Two more questions Chastity, or anyone that can answer this. If you look at the attached picture, it lists several audio devices above the Realtek device:
All of the non Realtek devices are Microsoft (properties tab) in each instance. Is this right? I have un-installed all of the sound drivers / software twice. The MS devices re-install on restart. I then re-installed the realtek and thx software.
Last part of this. Under other devices it lists Nvidia stereo controller. Before this last re=install, I did install the nvidia audio software. I had some minor issues (mainly gaming). Sounded like static. Also, when I would plug in my usb headphones (plantronics gamecon-777) the speakers would not mute. Not a huge deal, just irritating. Anyway, do I need to install the drivers for this?
Thanks for any suggestions.
