Just wanted some guidance on what to try. Under Sound in control panel, the speakers are checked as default device, showing as (Speakers,Realtek High Definition Audio, Default Device). I think that may be why its not playing any sound.but not sure how to change it. On the picture the front panel plugs show up bright.but the Analog "back panel" shows up as dimmed.


HOWEVER, this is where something doesn't seem right. Under Realek HD manager in control panel, the proper speakers are selected, and checked. I have tried the only other driver listed on asus website as well.no joy. I've read other forums about people's having issues with static and stuff and having to RMA their board, however I don't get any of that. They are working ugged into phone and when compute restarts, they click (that ground click when power is cycled.) Have two sets, one in front audio plug (green) and other as center set (orange/yellow) plug. Bios settings are audio enable, '97 front panel (it is) and digital out as HDMI. Installed the newest Realtek driver from asus website.
