[SOLVED] Realtek HD audio causing Sub to Hum

[tlavanway3]

Hello i'm having a problem with Realtek HD audio causing my sub woofer for my computer to make a deep Constant Humming noise when the computer is turned off. and this humming only happens when i have the Realtek Driver installed. I installed the Driver from the motherboard Website as i have done many times but i have never ran into this issue, When useing the Default windows sound driver that windows gives you upon a new windows install the humming never happened, only when i install realtek the humming begins. and it forces me to turn off my computer speakers for the humming to stop so i can sleep in peace. my motherboard is a Asrock Z270 extreme4

Try a BIOS update on the motherboard. You can also try with an add-on sound card, can get a pretty good quality one for about $30. Or contact Asrock support and see what they say.
