If you're experiencing a lack of audio on your HP Laptop, try these steps: First, ensure that the audio is turned up, both internally on the laptop and any external speakers. If that doesn't work, try connecting external speakers to see if the issue persists. If the problem continues, consider reloading the audio drivers. As a last resort, the audio board and speaker connections inside the computer might need to be replaced.
