If you check the Sound control panel, you may notice that you now have two sound devices. One may correspond to the SR1710NX onboard sound. The second sound device may be "audio over HDMI". Make sure the onboard sound is selected in the various places in the Sound control panel, to restore the motherboard sound path. HDMI is a technology capable of carrying video to your computer monitor. But, as well, HDMI supports the carriage of audio, such as in a home theater setup. What has happened, is the installation of the video card and its software, has "highjacked" the audio setting, which you should be able to correct in the Sound control panel. Paul |
