been doing some digging regarding my black screen crashes on bf3.

turns out its the realtek hd audio.

so what options do i have?

my gpu has hdmi could i disable the realtek and use my gpu for audio?(if i do this will i lose the front panel use?)

buy a sound card?

whats the best way to disable realtek???
 
yeah ill probably stick with the rear aswell...but ill do some testing with both..

suppose im going to have to get a nice 5.1 headset aswell now...lol...
 
theres defo a problem with it for me..every thing is upto date..

TBH for 23 quid i think a sound card is a nice little upgrade, ill also probably buy a decent 5.1 headset aswell ive got a half tidy set of turtle beach's now...
 
well just installed the sound card and ive just played 5 rounds of bf3 mp with no hardloacks i did have 1 crash between games but was able to kill the process to get out..

so fingers crossed this has fixed my hard lock problems..

i gotta say wish id of bought a sound card earlier what a difference bf3 now sound awesome even more so when its on war tapes...
 
yep all was upto date and i never installed the nvidia audio drivers..

there was just a issue with it but it looks like the sound card has sorted it, there loads of peeps with this problem happened in bc2 aswell.

im so glad i got the sound card now anyway...
 
yeah mine wouldnt of fitted either but ive took 1 of my 580s out as i really dont need 580 sli theres only bf3 that uses both to max.


ive got a antec df-85 as well and it a big case...
