It's hard to explain, so let's give it a shot... Occasionally, my audio doesn't work. A reboot typically fixes the problem, but I want to see if there's a permanent solution. The board was bought used, and was working perfectly fine for the last two months until one day it just didn't work when I turned it on. Ever since then, I would occasionally get no audio output to the analog or to the optical, but only when turning the machine on, rebooting, or waking up from sleep mode, never randomly when it has been on and working. I had my cpu/ram oc'd, but bringing everything back to stock settings doesn't help.
I think someone should just tell me that the problem is unfixable so I have an excuse to pick up a nice sound card.
