This morning didn't start well for me. It had the following events.
1) Volume wouldn't work.
2) Volume Mixer freezes/not responding when trying to move the volume slider
3) Device Manager Froze when messing with the audio section
4) Windows said there were updates and it needed to be restarted, when updates supposedly finished the computer "Restarted" and it say on the restarting screen for about 5 minutes then it BSoD's
The following is the files that you guys require. Also I have no AV just Defender and Windows Firewall. In the past in Windows 7 "AMD High Definition Audio" froze my volume control so I had to disable that, in this case it did NOT help.
NOTE: I do not have an SSD nor do I put it into sleep. I am also dual booting windows 7 and 8. Although in the past it BSoD'd when it was only windows 8.
Also last night I installed "BlackX" software, it's a hotswap dock with a USB cable that you can just plop a HDD in and press the power button and view the files on the drive.
I also looked up the BIOS for my motherboard, and this was on the download page:
It says windows 8 ready, but I don't know if it was already Windows 8 ready or that's the NEW drivers. I don't know how to check the date of my BIOS nor does it specify a date for the supposed new BIOS on their site.
I am also on Windows 8.1, I have connections. [DEL]I also have no sound, not sure why.[/DEL]
