Audio input not responding

I am an experienced Cubase user and recently upgraded to Cubase Elements 15 from Cubase Elements 14. Since then I am unable to input audio. I use an HP Laptop and IXO12 interface. I have tried unsuccessfully to follow AI suggestions but still no Audio input. Can anyone help?

Please check for the latest drivers for your IXO12.
