Mecer Z140c sound drivers

[duelkage]

Hi Guys need some help …. Have a Mecer laptop after the windows was updated there isn’t any sound drivers …. Drivers from the official website don’t work … many years ago I found a driver that works but I can’t remember from which site I got it … does anyone know if there is an alternative driver for this particular model

Have you tried going to device manager and uninstalling the current driver? Right click, uninstall, mark delete driver. Restart?

If it dosen't work, maybe try the driver for Z140C-edu:

The driver folder for that one is rather funny, but different from Z140C, this is the folder you are looking for. Run the exe inside:

Not endorsing them by any means, but if you have a Realtek chip (which it looks like you do). You could try these generic Realtek drivers from Github: Releases · pal1000/Realtek-UAD-generic (github.com)

I would scan anything you download there thoroughly with AV software etc.

I tried this and nothing …. It’s not even letting me run the exe …. Think it has a issue other than the missing driver… really appreciate your response

I have tried this as well now but to no luck…. Thank you for your reply

What Windows update/upgrade did you do? How old is the laptop?
I'm asking because I'm wondering if the laptop is so old no 64-bit drivers were written for it, and you upgraded to a 64-bit version of Windows.
Would be a very niche situation, so I doubt this is it, but if it was, I'd hate to be troubleshooting it only to discover that haha.
