Hi
The other day my sound was great. For example I was watching a video with my wife and being my media player can control the volume by mouse wheel so I turn up the Laptop volume 100% and then would set the player to around 60% give or take.
Yesterday I was trying to fix a start button issue (Windows 10 bug from what I can gather) and I did what Microsoft suggested on one of their pages which was to go in and check for updates. I did this and it was a HUGE update took over 2 hours to install. The start button now works but the sound is now messed up.
Now if I play the same video I have to turn the laptop up to 100% and the player to 200% and the sound is still sort of low I mean you can hear it but is low in comparison and the voices sound like their talking in a glass or something sort of hollow and echo sound.
I have looked at device manager and it seems that the HD drivers are installed I even tried to update but it says they are up to date. I notice if I right click on my speaker icon and select playback devices or recording devices I use to have several listed in each area but now when I look at each it just shows 1 for each area rather then multiple.
Any ideas why this is and also why my sound is now so messed up compared to before the update?
