No sound on 27 inch iMac Mid 2011 running Windows 8.1 on Botcamp

Hello! I just installed 8.1 on my Mac and everything went very well. Then only issue I found is the sound and the brightness. I try to turn down the brightness but nothing happens. The bar shows that it's going down but it isn't. The sound is also broken. When I try to turn up the sound, there is a circle with a cross with the volume icon. I tried many things to fix the sound issue. I tried downloading new drivers, updating drivers, etc. The brightness issue, I don't really care but it would be useful if we can fix it too. I talked to Microsoft about the sound problem and they said the only way to fix it is to get Windows 10. Unfortunately, my mid 2011 Mac does not support Windows 10 on boot camp. I'm in desperate need of the sound in windows so I need your help! Thanks!
