Win 7 Ult 64 Audio worked, and now it doesn't?
Hello everyone, first post here.
I am a college student with a computer that I built myself. I currently run a Gigabyte EP45T-UD3LR MoBo which has the capability to run 5.1 surround sound (maybe better?) and has some other neat things that I enjoy. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 a month or so ago and everything was working fine until I went home last weekend for Thanksgiving Break.
I unplugged my logitec surround sound system, packed up my computer, and drove home. When I setup my computer at my house I wanted to listen to some music but I did not have my speakers, so I plugged in my 5.1 headset. After I plugged this in I got a pop-up asking about my "new audio device" or something, basically a configuration pop-up. I clicked through quickly as I have never had to actually setup the audio before, and sure enough my audio stopped working... kind of.
For those who are familiar with gaming, I was on Ventrilo (voice chat program) and could not hear anyone even though my mixer showed that there was audio occurring. However, I could still hear youtube videos and things like that from Google Chrome. I didn't pay much attention to this and I just got back to my fraternity today, plugged in my surround sound and now my audio is completely non-existent.
I've updated all of the drivers, I've messed around with the settings, I searched high and low and nothing anyone else did seemed to help. My card and speakers are being recognized, they just aren't working.
Any help would be monumentally appreciated!
