I'm using the intel dx58so board and 7600 x64 ultimate. I was playing the latest call of duty game yesterday and stopped to take a nap, when I woke back up there was no sound, and even with it set to display disabled and disconnected devices the sound portion of control panel had no recollection of there being a realtek driver. I also lost the icon on the system tray which was the realtek hd audio controller.

Rebooting did not fix it it. :( I installed and reinstalled the drivers, however I cant figure out how to uninstall them.
