As per the title, I no longer can record using 'Line-in' and 'What U Hear': both are showing as "currently unavailable".
These options were working for years, up until a while ago.
OS is Windows 10, updated, no particular issues.
So:
Uninstalled the Audigy's drivers (using Revo Uninstaller, as Creative's uninstall file mysteriously missing ) and reinstalled latest: no change.
Bought and installed a new Audigy Rx: no change.
Reformatted C drive*, reinstalled Windows 10, reinstalled the sound card drivers before any other software or updates. No change (both 'Line-in' and 'What U Hear' showing as "currently unavailable").
Given that the sound card's apparently not the issue, and it's not an OS conflict with some other program, the only other cause I can think of is that I recently updated the mobo's firmware (from the BIOS using Asus's EZ Flash 3).
I've had a look around the BIOS and can't see any setting that may be responsible.
Any bright ideas?
For instance, is it possible (or wise) to revert the mobo to previous firmware?
Observations welcomed!
Thanks for reading.
* After making an image of the C drive using Acronis True Image, so I could simply revert to it. I also saved an image of the basic install, so i can go back to that too.
