Hi there,
An audio issue has been an absolute nightmare for me lately and I just can't figure out what causing it.
Before I start though my computer specs:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
Memory: 4096MB RAM
System Manufacturer: Packard Bell BV
System Model: iXtreme X2712
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium SP 1
Display: ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
Sound built-in to the motherboard.
Now I have already have tried common resolutions such as downloading correct drivers for the motherboard from manufacturers website and re-installing Realtek High Definition Audio Driver.
My problem is that my audio will only work if I turn my computer off for about an hour then reboot it. If i restart my comp and don't wait an hour my sound does not work. It doesn't pick up any devices such as my headphones in the playback devices area and Realtek High Definition audio driver does not appear in device manager. Its almost as if I had no sound card at all it just does not work until I turn the computer off and wait an hour and turn back on again.
This is probably the strangest issue I have ever come across and driving me up the wall am I missing something obvious here?
