Also, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver and disabling enhancements. The SFC scan came up with no violations. I tried disabling all of the startup services and the audio seemed to be fine when I disabled the Intel Matrix Storage Manager. Could that be causing the problem?

Hello and welcome to the forums



Don't worry, it's not rude at all

It would be best if you started your own thread This way the help you receive will be specific to your problem. Post a link to your thread on this thread and I'll come and have a look for you. This Intel Matrix Storage Manager revelation does sound interesting!
