Can I get some help with Windows 10 sound problems?

[Windows Central Question]

Windows 10 Sound Problems.

I just installed Windows 10, and for the past two hours I've been trying to get my sound to play. No matter what program/web page I'm on the sound won't come through my speakers. The PC registers it, as I can see from the sound mixer, but the speakers make no sound. Everything worked fine on Windows 8.1.

I've reinstalled all drivers for my sound system, and rebooted about 5 times, but nothing changes.

Soundcard: Creative SB X-Fi
Speakers: Logitech X-540 5.1 Speaker System

"I had a same problem on HP Envy 23 1080jp All in one desktop PC.

I can solved as following.
1. Select IDT High Definition Audio CODEC on Device Manager.
2. Select Driver tab.
3. Click Update Driver... button.
4. Select -> Browse my computer for driver software.
5. Select -> Let me pickup a list of device drivers on my computer.
6. Select High Definition Audio Device (Not IDT High Def... this is important.) and click Next.
Appears Warning message, but reply Yes.
7. ! Windows has successfully update your driver software.

Key is step 6.

Thanks" by 3Juan

I too have a Creative SB X-fi sound card - and by coincidence Logitech 540 speakers. With no sound in Windows 10.
I can confirm that the solution above works and would like to thank Jamon2.

God bless you man for your tips! Finally someone fix it (partial) but it worked! One mention though.I don't have IDT High Definition Audio CODEC on Device Manager,probably because I've disable it from bios.But i have selected Creative speakers at position 1 and now I have sound on my creative xtreme music card.I can't use the soundcard enhancements yet but its a very big step forward! I wish you all the bests!!!
KING REGARDS!
