Samsung H61s1 Sound Driver -

Because Samsung laptops use specific hardware configurations, downloading a "generic" driver often results in low volume or missing microphone inputs. Here is the comprehensive guide to finding and installing the correct sound driver.

• You need the Intel Graphics Driver (which includes the HDMI Audio driver). The Realtek sound driver only controls the 3.5mm jack and speakers.
• Download the latest Intel HD Graphics driver for Sandy/Ivy Bridge CPUs from Intel's archive.

1. Open Device Manager: Press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager from the menu.
2. Locate the Sound Device: In the Device Manager, expand the Sound, video and game controllers section.
3. Right-Click on the Sound Device: Right-click on the sound device (e.g., "Realtek Audio") and select Update driver.
4. Search for Updates: Click on Search automatically for updated driver software and follow the on-screen instructions.
