INTELAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0257&SUBSYS_17AA2294

What this hardware ID is

INTELAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0257&SUBSYS_17AA2294 is the identifier Windows uses for one exact piece of hardware. It is the reason a driver either fits your device or does not - Windows matches this code, not the name of your laptop. Here VEN_10EC is the company that made the chip (Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.), and DEV_0257 is the chip model.

Every driver listed below declares support for this exact code, so any of them will install on your device. Choosing between them:

Take one that lists your Windows version and architecture - the badges are in the last column.
A newer release date is usually the better start. If the newest one misbehaves, an older release is a perfectly normal fallback.
SHA-256 verified means we downloaded that file ourselves and published its checksum and contents.
