So, let’s dig in.

Error Message

This issue sometimes is accompanied with an error message, and sometimes not. When an error message appears with the issue, it is likely to be one of these.

• “The application will exit”
• “Failed to create Conexant Audio Factory, The SmartAudio will now exit”
• “A conexant audio device could not be found”

The solutions discussed in this post have known to work for Toshiba, HP, Dell, Asus, Samsung, Acer, and Lenovo computers. However, there’s no reason why they wouldn’t work for a computer of any other make.

Solution 1 – Run MSConfig

A Microsoft Utility, MSConfig is also called the System Configuration Utility. You can use it to decide what services and programs load automatically with Windows.

Here are the steps to follow.

1. Click the Windows icon in the taskbar, type “run” in the start search box, and then press Enter
2. Now type msconfig and press Enter
3. Click the Boot tab
4. Click the Advanced options tab
5. Check the Maximum Memory box and insert the value as 3072 (If you find that this value is unavailable, then insert the value as 4096)
