I've got a couple minor problems with my Z68 Pro3-M. System specs are as follows:
CPU: i5-2500k
RAM: 8GB 1333 g-skill
GPU: asus GTX 460 1gb
MB: asrock pro3-m
OS: Windows 7 pro 64 bit
The system was working fine until yesterday when two (seemingly) unrelated things happened. The first is my speakers stopped automatically muting when I plugged headphones into my front panel audio port. I tried fiddling with the realtek settings and couldn't find anything to fix it, and reinstalled drivers to no avail.
The second problem is virtu spontaneously stopped working correctly. It didn't throw any errors, but games and video benchmarks started trying to access the HD graphics instead of the GTX 460, and understandably failing. I should clarify that I was running in virtu-d mode, with my monitor directly connected to the graphics card and not the motherboard video ports. Again, I tried messing with virtu settings, and tried reinstalling. The only thing that worked was uninstalling the intel HD graphics drivers and virtu entirely. I can play games again, but it'd be kinda nice to be able to use quicksync. I can't figure out what could have caused these two things to spontaneously stop working at roughly the same time, although both roughly coincided with installation of the Witcher.
Any thoughts, ideas, or help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
Apologies if this is a duplicate issue, I ran a search for virtu and sound issues before I posted and couldn't come up with anything. If there's a topic that covers this already, please point me in the right direction.
