I would think that none of the above would be needed. I then completely deleted the entire drive that the OS was on for the install. Sound works fine though it, however.Īs mentioned, I both did a windows reset and then followed that up with a clean install via usb made with the media creation tool (chose to not keep files). One thing I noticed is that when I have the front panel connected to the motherboard, the realtek sound manager indicates that something is plugged into the headphone-in.

In realtek audio manager ive changed advanced settings back and forth between muting rear input device and disable front panel jack detection to see if that did anything. Tried both voice recorder and Discord for voice Made sure mic levels are at 100 and that windows didn't block mic usage Looking at the sound options, I have Alan's controller information throughout including soundalive, sounz, and dolby tabs.ĭisconnected front ports from motherboard and tested each individually

Chose not to install sound blaster this time. 2) used software RegistryDeleteEx to get rid of render and capture in regeditģ) Used DDU to get rid of realtek and soundblasterĤ) Uninstalled all drivers for audio in device manager, both in audio inputs and outputs and in sound, video and game controllers.Ħ) Went through and did all of this againħ) Installed the fixed driver by opening the exe and letting it do its work.
