as an administrator. Here's how you do it: Right-click on the 'Start' button and select 'Computer'. Hold down the 'Shift' key while clicking on 'Properties'. Click on the 'Compatibility' tab and then 'Run as an administrator'. Now, try updating the audio driver again."

WHY IS THIS SO HARD
Realtek
AI roleplay episode
"I understand that this process may seem complicated, but it's actually quite straightforward. If you're not comfortable with these steps, you could consider asking a friend for help or speaking with a computer technician."
Stranger
NO

"Alright, let's try something else. Is the audio driver not working only in one specific application or in all applications?"
Stranger
ALL APPS
Realtek
AI roleplay episode
"That's a bit strange. It would be normal if only one particular app was having issues, but for it to affect all apps means the problem runs deeper. This could be due to a conflict with another piece of software or a settings issue. Let's try resetting all the Windows settings to their default values."
Stranger
WHAT

"Don't worry, I'll guide you through the process. To reset Windows settings to their default values, go to Settings you can search for it in the Start menu, then navigate to Update & Security > Recovery. Click on the 'Get started' button under the 'Reset this PC' heading. Follow the prompts to complete the reset process."
Stranger
OK DONE

"Excellent! Now, let's see if that resolves the issue. Try checking if the audio works now. If it doesn't, we may need to troubleshoot further or seek additional assistance."
Stranger
HELPP

"Don't worry, we'll figure this out together. Since resetting Windows didn't resolve the issue, it's possible that there's something wrong with your audio hardware. Let's try using a different audio device to see if the problem is specific to your current setup. You can plug in headphones or speakers to see if they work."
Stranger
AHAH
Realtek
AI roleplay episode
"That's a great idea! Let's try using headphones to see if the audio issue persists. If the problem goes away, then we know it's specific to your current audio device. But if the problem remains, we'll need to dig deeper."
Stranger
HEADPHONES WORKS
Realtek
AI roleplay episode
"So the problem only occurs when using the speakers? That narrows it down. We can try updating the audio drivers for the headphones or speakers to see if that resolves the issue. You can also try using a different audio device to rule out any potential issues with your current one."
Stranger
no effect

"Hmm, this seems like a peculiar issue. If none of the troubleshooting steps we've tried so far have resolved the problem, it's likely that there's an underlying hardware or software issue that we haven't accounted for yet. In that case, we may need to consider seeking further assistance from Microsoft Support or visiting a computer repair shop."
