Today I purchased a Toshiba Satellite Laptop (if any additional information is needed to solve this issue I will provide it, but I'm not sure what kind of information to specify otherwise - also, I'm completely new to Windows 8 and these forums and I apologize if this topic has already been posted - if it has, my hours of googling didn't find it.) There is an issue with my audio - everything sounds like it spikes around 1.5khz, the high end (6khz+) is very unclear and there's basically nothing in the low/bass end at all. (Basically it sounds completely terrible.)
I have determined that this issue is related to my sound driver (Conexant SmartAudio HD) and that this driver is up to date. I know that this is the source of the problem as my ASIO driver works perfectly and sounds normal on the same system. I am unfortunately unable to use this driver outside of specific software, though, hence my problem.
I am, however, having trouble locating and installing a different driver to remedy this issue (as said, the current one is up to date.) Nothing seems to be compatible, allegedly. I'm in need of general advice as I'm not sure how to fix this after trying for a good 7 hours.
