No sound after installing Windows 10 on Boot Camp

I have a MacBook Pro 13' (Mid-2012) 2.9GHz with 750Gb and 8Gb RAM and I've installed Windows 10 in my Boot Camp partition. After installing Boot Camp tools (version 6) I could work with all the drivers installed, except for audio. I managed to re-install the audio drivers from RealTek website (updated), but the problem remains the same. Windows says "No audio output device is installed" and checking the Device Manager application I found the "High Definition Audio Controller" driver shows, as device status " This device cannot start. (Code 10) {Operation Failed} The requested operation was unsuccessful.".

Does anyone knows what can I do, in order to have sound on my mac (on Windows 10 partition)?

With best regards,

Rui

Your Mac has Cirrus drivers, not RealTek. I have the same Mac. Can you delete the device and Repair BC drivers?

I have a Macbook 8, 1 (Late 2011) I struggle getting the sound to work and I was successfully able to do so and installed Windows 10. This can be done with Windows 8 too. Forget about Bootcamp. After soooo many attempts I got it to work!. Super easy, you need to install windows with UEFI Support.

1. Partition your windows drive with DiskUtility

2. Insert your Windows DVD

3. Restart your Mac

4. Hold the Option button when booting

NOTE: You may see 3 options (Mac OS, Windows, and EFI Boot)

5. SELECT "Windows"

6. Install

7. Once Windows is installed, install the Bootcamp drivers

8. Enjoy the sound of your Mac

Also, you can create a USB flash drive to install Windows. Follow the link below for more info.

Hi. I have the same problem. Did you fix it?

I have fix. If you get an HDMI and plug it into a monitor or tv you will get sound. I know this is not the best solution, but its the only one for people that install from a USB.
