Sorry for the delay, I was without a pc for many weeks.
I have a sound problem. My pc freezes for about 8 seconds, I have to reinitialize the video, I have notification that a jack has been unplugged or which device did I just plugged. The Realtek panel appears when I click the notification and if I just ignore it, the next time everything freezes. Sometimes it occurs every hour and sometimes sooner, sometimes twice in a row. I sent the motherboard for repair and they sent me another one and still the same thing. I phoned them back and ASUS wants me to play the same game again, to send them back the new motherboard. So I decided to buy a Creative lab sound blaster AE5, uninstalled Realtek drivers and I still have the same problem reoccuring.
I spent lots of dollars for this new pc to be a performing and lasting one but even with supposedly top products, it is totally deceiving with this ASUS Motherboard.
