21st September 2012 23:32 #2Greetings from Sweden!
I got my N76 last week and have been trying to find a solution to the "power up - power down" popping/clicking... Upon receiving the N76 I installed an SSD an performed a clean install of Windows 7. Currently I'm using Win 7 Professional (64 bit) and have not heard a click these last 30 minutes. It seems I might have found a solution. At least, I want to share what I have done. Actually, I signed up here just to share it. I can't believe my own ears!
So, I did a clean install and started installing the drivers one by one to see which one was causing the problems. Well, I only ever got to installing the Realtek HD driver and then it started popping and clicking as soon as a sound had been played. I hadn't even installed the driver for the ethernet card that so many have been blaming! And definitely no Wifi or display drivers...
So I sort of gave up and installed the drivers I needed, thinking that ASUS would already be on the job. I tried contacting them already last week, but they just told me to send it in... Realtek didn't even answer. I updated the Realtek driver from their website and it didn't help either.
And just now, I started messing around with the audio settings for the umpteenth time and now suddenly there's not a pop or a click in sight (no pun intended). Here's what I did:
1. Right-click the Realtek icon in the system tray.
2. Go to "Audio Devices"
3. Click on the "Recording" tab
4. Right-click and choose "show disabled devices" and "show disconnected devices"
5. Right-click on "Stereo Mix" and set it as "Default Device"
6. Right-click on "Stereo Mix" and go to "Properties"
7. On the "Listen"-tab, make sure "Listen to this device" and "playback through Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)" is selected
8. On the "Advanced tab" I changed the default format to 16bit, 192kHz and deselected everything under "exclusive mode". I think I got some message about a program or a process being interrupted, but I just accepted it (I have the same settings for the speakers on the playback-tab!).
And it really seems to have solved the problem!
The microphone still works (at least in Skype) and there doesn't seem to be any side effects except eerie silence... Even the sub is working. I'm not sure you have to do all the steps, but I thought I'd share them with you anyway.
BTW the pops and clicks return when I set the microphone as default. So I definitely think I might be on to something with this one. I hope I covered everything here. If it's unclear or doesn't work, let me know and we can compare the rest of the settings.
I wish you all a pleasant and pop-free weekend!
