I had gotten the eclipse a while back ago( Red Case) and recently got a audio malware. I solved the problem but in the process of recklessly uninstalling programs I had uninstalled the audio program stated in the title. Can someone point me to some links to the specific one used???

Your best course of action is to get your motherboards manufacturer and model number, like Asus z170i Pro, as an example, and go to the Asus website, Support, and download the driver. That should do it.

Good luck.

I just tried getting the link for Asus but the site was temporarily down for maintenance.

Thanks I'll try it when I get home.

Just as a future reference, the base Realtek drivers on their website will work, the benefit of your product-specific version is that it tends to have a few more bells and whistles, but that said, manufacturers (such as Asus) tend to update their drivers far more slowly than Realtek updates the base drivers, so if you're ever in a situation where a manufacturer audio driver is causing an issue, try out the Realtek drivers (or even just the generic Windows HD audio drivers) to see if it fixes anything.

Awhile back I updated my audio driver and it causes my right speaker to just stop working, so I switched over to the basic version and it fixed it, and then switched back when the manufacturer had addressed the issue.

Unlike generic GPU drivers, generic audio drivers have actually come a long way in regards to performance quality. Strong
