Hello, does anyone know which are the sure ways to diagnose your onboard sound card and make sure that the chip is "dead"? Please share your tips, and ways you would check it. I tried to search this topic on the internet, but found very little, and mostly those are software-related tips. I am...

This is useless. This topic is out of its proportions now. The audio card is most likelly dead, so there is nothing else to discuss anymore.

First, Let me google that for you which proves that you don't know what you are talking about. Second, hello, Po-Len Yeh, could you please change your country in your profile to Taiwan, in order to avoid further confusion? Realtek, is, so good so great because it sells well? That's a very...

Nothing worked. It was definitely a windows bug. I gave up and formatted the drive. Thank you, everyone for helping me out with this. Even though, I was not able to solve my problem, I still learned a lot of new nice things! Thanks! :thumb::thumb::thumb:

For the love of God, can someone please tell me what the hell is going on with this pile of crap on my motherboard? I swear, I will never, ever buy a motherboard with the Realtek audio chip on it. I will buy only motherboards with the Creative chip, not the Realtek garbage. I have always been...

Strange, I run vssadmin list shadowstorage as an Administrator, but still get "Access is denied". Nice program! Actually, it's amazing. :thumb: It also proves that I didn't went crazy, lol. What can I do with this, guys, aside from formatting the disk? What do you think could cause such a thing...

No, I do not have any hidden partitions reserved for the restore. I know I can reinstall the system, but I was hoping to solve it in a different way.

tried sfc /scannow - it found some errors and fixed them, but all files on the disk are still totaling to 31GB, while the disk C capacity is 59GB according to diskpart, list volume and disk C properties window. What is going on? How do I fix this, guys? :confused:

I tried searching but it did not find any big files. I tried cleaning page file on shutdown, but it did not help either. I tried full disk check, it did not help too.

Yes, it is completely dedicated to the drive C. I am using acronis disk director and it shows the same - the hard drive is fully dedicated to disk C (except 99mb system reserved)

Yes, it did not free up the mysteriously occupied space.

Yes, it has been.

All files are set to visible. Problem still has not been solved. Thank you for any help in advance!

Dear Forum, Summary: I deleted system's pagefile because I want to run the system fully on ram (32gb), but dxdiag still reports that 21gb is occupied by the deleted pagefile. I cannot find the file. It seems to be deleted, however, 21gb is missing from my hard drive. It is a painful situation...
