Hi, I've recently purchased a new Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD and I wanted to install Windows 10 Pro on it, because I already had my Windows on my HDD. So I format everything, installed Windows 10 Pro on the SSD and everything went fine, but audio was missing. So I went to Lenovo's official website for drivers and updates and tried to update my audio driver, didn't work. I tried the Windows Troubleshooter, it just recommended restarting my computer but again, it didn't solve the issue. So then I tried uninstalling my High Definition Audio Controller and then hitting the Scan For Hardware Changes button, hoping that it would fix the issue but I was unsuccessful with that too. The High Definition Audio Controller states:

Device Status:

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.

I tried everything I could think of and nothing worked so far, any tips on how to solve this issue? Thank you for your time.

My computer specs are:
Lenovo Legion Y530
Windows 10 Pro
Intel Core i7-8750H
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with 4 GB VRAM
8 GB RAM
1 TB Toshiba HDD
250 GB Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD
