New build issues...won't boot C5 error

a digital to analogue converter (dac) , external device that boosts audio to headsets, normally used as onboard doesn’t have the power to drive high end headsets/speakers
 
can you uninstall nahimic?, does it show up in control panel, look for nahimic and nahimic companion, remove both

while in control panel navigate to programs and features and see if anything to do with nahimic is in the list if so remove it
 
audio's screwed up somewhere, if its a new install just wipe and start again, BUT when you go to install the audio, download the file but dont install from there, go to device manager and under audio install realtek only, that should leave out the nahimic part hopefully

So, I've found some chipset ddrivers I hadn't got got, although I installed everything off the MOBO board page. restarting now see what happens.
 
I've searched my system and found all traces of Nahimic so I'm guessing I should delete them?

I think we're going to have to do fresh windows install if this doesn't work, been at this for 3 days now.

you using 3.5mm jack into the motherboard?, have you plugged into the correct port, older boards you would need to use the port coloured green for speakers/headset, double check the manual to see which port you need to use

before we go any further can you confirm the exact motherboard and revision (if any ie: 1.0, 1.1, 1.2)

GIGABYTE AORUS X870E REV 1.0 ah, thats different from what you said in your original post have you been to the support page for this motherboard and downloaded the drivers?
 
can you check your headset works on something else, just to rule it out being bad, really odd even after a reinstall audio still isnt working, was the motherboard new or second hand?
